I love that someThing/noThing thought though ... and of course, with my hat I am now a walkingThing!!!!Sarah Salwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254413682817411906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959261.post-89134115533223084112008-03-01T08:54:00.000+00:002008-03-01T08:54:00.000+00:00Yep, Jem, it made me think what it must be like no...Yep, Jem, it made me think what it must be like not to be able to read.

Unfortunately finances didn't permit and so I've been waiting for your third Thing to come through so I could find out what the next Thing was. I must admit I think I would have been a bit disappointed at my first Thing being incomprehensible, but I'm sure I would grow to love it, just as you already are. Besides, isn't it better to have someThing than noThing?<BR/><BR/>Enjoy!Edie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05444558143565562235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959261.post-19324626933125079542008-02-29T15:01:00.000+00:002008-02-29T15:01:00.000+00:00As you say, very interesting to note your reaction...As you say, very interesting to note your reaction. And its certainly achieved something in that fact that you had one.<BR/><BR/>I think I would be the same as you - frustrated, intrigued, puzzled, feeling I was missing out on something. It shows how vital language and quick understanding is to us.jemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181038873568527264noreply@blogger.com
