And ...I also hate predictive texts on smart phones. And I still prefer the feel and sounds of an actual keyboard when typing--I'm so much faster at using an actual keyboard than trying to type on a touch screen using just my thumbs.<br /><br />I totally understand your frustration with tech. I had to unsync my email from my phone--I didn't like how nosy the phone was with my private contacts. And I didn't like how it buzzed at all hours everytime I got an email. It was annoying! If I wanted to check email, I'll go online. If it's something urgent or important or an emergency, I expect a phone call/message/text. I didn't like how work emails were buzzing on the phone during my off hours. It was like there was no separation of my work and private life, and I hated that! So I unsynced my email from the phone, and I feel so much better and less stressed.<br /><br />Technology should make our lives easier, not harder. eroswingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06678990077292314028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2459059251716959307.post-37472071769008981102017-02-14T14:36:48.855+11:002017-02-14T14:36:48.855+11:00Prinny, dear, when it all gets too much for me can...Prinny, dear, when it all gets too much for me can I come and sit in your garden and no one will be able to find me because I don't have a cell phone!I took my last one to some place that had a recycle bin for dead phones.<br />dinahmowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00052642938090553088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2459059251716959307.post-40830264990055181212017-02-14T13:38:03.433+11:002017-02-14T13:38:03.433+11:00Back up any important files on that old computer! ...Back up any important files on that old computer!

The clunk of reading glasses cases all around the table when handed the menu in a restaurant with friends just serves to remind us we are not spring chickens any more! There is, however, absolutely no excuse for the sheer aggravation of the dreaded "smart" phone - within a year of owning one, I ditched it and now have a teensy easy-to-use Nokia again...
