So true too. I don't ever remember needing a phone at that age! <br /><br />Thanks, Shirley and Jennifer for posting.

I still have an iPhone 5 and I refuse to get another one, even though the battery dies just looking at it. Facebook is time consuming and hate myself when I waste time on it but I do like for finding authors and seeing what books are coming out. Janine your comments are great. My husband and I struggle with the cost of our phones and it just amazes me when you see 10 year olds with nicer phones and cases than us. Jenna my mom just made the switch to an iPhone as well. Good job on setting up your computer!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17767162556367538305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972342285468874854.post-62752164600573819852015-10-08T12:37:55.615-04:002015-10-08T12:37:55.615-04:00I love being able to keep in touch with friends an...I love being able to keep in touch with friends and family that don't live close by.

The water had gotten inside. :( <br />I limit my time online, but should schedule time for it to be consistent I suppose. But half the time, I don't know what to post.

I'm impressed. I'll admit, I'm terrible when it comes to technology. As for the phone, I still have my flip phone and I'm fine with it. I agree with JCP.<br />As for Facebook, I work a full-time job, outside the home. I find it difficult to keep up with all of the social media and still find time to write...but I guess it's something we have to do.Jill Weatherholthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12935341991222337363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972342285468874854.post-24397384542470242462015-10-07T15:52:02.190-04:002015-10-07T15:52:02.190-04:00I hate that I can't have a holiday dinner with...I hate that I can't have a holiday dinner with extended family and people are so focused on checking their phones that they don't really have a conversation anymore. they're so connected they're disconnected from the actual moment.jcpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972342285468874854.post-43529848608648054712015-10-07T10:19:20.732-04:002015-10-07T10:19:20.732-04:00Hey Janine!
Thanks for stopping in and posting. ...Hey Janine! <br />Thanks for stopping in and posting. Yup, distractions are definitely out there - and I'm distracted easily. So yeah, it takes discipline to stay focused. LOL. I don't think I could write long hand though. I can type on the computer faster and my fingers don't cramp up. Thanks for the tip about your phone. And yes, Kathleen has a fancy new phone and an even prettier case for it. :) I'll have to check out what she has. <br /><br />Have a wonderful day!Jenna Mindelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08804728114002794092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972342285468874854.post-70530229842205869382015-10-07T08:56:25.427-04:002015-10-07T08:56:25.427-04:00Jenna, Facebook Canberra a real time waster! In fa...Jenna, Facebook Canberra a real time waster! In fact the Internet itself is a real time waster! I don't know how you wonderful authors keep on track with your writing when it's so easy to get off track just to check your email or google something. I know some famous authors still write long hand or use a typewriter for their books. I see that there would be less distractions doing it that way. As for a phone - ask Kathleen Irene Paterka, she has just got one, I'm sure she would have some tips. I myself are in the apple world and have an iPhone 5, which is old by today's standards but I don't care, thy are so expensive and I don't know how these young people change their phones like their underwear! Lovely to read your post, and thank you for your books you sent me, I had passed one on to my friend, and you is the next one up on my TBR list. Take care.Janine Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00661767812827454045noreply@blogger.com
