Technology Blues

TECHNOLOGY BLUES So depressing being slow in, my head! Want to crack this iPad over my skull. and head for bed...... Wish I still were very young! And of new technology, no songs would be sung. No kidding, I do prefer, a non-technological age! When we read from real books, where I could turn a page. So far, all I can do best, is play a game? I feel one hundred years old and in need of a cane! My old iPad I can understand! But as for new technology… I want to bury myself...in the sand. 6/27/2021

The problem is you get used to one thing then it becomes obsolete in a short space of time. Tom

I have always loved the feel of a good book; though my tablet is handy, there's something magical about the page-turning adventure. Technology is changing too rapidly. Well chosen lines.

I agree Anne-Lise! A book is calming..and blue lights from devices stress all eyes, I use an dark background for reading emails and when I post! Your Candy Crush partner, Pangie xx

they keep changing it on me at my school, pangie. Every year I have to learn new things. Zoom had me so stressed but now it's easier. Practice is the key but when will you practice and who will teach you? I feel your pain.

It’s funny Andrea! When I got the new one, and had problems, I thought of you at school. ZOOm...not touching that yet. Yikes! Maria teaches me, Eddie is my iPad guru. Eddie knows the laptop, the iPad and play station. He made a movie on line when he was 10! It looks like amovie in a theater! Ebert would love it. ))) I can call Maria if IGet stuck. she works from home. I still have the old one to fall back on.....Pangie x pS, a book. The iPad for dummies is a book I should get))
