I discovered just how addicted I am to this mode of everything, how much time I waste? Fritter? Occupy? I really really missed being able to wish my Perth family Merry Christmas, despite not celebrating it here, I missed not being able to look up a word, or a fact, or google something strange, I missed email, and youtube, and streaming, and farcebook, and my morning cup of tea with you guys.
Most of all I learned Never Ever change providers at christmas time. Stupid woman.
Still, all over now, I'm back...
And popeye? Me too, this holiday thing is bloody exhausting...
Oooh not fun, hope you had plenty of books. And yes, I'm guessing that most of us are addicted too; I did get somewhat tetchy last time there was some damn thing which went wrong for no good reason.
Well, part from me being a technoklutz..
It s a handy way to keep in touch, too especially as we age. There was a time when I kept in touch with distant friends & family by letter writing but these days its mostly onlline & my handwriting is abysmal now thanks to constant (dire) typing.
Cold & wet here, so much for more weeding. Did dreaded groceries earlier & although it wasn't as crowded as Xmas eve there were still quite a lot of people. I was lucky with the rain though & it didn't start again till I was home.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
