“wasting 25 minutes of my life”

I wasted 45 to 50 minutes today fixing password problems on one mobile app and my Amazon account. Seems like every day I have to screw around to keep all the crud working. The web, apps, computers, phones become a huge time suck.

I was reminiscing today about black desk phones with 100% reliable dial tone and great voice quality as well as getting nice, hand-written letters in the mail.

I'm 80. I still have my old land line. I love sitting on my couch and talking to friends. It's a time to relax. My 3 children have all tried to convert me.

The only thing that I might get is a button...for when I fall and can't get up. That's from the wise son.

Still no thing a ma jig with apps...

What I would love...a car where you have to roll down the windows...a car with the little side vents....I'm sooooo old.
