I don’t control the remote, to complicated for me as it is set up to run more than one apparatus. And I’m not much of a TV watcher a couple of hrs in the evening is my limit unless it’s a movie. I lost the TV habit back in the 70’s and don’t have a phone habit, was never allowed to develop it as a teen.
My hands used to by busy with quilting, crocheting, knitting as well as being a book worm like historical romance novels, time travel and books on treating homeopathic healing. But Arthritis and a torn rotator cuff put a stop to the busy hands. 1 doesn’t go away, the other to small to repair, after watching my husband go through a shoulder ball replacement where they went through the muscles of the rotator doing his rehab now at 7 months and still in pain, glad it was to small. I have to read at computer distance with a pillow to prop up a book.
Lord, I don’t even remember when the Commodore 64 came out, just that my husband could write code for the stupid thing. I wrote letters on it.
This is my first laptop. I’ve yet to figure out all the features of my Samsung Note 3 phone. LOL
I can’t live with out my 2 heating pads. I found a good one on Amazon, plush covered, with the option of 2 hrs or on all the time and 6 temp settings $35 well spent dollars. In fact I’ve bought 5 of them. Hubby uses one on his shoulders, I use mine on the Lumbar, gave my boys each one for Christmas, 1 has a bad back, the other a bad knee.
I use coconut oil for moisturizer. Cheaper than all those high $$ creams that don’t work. 2 of my daily meds do a number on my skin.
I all but hate the phone. Long winded people are the one thing that will make me lie. Phones are good for 3 things- vet/ hair appointments, ordering dinner, & I’m runnin late. LOL Oh & getting DH to pick stuff up on his way home.
Getting older is murder. I’m not in pain, but my fingers don’t work the way they used to, though. And do our fingerprints just get smooth or what? I can’t turn a page without monumental effort. It’s very annoying.
Kindles are much easier to read, physically, than books. But the ‘’convenience’’ features are really more of a nuisance than a help. I’m constantly losing my place & unable to get back to where I was or enlarging the type by accident or causing one of those ‘helpful little features’ to appear unbidden.
I probably need to read the instructions again (which didn’t work the first time, but whatever)
This is myyyy. . . fifth laptop- 2 Compaqs & 3 Macs. This one is my least favorite. It’s the stupid ‘’gestures’’.
I recently had my MacBook repaired & as soon as I get my pictures & recipes off of it, I’m going to switch back. This poor thing has been drowned twice, so I have to use an external keyboard, which is really a pain.
When both computers give out, that will be the end for me & the internet, probably. Unless something changes for the better with the new ones, I won’t be getting one. That ‘’one more stroke spoils the painting’’ has happened.
LOL My ‘’smart phone’’ is in the nightstand drawer. I went back to a flip phone. I still haven’t figured out the punctuation to text, but I CAN see the numbers on the buttons.
LOL What did we do before Amazon?
It’s incredible to me that people take all kinds of pills & put up with all kinds of side effects when a heating pad works so well. And my back sent me to the ER, close to tears, several times before I figured that out. The last 3 or 4 bottles of Tylenol we’ve had got thrown out when they were still nearly full.
They’re certainly excellent when it’s cold.
