Connect???!!!
The first thing that came to my mind is digital connections.
When I was working I was digital connected more or less 24/7 – today I only have a mobile (Nokia 3310 -red) that only rings, take photos and I can send text on. It’s wonderful to have my life back.
No longer do I get hysterical if I forget to bring the mobile with me when I leave the house. Both me and life has turned a lot more relaxed. LOVEit!!!!

funny how our priorities shift
Beth, yes … really!!!! For me to be free from the mobile glued to my ear … is FREEDOM!!! And for the internet, I use my PC!
Some great connections, Vivi!
Thank you, Sue … how are you doing those days with the lockdown in the UK???
It isn’t yet a complete lockdown, but I have been self-isolating for over a week now, Vivi. I’m Ok because I have one or two people around who will get me stuff, and I am video calling people every day to stay sane….shall send yo an email. How are you?.
I’m glad that you have people that looks after you … and your needs. Wonderful. Over here we can move freely and everything is open. So I’m doing fine. Using public transport for my hospitals appointments – but I use a lot of hand sanitizer when I’m out and about, have a little bottle in my coat pocket. And I keep a social distance to people. But I was to the hairdresser today, not allow to wash my hair yet because of my eye. Hard to keep a distance there. It was only me at the salon. I’m out and about so much as possible and enjoying the lovely weather … never know when they change the rules for us. We still have open borders. Sue, stay safe and healthy. Need you !!!
Thanks, Vivi! I’ve sent you an email
Sue, got it – thanks.

I like your post! I think we are a little too connected with our electronics 😟
Thank you so much … I think we are far too connected with our elecronics and not with people.
I agree 😟
