My Facebook Problem

I haven't logged on to the app in more than a year.... probably closer to two years.... or for however long ago I decided Mark Zuckerberg was unworthy of my clicks.  

The reward was immediate - I had so much more time.  

I checked on FlapJilly's softball team's fundraising posts until Little Cuter said she'd send me the donation links directly.  Other than that, I was gone.

I use it to keep up with my family and friends.  That's what most people reply when I say I'm not on the platform any more.  

I now have textual evidence that this is true.

Based on the number of phone calls and texts and emails I received last week, I surmised that Little Cuter had posted a picture of our last visit in Indiana.  Their comments told me that most of our adventures had been documented and shared.  

It was wonderful that people reached out.  I was benefiting without doing the work.  As long as this keeps happening, I see no reason to return.

  1. Yes, I too saw the pictures. They are wonderful. I even commented about your grandson giving you a ride without a helmet. As I always tell people, you do YOU, and I'll do ME. Me loves social media.

    1. We were 90% of the way home from a LONG walk. He offered to rescue me and I gratefully accepted. The kids ALWAYS wear helmets - at the risk of losing their vehicle FOREVER.
