My kids do live all over the country,but FB is not for me.Tried it for 3 days,got about 50 posts/etc from ppl wanting to be friends....most of whom I didn't know/remember.....or care to know.
Once I decided to get off FB,it was amazing how long it took to be sure I was OFF.Not easy & it's time consuming.I read that many ppl who think they're off FB haven't completed all the steps required, so it's like a sleeping dog, ready to nip you again. Just not for me.The i Phones,i Pads etc works fine for my family.Don't care if they're on FB....just isn't for me.

I don't care what people are doing i.e. what they had for dinner, who they don't like, etc.
I do realize that it is nice to have when kids live all over the US and it's a good way to keep in touch but I still wont get one.

I have 2 Facebook accounts, one for family and the other for my quilting shops, friends, AccuQuilt, and anything I come across that has to do with quilting. That account I check everyday but the other- my family accOunt is lucky to get checked once a week if then. I am the oldest of 7 kids and have lived away from them for 40+ years. Thought it might be good way to keep in contact but NOT! My one brother asked, why I was picking on Him and I wanted to reply why was he so stupid? Don't think family FB is for me.

I am on facebook, but really do not like that anyone and everyone can see what is entered. If I want to communicate, I would rather email.
This board is wonderful and I do not know how I ever made it without it. Love you guys and gals.
