I am 75 and do use the computer. However, the kids got me a really difficult cell phone which did everything but whistle "Dixie." I turned it back in and got a much simpler one, but I am still having trouble with it because the directions are so vague! Maybe I'll learn it one day. I try to learn something new each and every day and I intend to exit this world kicking and screaming. I also swim 3 days a week for 45 minutes, do Pilates and do Silver Sneakers and maintain a garden in addition to my quilting.

Ramona, you say it so well!! So many people think I too should be looking for another man since my hubby died for they can't seem to understand that this time in life is so freeing and we don't need a man to lean on. You go gal!!!!

I'm liking my life up to now, and hope it doesn't change that much. Got too much fabric that needs cutting apart and sewed back together and I want to paint the kitchen and..... |
I am 85 plus and couldn't live without my computer. I do writing of memoirs and genealogy on it as well as email and Internet. I quilt, of course, and enjoy this web site and the exchange of ideas and the quilt pictures.
