I am getting to dependant on Technology.

I have always said I had a fear of this happening in a wide scale.

Well, it has happened on a small scale.   I broke my new Smart phone. (Not very smart)  This happened early Sunday and I was out of town.

I stopped in and got a replacement and will have it in 2 days.  2 DAYS!!!!

I am lost for now I need to stay close to the office for any calls.  Usually I just have them forwarded to my cell and I can go most anywhere at anytime.

I am so lost right now.  I must move forward....but ever so slowly.  I don't want to end up in a worse jam than I am in now!

Now this is my style!!!

I feel for you, and I know how you feel. Our internet was down again for a few days, and I spent a lot of time at the office. I have my phone as a hot spot, but you get charged for all data used, so I figured it was cheaper to work late.

Ain't that the truth?!?! It is so amazing to me the technology that we are presented with, and the. Speed with which t comes to us. By the way, not sure how you broke our phone, but I am beginning to think that the number one reason for broken "smartphones" is not dropping them.....it is from THROWING THEM AGAINST THE WALL.

I think that's why so many people today are beginning to preach that we should divest ourselves of all that technology.  Of course that's falling on deaf ears in my case.  I gotta have my technology every day all the time!

William, I agree that I am too dependent on technology too, but I am ok with that.

It's hard to imagine how we got any business done just ten years ago without all these newfangled gadgets!

AS you know I am very low tech and it still works fine in my market area.
