Life Among The Dinosaurs

Do you remember life before the internet?

I am so grateful I grew up before the internet existed!

I think back to life in my 20s and I would have been a MESS if I had a telephone at my fingertips, never mind being able to text, or swipe, or google, or Find My Phone someone!

Ironically, the internet would have been really handy when I met my future husband in Jamaica in 1987. He lived in California and I lived in Connecticut. We learned about each other through letters and phone calls and at the end of five months I was on my way to live with him. Imagine that! I didn’t learn everything about him on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.
