In The Not So Distant Past…

If you would call 30 years ago, not so distant, that was the time that we acquired our first computer. It was a no-name computer put together by someone who knew what they were doing and it gave us access to the World Wide Web. Back then we were tethered to a desktop and a dial up modem. If someone had told me we would have mini computers in our hands, I would have thought they were crazy!

I think about those times now with the need to constantly update myself on what’s going on in the world. Such a “fear of missing out”!

What did I do back when our only link was the desktop and dial-up? I might knit, or read, or watch tv, and back then, I was definitely playing with our son!

I am really glad all this technology wasn’t available to me 30 years ago!
