The Problem of Following Technology Fads

How many electronic gadgets do you have?
How many electronic gadgets do you have?
What do you do with all of your buttons? You buy a new shirt and there is often a little baggy or button sewn into the bottom of the front of the shirt. Do you just throw away the button? Do you toss it into your sewing basket? Or does it just end up on…
I had to chuckle. When I jumped on google to see how to “spell” picker upper (for fear there was some weird way of doing so), this definition popped up: “something that restores one’s depleted energy or depressed spirits; pick-me-up” Well that wasn’t necessarily what I was going for. Though I laughed because really, becoming…
What: Clothing Why: Do you ever stand in front of your clothes wondering what clothes to wear? Do you find yourself spending minutes upon minutes, mixing and matching colors, wondering if a certain color goes with another? Is getting dressed, cause you stress? I am here to tell you it should not. How do you…
It has been one of those winters! It seems as if no matter what part of the country you live in, snow keeps creeping in! Even though we live in one of the most northern states in the US (Minnesota), we have not received the snow that many other states have. I say that with caution…
Although I have just posted about how I rarely forget anything, and how I maximize my days, all with simple sticky notes, one thing that I value deeply is that my to-do lists and what I accomplish, do not make me who I am. What makes me who I am, is who Christ says I…

Great post. I have an iPad which I love. It replaced my laptop when it died. I work at home & my job provides the work PC. I have a cell phone but don't have a smartphone. I'm tethered to my computer all day so I like being away from it when I'm out & about.
I like this! Being able to step away IS a beautiful thing!
I love having a smartphone and it would be hard to live without once you get used to it but it is a convenience not a necessity. I moved up from a tracfone a year ago but still don't have a regular data plan. I mostly rely on wifi. So much is spent on expensive plans and high end phones.
The biggest negative I see is the distraction they are when with other people. Way too easy to keep checking phones or messing with them instead of spending time together.
That is exactly how I feel – once you get one, it would be hard to go back :). I agree too, that they can be a distraction – but I realize that even with my tracfone, I can easily pick it up and text someone, when with other people. It's a reality check and it's always something to think about! Thanks for sharing!
