My husband takes his phone everywhere. He gets so frustrated with me because I always keep my phone in vibrate mode and if I'm not near it I don't hear it. I use my phone more for pictures than actual phone calls. My Iphone takes incredible pictures and a lot easier to carry with me than my Nikon.
Like your hubby when I am out walking I do carry my phone so they can find me if needed. This growing old isn't what I was led to believe.

It's funny. I don't remember TV playing a big part in my life growing up. After all, I spent most of the day (when not at school) outside playing with friends.
I do remember we had a black and white TV (I was hooked on Batman) back in the 60's. I can't recall when we got a color TV. Fast forward to 2025--my wife and I watch a 98" TV.
Oh, and that $1000 TV in 1954 is the equivalent to almost $12,000 today. What a TV you could buy for $12,000.
That's a very good point - it makes no sense to single out one month. I'm guessing she was referring to those parts of the world where March represents the beginning of Spring rather than Autumn, new beginnings etc., but even then, it's a bit of a sweeping statement.
Nothing ever goes truly to plan does it? - well said!
I bought my granddaughter an organizer for her crochet hooks instead of candy this year. Last year I gave her art supplies. My daughter handles the candy in our home. My other grandchildren when they were younger, I sent them things they liked to do. I'm not the candy supplier either.
I like the idea of pajamas, maybe next year that's what I'll get her new spring nightgowns.
I'm finding it very challenging after my knee surgery. Jeans that I used to wear don't have enough stretch around the knee (it's still swelling) and I don't want to buy new jeans. Even sweat pants are too narrow right now around the knee. Capris' hit right above the knee but smack dab in the middle of the swelling. I hate wearing shorts so I'm wearing knit pajama pants when I go out and while I'm home in a nightgown. The nerve spasms are still an issue.
I agree with you about the cut, I hate jeans that when I sit my butt crack shows so the rise is a huge deal which takes online shopping off the table for me.
Use these words in your entry: panic, don't, ultimate, galaxy, universe, restaurant, and sea food.
On a recent trip to see family, we celebrated by going for dinner at a very expensive seafood restaurant in Cairns. We ate outside under a galaxy of stars and I felt the luckiest person in the universe. The evening was still really warm after an extremely hot day. The air was almost thick with moisture as the humidity had been as high as ninety percent that day and the temperature over thirty four degrees centigrade. I hoped the seafood had been not left out at anytime as food poisoning was something I certainly didn’t want to experience. My son assured me the restaurant was one of the best in Australia and I was told ‘don’t panic, Mum.’ We enjoyed the meal and the service and best of all I enjoyed the ultimate pleasure of being with all three of my adult children.
