Eagles as in the birds. Someone started a thread here a little while ago, and out of curiosity, I gave it a look. Now, I'm addicted to it. LOL.

Thanks. I'm going to take a look at that, I'm a big bird lover from way back🥰

Today I’m just checking out the forum. I only check my email about once a week. I don’t need to check online to find out what’s going on cause my husband checks everything out and lets me know.

I check my email several times a day even though it may be too much but it's alright with me 😜

This is pretty much it. Maybe find something old on youtube later. Even getting tired of my games. I'm at the point now I'm only using the internet for important life tasks or research pretty much. I'm even reading the print editon of the newspaper again and collecting more books.

Those are very good ideas! 💡

A little research on landline phones. I'm getting rid of mine. I have the old type with copper wires outside. Telephone companies have already begun phasing out copper wire landline phones.

I switched over to "AT&T Phone Advanced" last year.

AT&T Phone – Advanced | AT&T Home Phone

Works fine, price about the same within a few bucks.

Basically, it's a box that connects to their cell phone service using VoIP. The service is tailored to "home phone" operation so there is no texting or anything.

You can plug your old phones into the box, or they can have a guy come out to safely hook the box up to your existing household phone wiring. I just plugged in a wireless phone base unit into it and have several handsets around the house.

There is a year commitment but billing is monthly. At this point I'm not decided about keeping it or getting rid of it and going with just my call phone instead.

If I wanted to, I could park my cell phone near the wireless base unit and connect them via Bluetooth. That cordless phone system can handle both a Bluetooth phone and a copper phone line at the same time. Any cordless handset that I have can answer or place calls through either "line."

I used to but I don’t have a bunch of people writing me. The only people who regularly email me are my brother and my husbands sister. I’m not that popular. 😭lol

I'm not popular either when it comes to regular people emailing me🤓 I get a lot of appointment reminders and bill receipts. Also some of my family emails me occasionally.
 
I looked up general info regarding a medical question I was wondering about.

I checked to see when a package is coming. ( tomorrow, not today😉😊)

I looked at SF.

Thank you for that reply. 🙂

Sometimes I am too tired to form sentences or to post much, but I like to glance around here.
Perhaps leave a few small indications that I did. 🙃🫠😊😁

That's very interesting. My brother loves everything historical!

well Ruthanne, anyone can do it. You just register a name online and pick a Campaign to work on and do what you can. Right now, they have

By Design: Frederick Law Olmsted & Associates​

Clara Barton: "Angel of the Battlefield"​

Rough Rider to Bull Moose: Letters to Theodore Roosevelt​

"To Be Preserved": The Correspondence of James A. Garfield​

and three others.

Have him google Library of Congress transcription. You just type what you see. You don't interpret. I always work on the typewritten pages. The handwritten ones can be difficult to decipher.
 
~Logged in to my bank and credit union websites so I could balance my checkbooks.
~Checked You Tube to see how to install ink cartridges
~H & R Block app to print out my taxes
~Checked a couple of news apps
~Went on Facebook briefly and spending more time here, as usual.
 
Today, I spent nearly two hours on the phone and internet trying to finalize my short term disability claim, because when I logged into the site, my wife's name came up instead of mine.

Shew. What a mess. I was given 3 different phone numbers, (all automated, of course), swam through all that red tape and finally got it straightened out.

YouTube knows everything don't they? I have to look up a video of my niece someone told me about a few minutes ago.

Do you pay a lot to get your taxes done? My brother pays $5000.00!!

I check my bank info every day too.

Were you able to install the ink cartridges? I just did that a few weeks ago on my Canon printer 🖨️
