I've never seen another one in person and have had to order the others online or through the local book store.

There were people back then who refused to do that because you were sending your bank routing number or credit card number through the open mail where it could be easily stolen. I remember the warnings. I don't order for other people, though. You're lucky to have folks willing to do that for you. <br /><br />We don't have a landline at all. I got the cell phone so people could reach me more than so I could call out. Back in the day I was needed more as a family resource than I am now.

If I want to order something, I get either Scott or Sally, who both have Amazon Prime accounts. So far, I haven't had the urge to buy anything online.<br /><br />Also, since I seldom go anywhere unless I'm with a friend who has a cell phone, I see no need to pay for something I will probably never use. I would have to get rid of my home phone if I were to get a cell phone. Since I am home more than I'm on the go, I see no reason for a cell phone. Well, maybe if I want to put photos on Instagram, but . . . .<br /><br />I can see why you would need one, especially since you like to take long hikes. If something happened to you on one of those trails, you would need to notify someone quickly. But for me, that's one way I save money each month.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28337090.post-38801124461950717932019-04-07T07:30:34.301-07:002019-04-07T07:30:34.301-07:00They are quite funny.

I've had good luck ordering used books online through the years, though not lately. I was hard to convert to a cell phone. I'm happy with it now, but it was a hard sell and an even harder sell to switch to a "smart" one.
