My girls have dragged me kicking and screaming into a new world of technology…..they bought me an I Phone for Christmas! I have clung to my flip phone with the tenacity of a drowning woman clinging to the safe and security of simplicity. But now, with trembling hands, I have been handed with something that Sarah described , as fragile!
“Now, Mom, until we can get a shield for it, don’t dare drop it or let it fall! Sounds a bit like my Doctor’s instructions….”whatever you do, try not to fall!” So now, I have two entities of fragility!
This thing turns on by recognizing my face! I don’t even recognize that old women I see in the mirror daily! There is this girl named Siri that I can order around however I please. I just tell her “because I said so!” I haven’t uttered that since the last daughter graduated and moved out of our house!
This is all in fun, I do appreciate the phone and am sure it will be everything they say it will be. Love the fact I can dictate text messages instead of typing them. Thank you, my wonderful girls for the gift. We got a big laugh when Sarah told me the sales person she dealt with tried to convince her I was too old for an I Phone! Sarah said, “You don’t know my Mama!” Watch out new world, here I come!
