I decided last week that, even though I’m on social media, I won’t check it as often as I used to. Now, I have so much time to do much more. I do like chatting with my friends who used to blog but are now on Facebook. I’ve never met them in person but I just know they are simply lovely. Plus, via FB, I can get a good feel about things happening around Guyana and people’s opinions. I’ve met others on IG too.

I do feel better not scrolling, scrolling.

I’m so sorry about the PD. My grandpa had it and we grandchildren used to help him in many little ways.

It’s so lovely when social media allows us to make real connections, I made some lovely online friends over the years!

Thank you, it’s a tricky disease to manage xxx

I was forced to quit Instagram and Facebook last year when I reacted badly to those awful tablets, because I was literally not well enough to use them. I still have them - I just don't bother with them any more. I'm on Bluesky for the "The Archers" feed, and I have a trundle through Reddit most days, but I rarely post there. I'd rather read, write, draw, paint, sew....

Perfect. And here on substack there is such a decent amount of well written articles and people to follow.
