We are getting closer and closer to the 80's. neither of us likes technology very much and while it's handy at times, it has become a huge time suck. We no longer have cable or internet at home, if we need to check on something we still have iPhones for a few more months, once we get through my moms estate stuff we're going to pay the penalty and ditch the smart phones and go back to cheapie flip phones.

I know part of it for me was being on-call 24-7 with my mom for over six years, now that my time is my own again I keep my phone shut off much of the time; the feeling of being unavailable is priceless. It is taking time for my friends to learn to contact me in advance if they want to do something since I may not check my phone for hours (if at all) that day.
