Positive – I was able to stay in touch with people, easier, while in the hospital for long periods of time. I had my laptop and just went on with life…even did some consulting work!
Positive – I can see (instantly) how much damage my husband does when buying new tools…go online and see the balance drop in our account…drastically! ;)
Positive – I have several friends that live overseas and it is so much easier to communicate with them – internet, digital phone…so many things!
Negative – There is always a damn phone ringing somewhere! I do mandate OFF phone hours!
Negative – I seem to lose my husband, in the evening to his laptop. Mind you, he’s in the same room, but he’s lost to the internet. Usually scoping out some new tool he wants or a car to buy to restore.
Negative – Letters. I love a hand written letter! Not a typed and printed letter…actual pen to paper, letter. We’ve lost the fine art sending letters. :(
