Occasionally we clean the house, we and travel a ton. We have a couple of clubs we belong to. My husband runs a SCORE chapter. I would say our life is full and rich and busy.

I am able to keep tuned in to the forum whenever and wherever. I have an iPad that's cellular, a cell phone, and a laptop parked in the living room. I'm watching baseball, football, hockey and still online. I have made many good friends here on TOTV, so it is a social occasion for me as well.

Please don't judge, Warren. You can't be in another person's shoes. Maybe there are housebound people or handicapped people or ill people. Maybe there are more people like me who just enjoy being connected and informed, and the occasional debate.

I agree with what she said and there are many who use this forum to entertain themselves, not just to come on and make negative comments.
I have met MANY people on this forum who are now my "real" friends through banter and following them and getting to know them by their comments.

Today I have weeded the back area, gone for a swim, went to Laurel Manor for a ceramic's class, and came home and fixed lunch. Ran the sweeper on the lanai.

My computer is in my kitchen and I enjoy TOTV.
