Facebook

I know, I have heard them all, the many reasons why we should steer clear, but I can't, my family and friends are there!

My siblings are there, and we can catch up anytime we want.  It's cool to see what they and their kids are up to.

My friends from high school are there, and it's amazing that we are all 50 yr old adults, some with with kids!

My grown children are there, and it's great fun to touch base with them and see photos of their homes and loved ones and of their adventures. My grand babies are there, need I say more?

My church family is almost all there, and we can share prayer requests and info about topics we care about.

My neighbors are there, and it helps to build those valuable friendships. I have wonderful neighbors!

My reenacting family and community is there, they are a very special group indeed. Like minded in the old ways, and wanting to share that with others.

I also follow a variety of other groups, artists and news outlets. I go through waves of being on Facebook for hours, and then not going there for a few days at a time.  It all depends on my mood.

But I am grateful for the way I am able to use Facebook. I don't always care for the updates, but many of them don't effect me or how I use it. Those that do, I can adjust my settings, or close my account. I still have that choice.
