Some of you may know that I broke down and got an iPhone on Saturday, and after a few lessons from my granddaughter Fiona, I felt as though I could somehow learn how to use it.
Well, there have been frustrating moments…but then I started practicing with the texting…and sending photos via text. I then moved to sending photos to my e-mail (like the photo above).
Here is a visual of my phone, as shown on Amazon. I have named her Phoebe. Or should that be iPhoebe? I do love naming my devices.
While I was clicking away on Amazon, I ordered a stylus set, to help with my clumsy texting.
And while I was practicing my camera usage (and sending), here is a stack of goodies on my coffee table: a book I’ll be reading next, and a box of chocolates I got for Christmas. Talk about obsessions.

What new goodies are you obsessing about today? Or are you perfectly normal, without any compulsions or obsessions? LOL

This is why I love my iPhone and my ipad…you can take and post a photo at whim…I have 3500 cat photos on mine…lol…you go, girl, click away!

Thanks for the encouragement, Patty…I have already started texting a little faster…perhaps it was naming the phone that did it? LOL

The iPhone is pretty easy to use. I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it no time.

Thanks, Sonia, I am just happy that several people in my family are already users of the iPhone.

I think it’s cute that you name your gadgets. You might have to list them all on your sidebar so we can keep track, though I do already know Sparky, lol!
I just got an iphone last month–being retired I certainly didn’t need one, but my kids upgraded their phone plan and I got mine for like an extra 10.00 a month so we added it. I have a different model than my kids so they don’t know too much about mine, but I am teaching myself: texts, photos, weather alerts, phone calls so far….and emoticons. I think I embarrass my daughter by sending constant photos of her dog when she is out with snarky comments and lots of emoticons, or are they emojis To think, when I was a kid we had no technology except a rotary phone, a record player, and a black and white tv, ha!!
What am I obsessing about now? Books. My son wants to go to Barnes and Noble while he is visiting, and you know I can’t go there and NOT buy at least one book, sigh.

Thanks, Rita…it has been fun playing with “Phoebe.” I often refer to Sparky, but I don’t think I’ve mentioned my laptop, Louisa May (like the author, LOL).
I live just around the corner from Barnes and Noble and go in there for coffee now and then…and almost always end up buying something…sigh.
I haven’t learned how to create emoticons yet…my daughter was too caught up in other things when I saw her last night, so I couldn’t get any tutoring…LOL.
