I'm Stranded Here!

No internet, no cable, it should be heaven. Right?

I'm Stranded Here!

I'm trying to write this on my phone, first time, and nothing makes sense! So I'll make this quick. I've been without internet for three days now, and I wanted to let you know I'm still here, still thinking about you, and us, and what we could be talking about.

I have a draft on my laptop but I don't know how to transfer it. I've never used my phone as a work station, as much as I've always wanted to learn how, and now’s my chance.

It's quiet. No distractions. I can listen to music but the only public radio station I can pick up is in Canada. I don't really care what happens there. Sorry.

So I'm biting the bullet and learning how to use this damn thing to send stuff out into the world. I know one thing: I wouldn't want to do this all the time. It's worse than trying to type on a manual typewriter. It's pretty primitive for such a modern convenience.

But then it's a phone, isn't it?

Did I mention I have iffy phone service here? We'll see if this goes through. Let me know! As soon as the tech guy rows over to the island and fixes whatever is wrong, I should be back in the real world

Right now I'm working on how to add a picture. As you can see, I'm getting nowhere. I mean, the picture is on the damn phone!

See you soon. I hope.

It would be cool if you could write on a notepad, then take photos of the writing and post those. No keyboard needed! 💜📝

I would be lost. . .it just emphasizes how much we rely on our devices.
