An On and Off Relationship

is what I seem to have with Twitter and Facebook and of couse this neglected blog.

I  signed up for Twitter a couple years ago and just really didn't understand the whole thing.  My sister-in-law and myself exchanged a few "tweets" and that was the end of it for both of us.



Then came Facebook and again, it was the latest craze, which again, I didn't wrap my head around the whole thing.

I just resolved myself that it was for younger people, not those of use who aren't so up with all the latest and greatest technology.  Geez, I think I have only had a cell phone for about 4 years!

The other day, I was talking to a friend who is also a seller at Etsy and she was talking about Twitter and tweets and re-tweets and hashmarks and bots and I laughed so hard my sides were aching.

"What's it all about" I asked ~ "I just don't get it!"

So being the kind friend she is, and with her taking me by the hand, I finally had a lightbulb go off in my head.

Though I can't say it is for me, at least I finally understand how it works!

So come on, whoever's left reading my blog   ...

ummmmmmmmmmm...I don't have the light bulb moment here..Does leaving a comment here mean I've tweeted you? .lol...I have facebook and tweet also..hang on..cripe had to scroll up to see if I said it right,,ok..Twitter,,LOL..can you tell I don't know what the heck I'm doing there..lol...

My facebook pretty much just has my blog posts going up on my profile page and I add on people who request to be my friend..and answer anyone that leaves me a message there,,other than that...that's about all I do..tweet tweet!!

lol! Love this post... Girl, I know how you feel...I don't tweet and never got into facebook either other than having an account which is about all I did, and the only reason I signed up was because my sister in law asked me to, so I could go on her page sometimes (which I rarely do either) ...I like blogging though...I think it's because I feel like I can see when I share an interest with someone and that makes it fun to have something in common...and I love all the pictures to see around blogland too :)
Well, honey, At least you had a light bulb moment on tweeting...I still don't have a clue lol!
Hope you have a great week friend..
Big hugs,
Queenie
