Chatty, so true.
This Saturday we are having a tailgate involving about 30 of my Facebook friends and their families (we have known each other for years). Then the following week a whole bunch of us will participate in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. My kids and grands love all their extra "aunties and uncles" LOL!

diamond, don't you have a group of women that you met online that get together face to face?

Yes, Dotsie, that's my iVillage gang and we come from many states and meet yearly in a different city. We visit each other in between meets, and we talk every day online on FB and iVillage. And we also have a daily conference chat on Yahoo Messenger. I have been with these boomers for 10 years now.

Diamond, that is so cool.

Well girl, here I am, a new friend! I am on facebook, but just dont get it.. people post all the time and silly stuff, like doing laundry, etc....so there is no time for emails. Yes, I do think emails are losing to facebook,twitter, etc etc, but I LOVE emailing!!! Never liked talking on the phone, but LOVE emailing!!! I actually have friends that dont even do computers! PLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!! They want me to call them, but if I dont call my mom or my kids,whatdayathink??? LOL! Forget the old friends and just make new, but also get outta da house and socialize with solid humans! Volunteer, join a group, take a class, you know the drill! Fill your life and pretty soon you will say, WHO? to those who left you for that silly facebook!

Catwoamn, great attitude.

We like to email, and the younger generation communicates by texting; even more instantaneous.
