I love Facebook. I can get pictures from my DIL and DGDIL of my grandbabies. I have reconnected with family members I never see anymore. I love being able to talk to a childhood friend who is in the Phillipines as a missionary and I haven't see in 40 years!! I enjoy being apart of a group of friends that I can talk to anytime I want to. Some are family and some are quilting friends or school friends. It is a good thing in my life. I am my DHs care giver 24/7 so it is a way to keep in touch. We don't leave home much.

Note to teens and young people. Many employers are now doing a Facebook background check - which gives them information about your friends, activities, interests, where you've lived, and your political views (should you have one) etc. I've also heard of mortgage lenders doing the same thing. Just saying - beware what you say and what you do.

I love Facebook! Earlier tonight we were having a real windy rainy storm and a neighbor's trash can blew over into my yard. I said something about it on Facebook and he was outside picking it up within a few minutes. I didn't have to call him or email him... he just knew LOL

I have a fb account- to keep up with my kids mainly. I post often- if I don't I get messages from my "followers"- my friends who read my posts because I do my best to put something positive there. I use it as a motivator for others.
I have my settings set to friends only and friend only people I know.
Just remember- whatever is on the internet doesn't die and is public domain. So be careful!
