Mental Exercises Then, Phone Numbers. Now, Passwords.

Now I don’t, except for my dad’s, because he has a land line with the same number that existed before cell phones. The rest of the numbers I call are remembered for me by my phone. It feels weird to realize I couldn’t call Bubba or my daughter without my phone.

Now I remember passwords. Lots and lots of passwords.

Despite all the ways technology is disrupting things, I’m still getting my mental exercise.

    Passwords ARE a challenge. I have a system an IT guy shared with me once. It is simple and it works almost every time without having to remember them and each password is unique and hard to discover by anyone else. Be happy to share privately sometime if you’re interested. It makes life simpler…but then I have to find other things to stimulate my aging brain like editing The Hague Chronicle, doing crossword puzzles, relearning French, and doing Lumosity…; ) Hugs!
