Once we move out here there was not internet for several years and dial up was horrible because the phone lines crackled so much it would kick be off and SLOW OMG. Then we got DSL 3.0, still so slow I couldn't even watch a Utube video with out the buffering but now TA DA CABLE. We never would have thought Cable would come out this far, it's still far from perfect we still get buffering if we try to watch a movie on Amazon Prime, but I can get to watch things from the library and my husband is looking into classes by Lynda.com because its free, the library has 50 licenses so only 50 people can be on at a time, so do it in the middle of the night when everyone is in bed. Now that I'm retired, thank God the miles I was putting on my car going back and forth to town, I hope to spend more time visiting and maybe we can get the buy and sell board active again and I can start a new spread sheet. Freebies are pretty much unheard of now but that is how I figured out what I liked and they always included great coupons. So folks I will do my best to visit this board and with a little work we can bring it back to what it used to be.
