Growing up, the people I was with and I did not have a lot of technology around us, but it feels different admitting it, but it seemed love our parents were a little afraid of new technology! They believed the naysayers who predicted technology was here to ruin their lives plus take their jobs! And in a way, they were right since my Mom lost his factory job to automation, then with that, I grew a little wary of new technology plus didn’t embrace numerous variations in my home.
I barely wanted any smart devices in my space as an adult, but all that changed when my grandchild was born… She was such a smart cookie plus loved playing with his gadgets. I realized it was taxing for me to help his with his games because I didn’t expertise. So, I began reading plus even got a laptop to use in my new home when he came over. Another change I made involved my air conditioning. I had the outdated temperature control with a knob that I’d use to change the temperature settings for a long time, and but, when I went to visit my son plus his family, I saw they had a smart temperature control. It was such a superb machine that you could control using an app on a smartphone. Without letting them know, I called an A/C professional to my house to install a smart temperature control plus show me how to work it using my phone. I planned to surprise my grandchild on his next visit… Learning how to use apps was surprisingly easy, plus it even changed the efficiency of my a/c.
