When my very old Kindle Fire finally died I figured we could do without. E-books are accessible on my phone, after all. My guy had other ideas. We often play Scrabble on it while dining out and he didn’t want to give up that tradition.
He found a decent deal and I discovered a new addiction. Love of language and word play led me to the game Word Carnival. I refuse to either spend money on this or watch their obnoxious advertisements.
Instead I simply take my Kindle offline. At least, that is, until I’m utterly stumped. Watching an ad or two grants me ‘gems’, fifty of which give useful hints. Then I log off again to resume play.
Why I still can't upload video stumps me. Oh, well.
It’s a first world problem, isnt’ it? Does it surprise anyone that moving graphics sometimes enchant Dandelion?

I upgraded my Nook to an iPad a few years back. I like having the functionality of the tablet, but I actually only use it to read. Do you play Wordle?
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried Wordle. Should I check it out?
DeleteMost of our kitties love to play games on the phone.
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteThat doesn't surprise me because Rosie loves my Kindle. Whenever it is out, she is extra friendly so I will put her youtube video on or Gizzy's mouse, a game for cats. XO
ReplyDelete~hugs~
ReplyDeleteI still like paper books. How old fashioned is that?
ReplyDeleteI agree! Sometimes, the convenience is too tempting. lol
DeleteI have never had or used a Kindle! And I am 69! LOL! I do love to read, though...but I read physical books.
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteNice that your husband was able to find a deal.
ReplyDeleteHe is my financial guru. :)
DeleteI read every day and /or evening.I detest most TV for years. And I certainly never watch the usual suspects...the channels with all the garbage and junk on them. I will watch the re-run channels. But they are charging so much for kindle books that I have always read on my iPad, that unless it's very special to me, I refuse to spend that money. I will get the physical book which I like better. Boy! I just went on a rant. XO . Sorry.
ReplyDeleteNo worries! lol Hugs, my dear.
