In reply to Diane@InMyOwnStyle. I think blocking and trying to protect your privacy is a smart move. It just seems like there is just so much room for privacy abuse these days, regardless of whether or not we are careful.

In reply to Les G. Wow. That's really compelling, isn't it? Feels awfully Big Brother-y to me.

In reply to Linda.

You’re too kind Linda. I only scrapbook once a year, on my “big trip” – a Thursday-Sunday long weekend. But, I get to devote 100% of my time and attention to it, so I usually feel pretty productive as a result. The hubby and kids manage ok without me for a long weekend. 😉

Yes, that’s happened to my husband. He bought something and never mentioned it and an ad came up for it, just like with you. They really must be watching us.

Amen!!! I have had the same thing happen. I too was kind of freaked out about it.

YES!!! I am convinced I am being listened to. Twice last week after two separate conversations hours apart with my family, I went online and had ads for something I mentioned in the conversations. That freaked me out and made me mad! Now I have to whisper when my computer is near even when it is off. Beware folks, this is no joke!

Where do you find the time for scrapbooking? I enjoyed it for many years and still possess a “collection” of supplies. But whenever I scrapbooked, the house and everything else in my life went to heck. I agree with you that there will be a historical gap of pictures that were never printed. But I think you sound like you have a VERY busy life. I’m now even more impressed with all your endeavors!

Yesterday I watched a PBS documentary on the Wind River irrigation system in Wyoming. Then I had an ad on FB for scholarships for students interested in irrigation systems. I think our phones listen to us, and our smart TVs as well. Creepy.

Amen. It’s very strange. I thought surely it was a fluke. Yikes. I’ve read that smart TVs, cars, phones - are listening. Especially Alexa etc. Smart meters. Ready to go off-grid?

Sorry about your razor cut! I feel a need to pass on a Dr. Oz tip – no peroxide on a cut. It causes more damage to the tissue. Better let your “doctor” know!
