Di, at Pensitivity101, is our host for Share Your World each week. Here are her questions for this week.

1. What frustrates you the most about modern day living?

It’s a 24×7, always-on world. Most of us are suffering from information overload, and in many cases it is misinformation or disinformation that we’re seeing and hearing. And with our smartphones and tablets, accessing all of the news feeds streaming on our devices, it is hard to turn it all of. I don’t know about everyone else, but I find it exhausting.

2. What was your favorite decade and why?

The pre-internet days, pre-social media days, when we had to communicate with each other face-to-face or by telephone or by written and mailed letters. Maybe the 70s.

3. What was your ‘best buy’ (for example: house, car, clothes, computer, etc.)

I don’t know. Maybe it was the first house I bought, a fixer-upper, in Riverdale, Maryland. A friend of mine and I bought it for $15,000 in 1970 and sold it for $95,000 two years later. That was a lot of money at the time. The equivalent of about $713,000 in 2024 dollars

4. Do you have any non medicinal allergies?

I am fortunate to have no food allergies and no allergies to airborne things like ragweed or polling. But I am allergic to Trump supporters. They all make me sick.
