^Very boring! In my situation I’m at a lake house for a few weeks so having something I can put on, swim in, shower in, make sand castles in…. It works. It’s still boring though lol
I’m sorry but you had my pity up until “I’m staying at a lake house”. I would gladly slap on one of anything to chill at a lake house. Come back when you have a truly sad story and I will break out my empathy. PS, any nice clouds over the lake pictures?

I will put an Apple watch on my wrist . . . never. I have no problem with technology and own an iPhone, but I'll still be rotating and wearing my collection of Omegas ranging from 5 years old to 70 years old when generations of Apple watches will be taking up space in landfills.
It's actually kind of nice to have while kayaking, I have the one with cell reception so I don't have to worry about dropping my phone in the lake 😀 but I totally get what you're saying. I usually have my phone in a dry bag, but maybe I need a little life jacket for it too so it doesn't sink.
Why have a phone when you are out kayaking...
Now the wrist watch...that was a simple tool that did one thing brilliantly...it told you want time it was. And that is all I have ever wanted it to do.
Maybe you get stuck somewhere, or there's a family emergency, or an unexpected storm is rolling in, or you want to take a photo of something, or you want to take a video of something, or any one of a dozen other reasons someone might have a need to use their phone.
Did you pitch a fit when they started adding date windows to watches?
People have dealt with getting stuck, family emergencies, unexpected weather, etc., for thousands of years. And if you are out in a boat, hundreds of miles from home, what are you going to do about a family emergency? As for photos, if people liked to take them, they usually had a camera...from cheap Brownies to Leicas. Cellphone cameras have simply created a garbage heap of photos about nothing...people emailing each other a picture of their hamburger, or taking selfies of themselves standing in front of someplace, instead of being more focused at looking at where they are. I'm not a fan of Date windows...none of my three Omegas, 4 of my five Rolexes, none of my other watches have them. I know what the day is because since childhood, my brain has always kept track of that without any problems.
Awww, Jill's nice!
