Guest guest Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Ingrid, that is so true, that a lot of people won't try to use the computer because they are afraid of it. We got our computer in 1986 and all it had was a word processor. I enjoyed typing up and printing letters to family and friends. I liked the way it is not like the typewriter; you can just go back and change the mistakes. Woohoo! We finally got connected to the Internet in 1995 when our town got connected up. Very soon after that my husband began Internet shopping for computer stuff. He bought a mouse. He called me to the computer and sat me in the chair, saying he wanted to show me how to use the mouse. It felt strange and unusual and I cried. LOL I didn't want to use it. Can you believe that? I hate things to change. I want everything to be the same as it used to be. haha Now I love the mouse. It is so wonderful to point and click and select something to copy and paste. I have over 100 recipes I have saved from the Internet. That mouse is a marvelous invention. Speaking of Internet, I went to your Appaloosa website, Ingrid. You have some beautiful horses there! And wolf! I really enjoyed my tour of your place. I love you to pieces and hope you are feeling well today. Please take care of yourself. I am so glad that I have found this group and all the wonderful people here. Prayers for everyone. ~Deb from KS Ingrid Lowe wrote: Lydia, Your fears that computer has a ghost in it and a mind of its own is normal. LOL I think we all have felt that way!!!!! And still do at times. And then if we mess computer up we have to ask for help to it. But you know what????? You would not be the first one to have to ask for help to fix computer. We all have had to at some point. You will get better and better at computer. You wait and see!!!! You are very smart lady and I know you will get very good at computer. You know you are pretty good at it already. A lot people won'e even try it because they are afraid of it. Love, Ingrid > > Dear Ingrid, > > I really believe there's something strange with this computer, because no matter what I do It only fowards what I want, when it feels like. (stz-stz )On top of this I can't mess around with the computer because it belongs to my son. So I must always check if what ever I do is reversable. Oh well...eventually I should learn much more. > > Love and kisses, > > Lydia --------------------------------- Yahoo! FareChase - Search multiple travel sites in one click.
