Computer Wiz

I’m finally starting to feel like my computer skills are improving! I’m certainly no Bill Gates, and Katie still knows more than I do, but I’m learning and I’m feeling proud. I’ve been figuring out how to save things in different ways and in different places and how to retrieve those things. After a couple of failed attempts and a scolding from my computer, I even learned how to “safely” remove the flash drive. Yesterday I had to do a layout for the front page of a newspaper, on a Mac. It took me two hours but I finished it. Well, I helped with it. One of the school newspaper designers had to step in and help before I burst into tears, but still, I saved her work and sent the assignment in. I get some of the credit. Now hopefully I’ll be able to post this blog without cussing or my ego will be crushed.

...Twenty minutes later... I finally got this stupid thing posted. Now I'm totally frustrated. That's what I get for being proud. Who knew you had to use control "V" to paste?! That makes so much sense, doesn't it? Live and learn and try not to lose your mind.

  1. Control V? Why don't you just click the post or publish button? I need to give you a lesson on blogging while I'm up there and post all of your pictures too.
