A TRIAL RUN...BUT NOT REALLY
So ...I’m back...It’s going to take a while to get used to a keyboard again and in fact,
I’m not using it now. For a reason unbeknown to me the keyboard on my iPad is up and the new one
is not responding. I have a feeling my computer literacy is about to take a monumental curve ...
up ...or down...It will be a test of my ability.
Can’t find the font that changes the size of the print. Can’t take the cursor back to make a
correction. Spacing has changed and I don’t know why. I turned a button to 3 but that’s on the
new keyboard. Why would that affect the spacing on the iPad touchpad. I don’t even know the words
to describe things. I need to look again to see if there is an instruction manual. There is a
leaflet telling me how not to start a fire with the batteries...in four different languages.
My grandson Aaron found the keyboard for me. He is in his mid-twenties, married and an expectant
father. He has never known life without computers. Before he started school, his mother with other
mothers had to raise funds to buy computers. And then have a principal tell them how the funds were
to be used.
Aaron doesn’t need language,he just
lets his fingers do the tapping for him. But Aaron’s not here. Hunting and pecking is not good
enough. I just thought I would let you know I am up though not quite running on my blog once again.
