Things 5, 6 & 7

I enjoyed flicker once I got the hang of it. I am technologically challenged. If Maryjane hadn't helped a little I would still be trying to figure out the difference between upload and download. I really don't understand it but I did get it to work. I explored the site pal thing a little. It's interesting that from home I could create my own talking person and put it on my blog or a web site. It's interesting but not enough to get me to spend my limited free time trying to make it work.
Technology does make a lot of thing easier, but it is sometimes a stress for some of us. Why is it that I can only get one microwave to work on defrost setting in our lunch room. Shouldn't they all work about the same. It seems like a little thing but I know older adults who have had to quit using a microwave because the new one they bought is to complicated to learn. I want a new sewing machine but, they just don't straight stitch and zigzag anymore. They have specialized the sewing machine. I need to decide, do I want one for quilting or embroidery or the ability to download (or is it upload) things from the web to put on my creation. I'm so confused I really don't want to go to classes to learn how to use a new machine. Can't I just sit down and sew?
Well I'm sure you all have moments when you wonder if it's all good. One thing I know for sure we can't turn back so like it or not this learning experience is good for us.
