Some very energetic eighty year olds love/live on their computers here, slightest problem they phone, either my son or myself to assist them. (Sons little business is hardware/software related, I am the back-up 😄, apprenticeship all over again....)

Going into blogging was a great challenge, rewarding in many ways opening one up to more challenges and changes, technology has not been quiet in some time, has it?

!LUV for great Mother, wish her happy Woman's day today and not to forget Wife and Daughter!
!BEER I know!
!WINEX with supper.... A !PIZZA to chomp on, personally I would enjoy cheese fondue!

When I think back to the eighties and the first computers we have had back then at school I can definitely agree - technology hasn't been quiet in the past decades.

My wife has got a chocolate from me and I have been phoning with my daughter for quite a long time today. She is in quarantine - second time Covid 😑 she hates it because she wants to go to school.

But my mother still doesn't believe me that she can type an URL into the address field of the browser to get there faster instead of typing it into Google and click on the search result 🤣 !LOLZ

!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner, although a cheese fondue sounds delicious too

Computers were not in schools here in 1990's, private tuition excessively expensive so when offer came up at place of work, paying off over a year I took the offer so the family could all learn.

We don't really celebrate as such, no one remembered in my home..., well totally outnumbered by men what did I expect 😂

As long as Mom finds a way it doesn't matter, after all she gets there doesn't she?

We have had a few to learn accounting and we also have learned programming simple math games and such, if I remember right.

If I had not read it on Twitter I wouldn't have known it and the chocolate for my wife was just one I had in my desk which I would have given her anyway 😂 !LOLZ

Yep, you're right, I just hate it when people click too many times to get to the same result 😁

First 'computer machines' I came across were adding machines and teller tills, then onto bookkeeping machines long before home computers.

Short cuts do not stick with some, they always take the long route, perhaps they know something we don't...

Another rainy day, hope you got some sunshine to warm the bones!

We have also had these bookkeeping machines and I wouldn't know anymore how to handle them 😉

Yep, some right click and click on "copy" and some click Ctrl+c to copy - people who have much time take the long way, I believe 😁

I'm on nightshift again, but the sun has been shining nicely today 🌞

Night shift sometimes a blessing you have time to see the sun for a short while.

Old machines sure knew how to give you strong wrists and fingers with heavy duty button pushing or cranking of some sort!

Short cuts to get the job done, whichever you fancy you use, I still prefer a gaming keyboard being a touch typist, yet some sit one handed with a phone quite relaxed....

24 hours shift plus 8 hours in the office today - I am quite tired today and nowhere to sit except at my desk 😴

Oh yes, it was real work back in the days 😅

I prefer keyboards too and it takes ages to type on the phone like at the moment 😂

Hope you're having a great day Joan 😊🌞

Thanks a lot for your kind words, Joan 😊

Spring is coming in big steps and it's getting warmer day by day, and I hope the heat you're experiencing will ease and you will soon enjoy a fabulous Autumn 🌞

Hope you're having a nice Friday 🙂

Good morning Joan,

yep, we didn't have much snow down here in the valley this Winter, but as every year it will certainly snow once more before the Spring arrives.

Wishing you and family also a Happy Friday and a wonderful weekend 😊
