I am a self-taught computer user, blogger, researcher, seeker and html-coder. Although I can maneuver around my laptop with some finesse, this can be problematic at times because I think I am capable of more than I am and ultimately blame the computer rather than my limited abilities.

My first week of college classes began with a C-tech course that I am hoping will alleviate this limited abilities problem that more often than not results in using foul language. I like to think of myself as a level-headed and patient person, but if my computer could speak, well, he (notice he isn't a she, because if my computer were a she then we would be besties and "she" wouldn't cause me so many problems) anyway, HE would probably tell you that I am in fact going to benefit greatly from this class as I have several issues with navigating my laptop that include but are not limited to resting my writs on the mouse pad, deleting windows, and loosing documents.

In creating this blog, I have already learned that I only need to simply click "post" and not "create new blog" - wow I wonder how many random blogs I have out there - in order to write my thoughts.

I think a digital workspace is an excellent way of recording and filing important information. I have recently come across a device (television commercial) that actually scans all of your important documents and files them into your computer where they are easily retrievable by a single word or name. I would love to implement this into my home life as I recently looked in my THREE favorite "filling spots" for a receipt that could have been at my fingertips.

I enjoy Facebook and staying connected to my relatives and friends. Especially those living on the East Coast. However, I do not care to add Internet to my phone and hope this remains a long term goal as I don't want to become a twenty-second updater that takes pics of my dinner and cat feces just to have something to say. Hopefully, this blog will take care of that.

I set up a Pinterest account and have ten or so items on there. I like this AP, as it gives you that "filing" and "organizing" option of your thoughts, likes, future things to do and see, places to go and a place to dream. My Mom, on the other hand, has over 20,000 pins. I know those numbers are staggering in comparison, but Mom is retired and I'm... well... back in school... fighting my way through Algebra and wondering why I have to wonder about bottled water....at forty....

...until next week....
