Howdy do!! Glad you're here!

As for the computer, I am 'challenged' also but the only way to learn is to jump in and do it. There are so many ways to learn and places to learn from.

Don't give up, keep trying!!

For some 'venting'-type of entertainment, please read my blog, http://lostadventuresintrucking.blogspot.com . Now with pictures!!

Welcome aboard Donna. Definitely jump right in. Come back often, the repetition will help you get familiar with the computer and the sight. Have fun and we're here to help each other. Ask away. :)

Welcome donna,

So glad to have a new gal to learn from! You think you are going to be picking our brains, but we get to pick your brain, too. So, get ready to share your gifts and knowledge, too! It is so nice to have you. . .

Hi to everyone..I just wrote a message and lost the whole thing!!! so i'll try again. I do think this will be fun...if I can accomplish it. It is a beautiful day here in Central Or. although very cold, about 12 degs. last night and 25 today. Where I live I have a wonderful view of the cascade mountains now covered w/ snow. They are so majestic..it reminds me of the scripture in Ps.121:1,2...I shall raise my eyes to the mountains. From where will my help come? My help is in Jehovah, The Maker of heaven and earth. They make me feel so close to our Creator, for which I'm so thankful. And my thanks to Sherrye for helping me today with this message!!!

Welcome. I havent been on near as long as some others but when I started I lost messages also. I think I was hitting the boxes above the blue line first instead of the submit reply button. Who knows. One thing I have learned- Just keep trying till it works! I still dont know how to put pics on but I enjoy the visiting tremendously.

Donna- sometimes, and this doesn't always work, but if you accidentally delete something try pushing the control key and the Z key together as this is the "shortcut" for the "undo" command. Sometimes you might have accidentally hightlighted and then pushed a button which would delete most of your text. I have to be really careful also not to push the arrow keys when I am in an email message as sometimes that can cause the program to think I am pushing the "back" key in my internet explorer screen.
