Thanks for referring to boomers as “mid-life.” I’m a Gen-Xer, and that’s the first time someone has made me feel young in a long time.
Congrats on the laptop purchase. I’ve somehow accumulated four of them, which makes writing easier. I just swivel my head until I see a keypad, then I sit in front of it. I can’t believe people ever had typewriters.
Thanks for the LOL Eric!!! I call it “midlife” because none of us know how much time we have left…Yes, those typewriter days must have been DAUNTING. Imagine sitting down to write something, considering ALL of the hoops you would need to jump through before anyone else would ever see your work!
I’m not sure I would have had the confidence and endurance to write back then for publication!
BTW, nice blog!
Congratulations! And what a great idea to only put Word on your laptop — it’s gotta keep you from wasting huge amounts of time playing on the web, and it should keep you focused on what you’re supposed to do.
I bought a laptop about a year ago. Honestly, haven’t used it much. But now, you’ve given me an idea . . .

I just realized today I’ve used my laptop everyday since I got it! You know me, I cannot shut up!
