THE EASE OF COMPUTERS

Well, I finally decided I should probably get over my fear of computers so I decided to enroll in a class for beginners! I think it's just ridiculous that before this class I was scared to even turn the computer on.    It seems hilarious to me now. What I like about it is that even though it's a beginning class the teacher has been talking about some more advanced topics like how to do an online backup of our information. This came as a pleasant surprise because my dad has been using his computer to store the research he's been doing about our family. He has all these old vintage pictures on there too that some relatives scanned and sent him via e-mail. He told me he wanted to have an online backup just in case but he didn't know how to do it.  Now I'll actually be able to teach him something. He seems to know almost everything about computers but I know for sure he hasn't learned this yet.  It's amazing the amount of material we've covered.  We have about six more weeks left in the class and it seems everyone is progressing pretty well! I'm having more fun with it than I thought I would.
