For many years I wrote letters and stories and they were disappeared. I don't know where they went, I was simply writing as I used to in a typewriter. Now I have learned how to write again on a computer and I am no longer an idiot.

What is an idiot on computers? Whether you are a stroke/aphasiac, or a caregiver, or a "normal" person the best answer is about to paste messages, I get angry when I am writing to post a message and it disappears, even trying to undo on the Edit.

Best thing I have learned recently is that to write the message on Word on one of my drives and put it on a folder, which I call "Letters", and save it with a file name. Then, when I want to post the letter or an entry in my journal, I paste it in the new posting. It's like an old writer who changed the manuscript on an old typewriter who throw out the pages and rewrite.

Nice thing about computers is that you can change the messages. I am much happy about that. I can write stupid thing and can rewrite it on a computer. Better than loosing what I was writing and forgot what I was writing on my computer.
