And what's more

I'm trying to get to grips with Microsoft 365, and the latest update of my computer has left the screen looking different but I can't work out how.

Also I'm struggling to comment on peoples' blogs. The internet doesn't like me today.

I think I'll go and start a new jigsaw. Well, an old one but I did it so long it won't count. I suppose there's no reason why you can't do jigsaws more than once. It's not like a book or film where you know the ending. Then again you do know the ending but it's the getting there that's the pleasure.

I enjoyed The Fellowship of Master Puzzlers. It was different and good fun. I put my name on the waiting list at the library for the new Richard Osman. I'm number 114 on the list.

And I need to train myself to type t and h in the right order as the number of times I have to go back and change them is crazy. You see,then, when I was thinking about it, I typed them properly each time.

I cant' type 'the' properly, either, unless I concentrate. There are others, too . . .

Sounds like it's definitely time to walk away and work on that puzzle instead.

There are words I never get right the first time. The is one. I type it too fast and always miss it.

If one thing isn't going well, then do something else. It's good for your mental health and it's advice I keep trying to give myself because I'll make myself crazy trying to get something to work. I see hte all the time. It's not one of my usual typos, but when I was a newspaper reporter, any time I typed the name Chris I wrote Christ instead.

Love,
Janie

We used to have ONE letter in English for "th"; it was Y. We still see signs like Ye Olde Pub.

Oh yes. I spend more time correcting than I do typing.

It was. My mindfulness exercise

Yep. I thought being aware would make me stop doing it but 'the' is such a well-used word that it doesn't register I think.

Liz Hinds said...

Do you listen to your own advice though?

Liz Hinds said...

Now that is so sensible!

I am an awful typist.
