Finally Resolved

Filed under: computers, learning — Grandma C. @ 1:10 am

My Norton antivirus issue has finally been resolved and I am using my main computer again. A trojan virus had wrecked my windows files so much that I had to reformat the computer, but now it’s good. Norton’s final help was to realize that my account hadn’t been activated since I bought it online last summer, although I was using it until December - go figure. When I reinstalled it everything worked well and I am a happy computerer again.

I’ve been working on my new motivatedtolearn site and transferred a number of my articles over, as well as my newsletter. I had a couple of emails from readers about the change, which was nice, since sometimes I feel like I’m writing to outer space.

My newest gadget and birthday present is a little label printer and it’s so cute. I wasn’t sure if I would use it that much, but tonight it came in very handy. I’m having a baby shower for my daughter and rather than wreck my wrist writing (say that quickly), I printed off the address on labels and pasted them on the invitations. They look nice and saved a lot of time and effort. Tomorrow I’ll do the envelope labels and I’ll be all set. I didn’t like doing labels with my regular printer because it was so fiddly getting the data nicely centred. But this little printer does them perfectly every time and I can add little pictures, print all different sizes, and like I said before, it’s cute.
