Really?

I spent the entire day re-entering data that I lost in one program on my computer. It would be so much nicer if I were a bit more computer savvy, but,alas, I am not anymore! I used to be pretty good at it, but it went off and left me after I retired and didn't need to know as much any more. Half the time was spent trying to re-name a column in a data file. I know it can be done because I have old print outs where it is done!!! I gave up. I cannot do it! Anyway, I got all the data re-entered for my high school reunion database and my personal list of data that I use for my Christmas cards. The program is an obscure one that no one else has ever heard of. At some point in the future, I will enter all the data in Excel. I found a folder where I had started doing it and even printed out how to print the labels. I even saved what I did to a disk! Hell, I used to know how to do stuff! I have the proof!
