need help with making a friend, beginer on a computer im told its the only way for isolated people to talk to someone, does any body know if there is a on line service to help people with problem solving on computers. like a help desk for people with learning difficulties. if some one actually replies it will be my first time, im isolated on a farm and go months without talking to a single person, yours in good faith. tony

@maddison @tyme @BPDSurvivor @NatureLover . thanks for tips and kind words, ill find some to help.. a couple of ladies at the library have offered a few times to help, ive just got to overcome the shyness thing. ill wake up one day , take some eggs and veg to swap, and hope they dont end up regretting the offer. did you get the kite about the "no-no" words ? . do you have a list you could email me, its a real trap for new comers. for naive people like me we would never expect an item of cutlery to torpedo the mail room.. any way , better go, my feet are ki ing me,.. opps ... nearly did it again. my feet are hurting. hope you see the funny side .in good faith .tonys moon base one, over and out

You Are welcome @tonys !
It's a pleasure. That sounds like a fantastic idea having the ladies at the library help you. I think it's much easier to explain in person. A lovely offer.
"cutlery to torpedo the mail room.."
this made me laugh!
Thanks.
Confirming that all kites have landed. Have a good night MoonBaseOne.

Hi @tonys ,
How are you? Sorry I haven’t been on much. I’m sorry to hear about your cow. I hope your other animals are ok. And I hope you are okay too!
Good work on sending all your letters through. I am receiving all of them. I love how you write and the way you explain things.

I hope you are okay @tonys .
Please reach out if you are not okay. Just because you live in a farm, it doesn’t mean you don’t deserve support.
It’s hard losing anything - especially if it’s an animal you’ve cared for.
You don’t seem like your perky self today. I hope you are okay.

@BPDSurvivor im ok mate but thanks for concern. it gets busy here and theres always the odd neighbour problem. but mostly people get mentally tired . i sleep for half an hour and then im recharged again... get anxious at times . overloaded, but who doesnt. too busy to get depressed. cant be perky 24/7. even comedians run out of new material... also have days where i cant look at computor. picking, feeding fixing tractor.. etc.. then theres the odd 'me day'. movies mtv or poke fire cat and rabbit...and enjoy the rain on the window.. hope you are in good spirits. a favourable wind in your sails. tonys moon base one.
