As in Touch Typing. Just as well I can touch type, aye!
And if you learnt how to type on one of those big old black typewriters, with the Nuns roaming the aisles wielding long rulers, you would be able to touch type too. But I still bash at the keys wearing the letters right off and now it looks like I need to replace the keyboard again. Sigh.
Yesterday was mental trying to get all the feed for the animals in before all my favourite little locally owned feed places closed for the Thanksgiving holiday. Both little towns in opposing directions. A lot of driving. And I TOTALLY forgot to get the human food. And visitors from home coming tomorrow. Ah well – I have a freezer full. I will make bread and butter today.
However, I achieved some of the things on my list. And have a list ready for today. There is much to get through with this cold at my back. It rained then sleeted then snowed yesterday as though some fat fingered god was clicking the dial through the little winter weather icons checking that all was in working order. We even got back to sun by the end of the day.
All is in working order I would say.
I have nothing to report really, no pictures either. Just popping in for a coffee.
Have a lovely day.

ps. No newsletter this month. Something had to give. But the Zazzle account is still alive and doing business. The aprons are the top sellers this month. Which is a surprise because I thought it would be the calendar. I need to order mine – pronto. (Plus I need to get busy and make the smaller ones.) Thank you for your orders! Let me know what you think.

you ought to get that key board bronzed…it’s a masterpiece! Have a lovely day tomorrow- big hugs to you!
Learnt on a big, black machine myself and still have a separate keyboard on a pull-out shelf about three inches below my desktop machine . . . oh so comfortable for paid-work up to ten hour a day ++ 🙂 ! Oh, no nuns and, after all these decades, still no touch typing . . . but am awfully fast at ‘playing the piano’ looking at the keys
Hi Celi. No Thanksgiving dramas here but plans hotting up for Christmas, although my daughter and I are going to a hotel for a few days at Wairakei. And that typewriter. Yes, I too learned to touch type and I notice on my 2-year-old iMac that the keys for s and e are almost blocked out. Good job I know where they are. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
No pictures?!?
I’d say that keyboard speaks volumes; )
I’ve worn out several keyboards too, but luckily like you I learned to touch type so you get used to it don’t you. I’d forgotten about the rulers, but there’s something about the teachers that thought it was OK didn’t they?
Happy Thanksgiving I hope that it went well I’m sure that that no-one would starve there.
Now it makes sense why I thump away on my keyboard .. 😃 I also learnt on one of those old black typewriters ..
There ya go!
