Life was so simple when I was young. It was a basic, straightforward mechanical existence. Keys turned to open a car door, calls were made with a thunkety-thunk-thunk of a finger stuck in thick plastic disc, the caller's wanderings limited by the length of the cord stuck into the wall.
I only say this because I think growing up in the wires and gears era is why I’m so challenged when it comes to figuring out electronics, especially how to create a website. Tyler Moore and his YouTube tutorial on WordPress (http://bit.ly/2TylerWP) gave me the information I needed to put it together, but I was still perplexed.
I can sling words into a novel, wrangle a crochet hook around yarn to create a hat or scarf, and stitch together a coat from scraps of fabric, but that’s working with media I’m familiar with. Words, wool, and winter wear haven’t changed much over the years. Well, maybe words have, but I can Google those and figure out what a dongle is with an internet connection.
