Christmas Cards to the Rescue

Last week I tried to get into One Note on my computer. I had a lot of different bits of information from books, posts, and addresses and phone numbers. Microsoft wouldn't allow me access and I lost everything on One Note including all the addresses I had for those of you I have sent post cards to and Christmas Cards in the past. However, not every address was lost. Thanks to Christmas cards. I don't throw anything away, so if there are more envelopes around, I will find them. I have envelopes for: Belle Starr Lany Sharon @crazyhorseladycx @valmnz Bonnie Dina Judy @sugartoes Some of those are your user names and some are only your first names. There are more I don't have. If you sent me a post card and your name is not listed, please PM me your address so I have it. I'm writing it down now in a book so I don't lose it in the future. Computers can be worse than women at times - totally unmanageable. I praise God I still had the envelopes from the Christmas Cards you sent me. I still have all your Christmas Cards - they are all precious to me, as you are all precious to me. If you have never sent me a post card and would like one from me, please PM me your address and I will send one in the mail to you. @Inlemay thank you very much for the post card I received a couple days ago. I love it. Thanks for reading.

@sueznewz2 I never know when an update is going to get rid of everything or change the way I got into it in the past. I still have all your post cards and thank you for them.

@sugartoes It is a good idea. However, index cards are loose and would probably get lost.

@just4him has anyone heard from this gal lately I was trying to think what the username was and just spotted her on an old post (like this one). I realized it was a long time since I read anything of hers

Those cards look so nice. I always note the names/addresses/other details in a notebook. Because sometimes when changing mobiles it becomes a tedious tasks to copy all the details. And as for computers you just can't trust them

Aw man, I'm sorry! I have my contacts written on paper, tho I have been guilty of misplacing the notebook at times. Maybe we'll exchange cards this upcoming Christmas. :)

I am very much a computer person and have been for years but my addresses I still keep in a physical address book, always good as a backup.

@Lupita234 I have all my passwords written down. There are just too many to keep track of any other way.

I love your Christmas card display. It would be awesome to receive a Christmas card from you and send you one, too. If I go to the beach, I could send you a postcard. That would be lovely. I will send you my address and you can send me yours. Thank you so much.

I got your address, thank you. However, you aren't taking messages so I couldn't give you mine. I'll get a postcard in the mail tomorrow and put my address on it.

@just4him I did not know that I was not taking messages. I looked at settings...and sure enough, it was set for not accepting them. I fixed it! Thank you for telling me.

How nice that you kept the envelopes. I always keep a hard copy of things as well as my online stuff.

I still write the addresses in a real agenda, you never know what can happen to a computer, nothing is sure. I hope you can recover all your addresses.

I wasn't thrilled that One Note went poof on me. I lost a lot I had on there. Some was unimportant, but addresses and phone numbers are important. Not everybody is on FB with me.

@JudyEv I do agree with you. You gotta know it was a man who invented it so that only men can fix it. Even stores have that male concept about them in how they are laid out. No woman would lay out a store the way I've seen them laid out.

Yeah, fancy that As much as I love computers, I hate them as well. So fickle. Almost makes me think of My Fair Lady and Henry Higgins - Why can't a woman be more like a man. Could you please re-send me your address?

@just4him I have a bit different approach. When something gives me a really hard time, I say it must be 'male' because Vince can always get it to work and it makes me really mad when I can't. .
