Have you been left in the dark?

Every now and then I’ve been told that I’m a little in the dark when it comes to new technology. I’m glad we have DVD players because my old VCR would still be flashing 12:00. I could never figure that out. I may be in the dark for things like that, but I’m a lot…



Can you really multi-task?

How many things can you do at one time? We often hear about people who can do more than one thing at a time; multi-tasking. I’m always so busy that I sometimes wish I had more arms so I could do more tasks. Instead of that, I delegate some of the tasks that need to…
