OT: Oldfashioned

17 years ago

I'm old, and oldfashioned.

Whenever I see a post that applies to me, I print it and file it indexed in a 3" folder, for future reference. I figure that way I don't have to search thru the forum to find my answers later on. Actually, it's fun to do this. And time is one thing I have lots of. LOL.

Is there a better way that I don't know of, and would you please let me know?

By the way, my single Candida now has 26 blossoms to get ready to bloom. I am just totally excited, after all the work and troubles I went thru, and thank you: with your help, advice (which I followed) and suggestions. You're the greatest!!!!

As for pictures, the only camera I have is on my cellphone. I know how to email these picture to my own email address, but then knowlege "How to" left me. Don't know how to forward it to this forum.

Hugs to all!!

    No, it's less work to look thru my indexed folder than to find something on the forum. First off, by the time I need it, (maybe in one year?)I wouldn't know where to look to make it pop up. It might have disappeared by then, too.- try me!! I might just send my pics from the cell phone to Lucy's email when the time comes. I know how to do that!!
    Bye now, luv ya.
    PS: and I know that Lucy wouldn't get mad at me!!!

    You can cut and paste the info you want to keep, including photos, into a word document and file under labeled tabs on your computer. You could even put all related items in one document, then the process would very much like looking through a real folder. You only have to print when you really need something printed. Just make sure you have the date and where you got the info for future reference and do backups just in case.

    Haase come to think of it. I like the old fashion way. WHY? well lets just say when my 2 computers totally died and took all saved, cut and pasted into documents etc with them...at least with your index cards you GOT IT!! Never do make back ups on discs :-(

    Yeah! Hoooray! Thanks for all the advice. Need to get smarter on the computer, though.
    One never stops learning, how exciting!
    P.S. -- LOL, but I still printed all this out. Like I said: Oldfashioned me!
