Decluttering my MAC

animal-animal-animal.blogspot.com

I have spent the morning trying to go through all the ‘stuff’ on my MAC computer in preparation for trying to change over to the new PC my husband is building for me. To be honest, I’m in a bit of a panic about this, afraid I’ll lose things, afraid I won’t be able to remember – or it’ll take a LONG time for me to relearn – how to use Microsoft. I’m certainly no expert on the MAC, but I was determined to get ‘functional’ before our son left to go back to Thailand over two years ago.

I have a place on the MAC called “Notes” that I’m not at ALL sure can be transferred from the MAC to the PC. It’s become kind of a catch all for things I want to keep track of – recipes, how-to’s, URLs, quotes, greenhouse articles, etc. I had a gazillion things on it in no particular order. I made a run through this morning, printing things I wanted to keep and deleting the rest. I’ll need to make a couple more passes before I’m ready to give it up when I change computers, but I made a good start today.

I’ll just try to do a bit each day and hope for the best.

I LOVE computers – except when they’re not being cooperative or when they go on strike. I basically consider them ‘magic.’  It’s a good thing my husband is a computer analyst. I LOVE the Internet – a great place to learn a ton of things. I HATE trying to make sense of what files I have, where they are, how to move them. I hope we don’t lose a lot of valuable ‘stuff’…
