The Old Folks Home

[microchick]

I checked out BYH. Thanks for suggesting that I do that. I don't seem to be having problems viewing that format even with Hughnet internet. I think It's probably because I'm running adblock along with a pop up blocker.

The big problem is maybe 72 hours without BYC? Other than to read? .....guess I'll be getting a lot of things caught up around the old homestead, LOL.

I've noticed that several long time members here have made the jump, and some have started threads over there to keep tabs on everybody in the interim.

the easy garden is the one I am also subscribed to
allot like this but to send pm message you have a "conversation"
found that a bit difficult to maneuver

Lol. So many people going bonkers on the other threads.
Wonder if it's a ploy to get more people on BYH?
And we say kids can't be without the internet. This is just one site for a few days

I don't know have not joined the herds group am on the garden site
as I believe that with only 3/4 of an acre and 30 or so birds does not constitute a herd

OY VAY !! OY GAVALT !!! This could be the end of me (stop applauding guys), I never figured out the last change. This sounds worse. I am a person of few computer skills, old, very forgetful and don't even know how to use the perks I already have (Platnium plus I can't stand NOT posting for " how many days,"

It's really not fair to the ' hmm,' older members who may not be as sharp and fast to learn as the many youngsters (not getting SS benefits etc.) and scads of IT folks already here.

Stores have small order lines , something like that should be available to non-tech folks. You enter the non-tech forum and some genius like Ron - translates the jabber you have written into something coherent & then translates the replies into simple English so we can understand them.

Will we still be able to navigate via search box or is that verboten? The Sister threads have nothing I am interested in

@drumstick diva Ole you and I are the in the same boat with a whole in it

I grew up with a mouse in one hand hammer in the other

learned dos as my second language
these days can't even remember which end is up

@drumstick diva andf @penny1960 I am the same way. I hate change but I can muddle my way though and when it comes to computers like the old saying goes, if you can't dazzle them with brains, dazzle them with bull. Most of my peers think I'm pretty savvy with them but in all honesty, my husband is the one who can make a computer sing and tap dance for him. I have a problem, I push the mouse towards him and say "Fix Please".He does and I take over control of the mouse.

I imagine I'll do all right with the new format. If not, hey, back to baffling.
