Well. That’s it. I’m dead.

It took me five years to teach my mother the very basics of windows 7 after she’d adapted to windows 98.

This is going to confuse the crap out out of her.

She still can’t run a cellphone. She *just* figured out call waiting on the house phone a couple months ago and she still panics when she gets a call interrupt.

“Oh dear! I have a call! The thingy says that it’s from a number in Arizona that I don’t know!”

“So take the call mom.”

“Okay. But don’t hang up. If I loose you, I’ll call you back when I can.”

“That’s fine.”

“Hello? HELLO?! Did I loose you?”

“I’m here mom.”

“Oh. Okay. I don’t know who it was. They hung up.”

So true! Heck, I can’t figure out how to answer a another call while talking on my cell phone. I have to put on my glasses so I can see what button to push and by the time I find them, they have hung up!
