So there I was. I had just finished a long and, I thought, good blog about the dangers of Senior Moments. Now all I needed to do was to spell-check as my typing is atrocious and my spelling not much better.
And I clicked what I thought was the right button and....nothing.
This, I knew, was not right. Surely my blog was full of my usual typos and bad spellings, so I clicked again and again and even tried another button and
poof
it all farted and flew out the window.
No matter what I did, no matter how many times I said that I was sorry and didn't mean to yell at it, the computer refused to give me back the blog, which for all I know is now floating around somewhere in cyberspace.
I was defeated, and the only way I could see my way out of this mess, was to cut my losses, which I did.
I turned off the darned computer. This was my moment of power, my Senior Moment when the finger on the "off" button will outdo even the smartest computer.
So there, I had my Senior Moment.

and you think that you're the only one?
ok Alan I have a little tip for the next time all your great writing disappears:
hold down the control (Ctrl) button and press z
everything should pop right back onto the screen, it is kind of an "oops I didn't mean to do that" button lots of love Katy
