AT ABT. 8 AM I STARTED TO RESEARCH SOME DEFINITIONS FOR MY NEXT POST. I WENT TO PRINT THEM OUT, BUT PRINTER WAS NOT WORKING. OH NO!
STARTED TO FIX. LOL, BECAUSE I'M SOOOO TECH SAVY.
MEANWHILE, I GOT A MESSAGE ABOUT SHARING MY NEW OFFICE TO ANY OF MY DEVICES. OH GOOD. I NEED WORD ON MY iPad.
NOT SURE HOW LONG THAT TOOK. IT WAS DOWNLOADING UNTIL IT JUST HUNG THERE. YOU KNOW HOW THAT GOES. YOU DON'T KNOW IF IT'S WAITING TO CATCH UP, OR HANGING YOU OUT TO DRY.
And, so, I tired to find the answer. Of course I couldn't. Then it seemed that it had downloaded some other way, but it didn't.
Then, I remember I was trying to download the driver for my printer.
| This is what I think of when I hear the word "driver". Well, not him. But he came up on the search, and I decided to share. |
It wouldn't let me sign in to my HP account. Had to get new password. Didn't realize I was in and well, you know. Forever. And ever.
I decided to go to HP on line. maybe that would work. Yeah. I found my model and downloaded the software.
So, it's 10:40 am. I was in one of those nightmare loops. They keep asking you to choose something which doesn't have the right answer on it.
Then they tell you to find out something about your ip on your browser. But wait. I need to print the instructions because if I take notes, I'll get it wrong. I got it wrong. Plus, I couldn't find it for 15 minutes.
In the midst of the this my poor husband wanted to talk to me before he went fishing. I was less than nice. He got mad. Can't blame him, but hey, I'm losing my mind with this. I can't do one this at a time, and I'm in a fucking loop and you expect me to be able to read AND talk?
So, finally. After making up and apologizing, I did what one does when all else fails. THE REBOOT.
Well, it asked if it were a new computer. I don't know. I don't have a driver and it doesn't work. So, I said yes. Then it asked me to open an account which I did until they told me I had to sign in. Another loop. It did actually recognize that we had more than one IP or router or household numbers or bathtubs and I do not know how. But I was able to print the original paper.
| There were actual words on mine. Amazing. |
Now I need to see if the scanner is working. That has been out for two week, but due to what I have just told you about, I've been putting it off.
Do any of you have these problems? Can't stay on one thing if another comes up? Can't do that, so you remember you were doing something else?
Then, curse, keep looking at the clock because you have to leave. I have to leave at the time it takes before my appointment. Like I have a 12 o'clock. So I call it 11:20. After leaving the house several times at 12, I realized I had to do something different.
This is me with ADHD on meds. Imagine me without them.
Thanks for Reading or scanning or opening or trashing. Whatever.
