My Sons' Asus laptop and angling time spent in positive ways

I work at a computer and I am attached to the phone at my desk. I take calls and make hotel, golf and steakhouse reservations. I send out a property wide buzz sheets at my casino and on a good day, I don't get correction e-mails sent to me. I am itching to get back up on my feet on the daily and to reach out to an even broader audience of people. Thereby creating the space to be more helpful to myself and others in this life. But you know the simplest thing like navigating this laptop is a mystery to me. Haven't had access to the internet much for some years now, with the exception of my work computer and my phone. Just learning to navigate this little laptop is an interesting challenge for now. I have fallen way behind from the get go in classes, but I have such high hopes. I will not give up. I just need to get my momentum going...Learned today how to download a book Dean gifted us to a memory stick. Worked on that since yesterday, on and off. Many interesting things to be learning...
