~~~Nancy's Story
Hello! In 2005 we were given our first desktop computer in our home! Wow!
For some wild unknown reason I took to that computer like a duck to water! A happy duck! Me - I would have been 49 years old at that time! In 2004 I had just finished up with a Cosmetology school and had just passed the State Cosmetology exam.
At the time I was working part time in as a Cosmetologist
In 1975 right after high school I'd taken two different computer programming classes, Cobol and Basic. I hadn't gone far in them and did not understand the languages at all!
In 1986 or so while working as a secretary (using an electronic typewriter) my boss bought an Apple computer for me. Wow!
As I type these words on the page at this moment I can recall how very confusing it was for me. I had worked on a DOS computer called a VAX machine and I'd gotten pretty good at it. Now, here was this personal computer. Something new to learn!
After I left that job in 1989 I actually never touched a computer again until we were given our 'new - second-hand' computer in 2005. So, where did I get the ability to just figure out this computer thing? I run this web magazine - Your Health And Tech Friend!
God works in mysterious ways... I was made to use a computer! There is nothing that I have enjoyed more than working the 'ins' and 'outs' of a computer. I understand both the hardware and the software.
On these pages - my 'Computer and Technology' pages, I hope to bring to you the most fascinating and useful information on computers and technology! God's blessings to each of you that you find your niche, as I have!
Most sincerely, ~~~Nancy Gurish
