Yes, been there with everything you wrote about typing, correcting four or five carbons, Selectric, etc. Back in the day, as they say, it was a skill to know shorthand - yes, still know my Pitman shorthand well, and typing for accuracy with speed too. And penmanship? It's gone and they don't even teach cursive in school anymore, so sad. Now getting back to trying things differently. Yes, I'm willing to try and I've kept up on all the skills I've had to with the computers, programs on the computer at work, etc. Also, I want to be flexible and keep up with technology so I'm not one of those older seniors that are left behind. Good to try new things - you might like it better and if you don't, you know you at least tried.
