[Blindtlk] Several Questions

[Ericka Short]

I hate to say this but Facebook works better on an iPhone than any Windows program. I don't use my computer for much now that I have had this phone since December. I use notes, which is a very simplistic WordPad type deal on the phone. You can download for free word 2013. Sounds like you & i has similar dinosaur computers. Mine is a 2011 HP and I would like to throw it out the window 98% of the time.
