Oh dear, did I do something wrong?

Help! How do I find my way around? I'm 82, and not very technical - its all the new words and expressions that trip me up as well as the tiny little keyboard letters that my arthritic fingers are unable to hit accurately. I'm looking forward to making new internet friends and swopping stories and tips.

Hi Sandy, I'm a new old member. I was a member in the 'old days' of MSN but lost touch when the move to Facebook happened. Not being very tech savvy at 82, its taken me all this time to find you again. I thought I'd already introduced myself, but unlike you, I must have done something wrong as I can't find my post. Anyway, its nice to meet you, I think you'll find everyone friendly and welcoming as I did back in 'the day', and hopefully we'll meet up again on the boards.

This happened to us 30 years ago, although we were invited to the wedding we were excluded from then onwards and excluded from our three Gkids lives and now from GGkids lives. A month ago my daughter in law demanded a divorce after all this time and is demanding (and likely to get) half of the family business as our son and his dad (my husband) are in partnership, and we foolishly hadn't made any provision for such a split. Half our lifetime's work given to this unfriendly female who has never allowed us to share the delight of a family life in our old age. Swallow your hurt for the time being and protect your own assets (no-one need know) and then weep for your lost son. Bless you, I know how bitter these tears will be. XX
