Technology - My Way

Like quite a few people I know, I have a love/hate relationship with tech.  I'm an old fashioned girl at heart, and recently bought the metronome below (online of course, I just couldn't find the model I wanted in the shops...) after a metronome app on my phone got on my nerves.  I freak out a bit (sometimes a lot) when the slightest tech thing goes wrong, and at the back of my mind I always have some tech issue that needs to be resolved.

What has amazed me over the past year is my resilience and my capacity to learn and change.  See this website - a good friend set it up for me and I've learnt to use it and now I'm able to manage and edit most elements of it.  That's very liberating.  I recently added my logo which I love and am really proud of as it represents me, and I've made some format changes myself and simplified things.  I decided to call my audio and video page See Hear, and I thought it sounded pretentious, what will people think, but it actually says a lot about me.  I've always loved playing on words, if people don't get that, so what?  The thought of writing a blog was completely alien (who gives a ****) but I am making it work for me, and I love journalling, and if this contributes to the health of my harping business, so much the better.
