false rewarding

So everything is broke. Coffeemachine, sewingmachine and car. But I already had a priority for other new machines. My laptop is really, really old and the system got stuck multiple times a day. Something that is really frustrating me for a long time but also something I can't have when the shop is open. So first a new laptop. But my cellphone was even older and in the future I need to be able to check my mail and the shop everywhere, so now I have a smartphone and a wifi Ipad.

A new laptop, a smartphone and a Ipad. I feel like the Queen with all this new, hightech machines. Although.. I'm happy that I have systems that are working. A laptop that goes fast and is able to multitask. A phone that can do more then just make a call. But I'm totally not pleased with the fact that I'm such a computer idiot!! I have to copy my mail to the new laptop.. After a week, I finally did it but when I start the old laptop.. all mail on the new laptop is gone! Get my mail on the Ipad? Not working. Make a digital agenda? Figured it out but to get it on three systems??? Grrrr... I spend days now figuring it all out and it feels like the clock is running and I'm still at the start.

To motivate myself, and keep on figuring it all out, I 'reward' myself if I make a step. For example, if I manage to export my mail to the new laptop, I allow myself to crochet one ball. So you think.. Mmmhh, lots of balls, that is going well. No, you're wrong. My mail exports back to the old laptop by itself!! Agenda on the Ipad? Worked but all appointments are in there, three times. So the jar of balls should be empty.. Poor, nerdy me!
