I love data, but I'm not a data entry sort of person. Mostly because I get numbers easily mixed up. If I'm writing down a phone number 75 percent of the time I get it wrong, or is that 57 percent? That is why I tend to spell out numbers --seventy-five makes much more sense to me that 75. When I get a text that substitutes '2' for 'to' or '4' for 'for' it takes me longer to figure out. I'm a whiz at doing math in my head, but putting it on paper is trouble.
I've finally tapped into the genius of Excel spreadsheets. My head nearly explodes setting them up, but once you get the formulas right it magically does all of the math and sorting.
Now I just need to have twenty or thirty uninterrupted minutes to finish.

I swear you and my son are meant to be. He carries around his laptop and shows off his excel spreadsheets. I personally can't get that excited about them but it looks like he's not alone. LOL
I would love to learn how to do the excel spreadsheets. I have fiddled with it some and even took a quick class one time. I can see the way they work would be a wonderful tool.
I really laughed at your squirrel story, and I'm glad you caught that pain in the butt! Who knew they could cause so much damage! Even going into your purse!! Sounds like he was almost a pet!! LOL I do think changing your cats name was the right idea!!
I'm glad it all had a happy ending and I expect he's happily living at the cemetery!
Yes Nora, I often posetrans my numbers when I try to enter stuff.
Excel Excapes me...
