Try to help or not!!!!!

We have just spent a whole bank holiday weekend tidying up the house as it has been a mess for a long time, this I must say was because we have been renovating the back room and decorating. Well as you can imagine with Alex and me every single room was a mess not just the back room. Anyway from all that we also did the office room which we have ignored for many many month and the paperwork, well let's just say I don't do that much in my job in a year and my job is at least 50% paperwork. In the end we had a pile of stuff to sort out and fill in and send off and amend, we decided to do this tonight. We got through it surprisingly quickly and the last thing to do was set Alex up on his Internet banking site, now Alex will tell you himself he is not great with technology which may surprise you all as he is constantly texting, emailing, blogging & facebooking but then I set him up on all of them. For some random reason he wanted to do this all by himself. Well ok I thought I will just sit in the room and help him if he needs it but oh no, I can not be in the room with him I put him off. I pop in every now and again just incase but he turn the laptop away from me like he is on a porn site or something (he wasn't by the way). He has this thing special key code that looks like a calculator and he is trying to set this up, first he has a problem with starting it up but won't have help. Then he puts in a code that he will use each time to get this special code which is different each time, sounds complicated I know but is good idea really. Well Alex is not the best for remembering anything like that so I suggest he write it down but no he doesn't want to do that either. Well give him his dues he did do it all by himself, so I suggested he log off and try to log on again to see if it worked alright. This he did try and what do you know he had forgotten his code already but five minutes and several try's later he got it, so you might say well he done it leave him along but I can 97.5% guarantee that with in a month he will need my help to get on to this site again. So anyway the point of this blog is when people offer to help you, make things easier or similar why not just accept it and not be precious about it. Just a thought. Love from Tony
