Click-Click-Clack … a TYPEWRITER
You can see the tots are completely amazed by the workings of a typewriter. Jimmy was cleaning out the stake clerk’s office and was taking a bunch of stuff to D.I. I asked him to hold this out so we could show the kids. Totally awesome how much the kid’s loved it. (you can see that Jimmy was not quite as WOW-ed by the typewriter).
I remember having a manual typewriter that was red when I was little. I’m sure this didn’t help it last any longer, but I used to try and get all the keys stuck together by the ribbon. Fun times!
I remember way back in the day our computer broke down and I had an assignment due at school so my mom pulled out the old typewriter and I had to type my paper on it. It took FOREVER because I was trying so hard to be careful not to make a mistake. You never realize how important that backspace button is until you don’t have it haha!
