I've become a whiz at file transfer from having to film the pups next door, take the video files from the camera (by way of memory card), but them on my computer and burn them to disc. I can do it in my sleep. And probably have.
Just kidding - I would try to talk you through it, but I am not the most computer savvy person here - sorry!
How to use memory stick? (please)

That is, when you can get any sleep!
Lepplady, I have really thought about you and your situation lately. I'm moving to be closer to work, and I keep asking the landlords (I'm going to rent before buying), Are there any dogs around here? Do they bark? I can't imagine having to deal with what you've got going on.
Just to add a little humor, this is one of my favourite Brian Regan bits:
danie, I don't think they have to tell you. I know before I built the house we were not allowed to know about neighbors and children building in the area

Let's start a petition for Brian to design a line of Stephen King USB flash drives which would be offered for sale on CafePress. They'd make great stocking stuffers.
(I get the first flat signed limited edition one.)

El Macombo 1976 - advertised as "April Wine" - I remember my boyfriend wanted to go, but I said "I am not a big fan of April Wine"

Depends on what kind of memory stick you're talking about. There are flat memory cards that go into a slot,
View attachment 10859
or flash drives that you stick into a usb port.
Either way, it's super easy.
Once you insert the card/stick, go to your "computer" - you can usually find this by clicking on your Windows, or Start button. A menu pops up, and "computer" should be there.
Click on that, and it'll show you every drive on your computer, including the new memory device you just inserted.
Double click on your computer (c drive) and go find where your pictures are.
Once you've found them, select all of them. You can do that by clicking on the first picture (once). Then scroll down to the last picture. Hold your shift button down and click on the last one (once), and all of your photos should be selected.
When all of your images are selected, right click on any one of them, and choose "copy" from the menu that appears. All of the selected images will be copied at once.
Click the start button and click on computer. Another panel will pop up just like the first one, showing everything on your computer, including the memory device you just attached.
Double click on the memory device to open it.
Right click where it says to drag or drop your files there, in the wide open space.
From the menu that appears, click "paste."
And wait for your photos to appear.
And I mean it. Wait.
I lost a year's worth of grandbaby pictures because I jumped the gun thinking they were transferred before they really were. Wait for it.
There should be a progress bar that tells you how long you've got left, the percentage of your progress, etc. When that shows that you're done, you probably are. But I'd still wait a minute more. Just in case.
That should do the trick. If you're on a PC. If you're on a Mac, I'm sorry I've wasted your time.
My pictures are in folders of 50. Will it still copy all the pictures in each folder?
Nervous of doing copying when you told me about losing your grandchild's photos.....
It's a flash drive not a card.
Thanks for the step by step; going to have to think about doing it for
awhile; really nervous. These pictures are one of a kind but I need to
get them off my old laptop because it is starting to do weird stuff
and wondering if the thing is going to die with my pictures still on it.
