Your Terminal transcript above says otherwise, because (a) you're standing in 
"/Users/TamaraB/Desktop/mymodules" and (b) the "ls" command shows:

  mymodules

Therefore, _inside_ the "/Users/TamaraB/Desktop/mymodules" folder there is 
something called "mymodules", unless the transcript above is not complete.

Please pos the result of:

  ls -laR /Users/TamaraB/Desktop/mymodules
