Another noob question

Remember, without us noobs there would be no such thing as pros! 😉

In my sketch, I'm trying to select a corner where two lines meet at the X-Y axis origin point (red dot) to create a fillet. But it won't allow me to select that corner point. I can only select the vertical or horizontal lines that converge there. Are the two lines somehow not really connected at the origin? Or does the origin point get in the way of selecting the corner point?

@chris, you don't need to select that origin point to fillet lines joining there.  You can also select the lines themselves.

Thanks! But what if I did need to select that corner point. How would I do so when it shares the origin point?

select that point for what?  It kind of depends on what you want to do with it.  There are actually two points there, that are constrained together.  You can see this with Select Other (select and hold the left mouse button).  You can see that there are two separate sketch points there.  You can also see that if you select the point, that there are two coincident constraints there.  One is between the two points, and the other is between one of the points and the two lines.  If you delete the coincident between the two points, you can move that point away from the origin.
