Was up at 04:30AM and had coffee with my bride, Then she was off to the truck company and then the restaurant.
First off I want to welcome our 152nd follower,Kelly who is married to Al of the Bayfield Bunch, Their blog is world famous and I have been following them since 2009, I thought Al had signed up with us before as I hear from him all the time, But welcome aboard Kelly & AL, and Donna enjoys reading about your work at the lodge and hopes someday we can all meet up.
Adam slept in until about 07:00AM it is raining and supposed to continue all day with a high of 67 degrees.
My son got a new monitor for his Dell Desktop that I gave him and a new Dell keyboard. When I went to swap the parts the monitor was missing a monitor cable so I had to make a run to Radio Shack. I have plenty of power cables here, but none of the svga cables with the small connector on each end. Got that finished and it is up and running for him. The pictures are so much better on those new lcd monitors than on the old cathode ray jobs.
Adam is stuck inside and is playing his XBOX, I don’t mind him spending time on a rainy day but when it’s nice we limit the time he spends on games and encourage him to go out and play with his buddies. Luckily the other parents around here feel the same way. Must be the country attitude. I would rather cart them swimming or somewhere else than have em in front of a TV all day.
I am going to have to make a run to someplace where they recycle old computers I have 2, 900 desktops that still work, another desktop that is shot, about (3) 19 in monitors that still work. and a bunch of old drives (CD-DVD) from the desktops. I usually smash up the hard drives and then donate the rest for parts.
Donna and I have gone to each having a laptop so all the office type stuff can go, I do have a LCD monitor and docking station for my laptop set up on my downstairs office desk, but when we hit the road that will go to my son and I will buy a new laptop to go with us.
Not much else going on, I hope the trash was picked up Wednesday is usually our day, but when Monday is a holiday they run a day late.
Hope all is well for everyone out there in blogland. Be safe out there. Sam & Donna……
It's good to each have your own laptop..I have trouble kicking McGyver off the computer to do some "surfing" of my own!
ReplyDeleteI am about to send my laptop back to the HP hospital to get my screen hinge repaired. I hate to send it because I'll be without a computer for about 2 weeks. I don't mind using Mike's but I prefer mine!!

ReplyDeleteFor RV'ers if both spouses are computer users than it's pretty much a must to have 2 computers when traveling. Or, have a good divorce lawyer on a retainer!
ReplyDeleteBefore we went full time, Jim came home with a new laptop and asked me what I thought of it. I tried it out and then asked him what he was going to use. lol He went back the next day and got another one just like it. But they are getting old and we really need to think about upgrading them. Which I absolutely hate to do.
ReplyDeleteOur first couple years of travel we only had one laptop between us. Looking back now I cannot see how we possibly did that without some very major disagreements. But, we did. What a relief it was to finally pick up a second laptop in Sierra Vista Arizona 3 years ago. Sharing doesn't work well when two computer people only have one computer.
