From A Foreign Computer

My compter’s keyboard and battery decided not to work anymore the other day, and so I am borrowing my husband’s computer until new parts can arrive. It is funny how much I took for granted the comfort and ease of having my very own laptop, set up just the way I like it, loaded with all the software I find helpful, and with my folders organized for easy use. I feel like I am in foreign territory, even though we have the exact same model of laptop.
I am hoping that the new keyboard unit will be delivered tomorrow, and that Jeramy can perform the operation in time for my Sunday “52” post. I suppose if not, I will make do using the computer I am on right now.
What’s been going on the past few days?
~Lots and lots (and lots!) of art making with Simon at his new easel.
~Showing him how to make enchiladas and get the perfect fold. He was in charge of sprinkling the cheese.
~A friend borrowed my car the other day and was in an accident. My friend is ok but my car is not. Thank goodness for Triple A, insurance, and a trustworthy mechanic.
~Thinking a lot about my upcoming birthday. I would like to go out dancing!
~Back to bitter cold temperatures, and more snow on the ground. (Which is what caused the aforementioned car accident.)
~I joined a book club recently, in order to force myself to read more fiction, and we are about to begin a new book, Still Alice by Lisa Genova. Anyone read this?
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
















I always hate using someone else’s computer, for just those reasons! Always foreign territory.
Love the enchiladas, hate the car accident
Oh, let us know how the book is!
Oh no! Your friend must feel awful! Hope your computer will work again too! My computer died this past fall and I did something funny with my last back up so I essentially lost 3 months of stuff! If you end up getting a new computer don’t get Windows 8. I saw a joke on one of those late night shows that said Windows 8 is a great gift for someone you hate!
I saw a preview of Windows 8 and it looked terrible!
sorry to hear about the accident, but on the bright side, the foreign computer takes nice pictures. Crisp and clear, I can see you like Cabot cheese just like me. I find that Cabot’s melts very easily in the microwave.
And it is from a company that I trust. They are ethical and from the USA
Totally jealous that you can get Cabot SHREDDED. OMG. They don’t have that in PA!
They only sell one type of it shredded in my supermarket. I usually get a block and grate myself, but sometimes when we are in a rush it is a helpful shortcut.
