Mar. 25th, 2013 01:12 pmSunday I came to the conclusion that the computer at home is going to die sometime soon. Oh, the noises it makes. Today I'm in the library computer lab. Leofwyna has said that since we can't do the three week California/Pacific Coast trip we might use those funds for a new computer instead of leaning on Dwolm yet again to deal with our tower problems. I'm all for that! Meanwhile I'm still working on the crazy quilt tops.

Feb. 3rd, 2013 12:41 pmSome dusting and a few blasts of canned air and the harddrive is sounding a LOT better. Saturday I got both coats painted on the kitchen walls.

Feb. 2nd, 2013 11:07 amFriday Leofwyna headed out for her errands. I dinked around a little with the drapery rods in the living room trying to put them back up. There's a couple pieces of hardware I've misplaced and need to find or replace so I ended up not accomplishing anything. We went to scribal in the evening. I'm afraid our harddrive may die soon; it's being pretty noisy these days.

Jan. 27th, 2012 11:16 pmThursday I washed up a big pile of dishes, ran through several loads of laundry and cooked up a big corned beef and brussel sprouts for supper. Then we located the thin-profile monitor we bought last spring at the hospital clearance for employees-only sale and set it up with the new-to-us desk computer system. Now we have Little Sister's old monitor to offer on FreeCycle as we have a more recent one to go into storage as a backup for ourselves.. We need to get the hard-drives from both the old towers destroyed.
Friday I made the rounds of all four Goodwills to take advantage of the 99-cent sale and found 31 garments and 17 Food Stars magazines too. Half a dozen of the garments are for me to wear and the rest are cottons for cutting. Tonight I'm crashed in front of the tv... not going to do anything the least strenuous. Loefwyna's called three times making her spring camping plans.

Jan. 25th, 2012 11:37 pmTuesday and Wednesday I gloried in being able to read emails and blogs at home, then plunged into ancestry.com again. This was on the laptop as the work is incomplete on the desk computer and the laptop is slower for some reason so I'll have to ask Dwolm about that. Wednesday evening was social moot and baby Jane's birthday so there was cake and cookies and a good turnout.
When Leofwyna got home from taking a fudge-frosted chocolate cake to Dwolm she had the replacement computer tower he found for us. It is plugged in and she is reading her email on it so I'd say that's a WIN!

Oct. 31st, 2011 11:11 amFriday I loaded up the car and we headed west. Along the way when we got to the Loup River we saw three bald eagles in flight... Beautiful!!! We went to spend time with our stepmother. She's always asking why we don't visit more. So we watched the World Series game with her family Friday and THE football game Saturday. During all these sports, I made my way through an entire bag of cotton cutters I'd brought along just in case. Saturday afternoon we were introduced to the new dog, part Newfoundland and BIG, and played squash frisfee with her. Also loaded up on squashes and beets to take home for cooking. Pattypan, Acorn, Butternut, Peanut, Sweet Potato squashes... many sorts I'd not encountered before.
Finally, Saturday evening we played some pinochle. We left Sunday morning so we'd be able to stop and see Uncle Guilford in the afternoon. The scrabble game with Guilford was won by Leofwyna this time but only by a very small margin. It was a close, close game all through. Then Lawayne and Pam showed up and we got to visit with them awhile also.
Back at home we caught up with the kitties and Amazing Race. The laptop seems to have serious problems so I need to find somewhere to get it cleaned or repaired on the cheap. Tonight we're delighted to be back in our own beds!
