1. Thanks to the former "Sam I am" who is now "Self Sufficient Sam" who told me there was something funky with comments on my blog. I am sure it was something I did inadvertently, but I think I fixed it. Thanks for your patience!
2. Somehow this post disappeared and the only way I could republish it was as a "new" post. It was from August and everything below is exactly the same.
I want to apologize for leaving only cryptic comments and never posting. My keyboards and fingers are having issues.
I am currently using a Chromebook purchased to help with homeschooling grandchildren during the Pandemic. Again the keyboard is smaller and so is the screen. Bah Humbug.
I really don't feel like buying a new laptop (although I should) and I need to find the time to download all that stuff I should have been downloading on my external hard drive. And upload my pictures. And generally clean the thing up. Bah Humbug.
About 6 or 7 years ago I had surgery on both hands for various "trigger fingers", fingers that would freeze in a clenched position. It was not a pleasant experience and now I have two more fingers freezing in my right hand. I need to decide how I am going to deal with that, too. Bah Humbug.
And I am thinking I need to talk to my eye doctor about my cataracts, too. Bah Humbug.
And my school teacher daughter and daughter in law are back to school and we have seven children under 9 here everyday for breakfast, lunch and amusement. I am attempting to potty train the youngest two. Bah Humbug.
I plan to whine until September 1 and then get over it and make some decisions, appointments and purchases. Thanks for listening to my whine.
It is so painful when they freeze in a bad position, I used vet wrap on my one finger until I could have surgery as it would jump out of place all the time. It looked funny but it worked!
ReplyDeleteSorry you have so many hurdles to get over, cataracts is a pretty easy surgery except on the pocketbook.
Sending good thoughts your way and I know you will have the toddlers trained in no time! :)
WOW!! I do not know how you do it with all those kids...I certainly hope your children appreciate your sacrifice to watch their children for them.... I too have been having vision problems and were diagnosed with cataracts several years ago. I am putting off checking into it until I get on Medicare the beginning of the year as my insurance now does not even cover an eye exam....Thanks so much for all your visits and for your kind words....Stay safe, healthy and happy!!

Awww, I get the finger issues. Mine are joints going crooked but this summer it isn't too bad....and I have to call an make another appt for those eyes of mine too.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear from you! You should just use a Chromebook? They work pretty well right? I use my husband's old one once in a while.
I had to purchase a laptop last fall as my old one took up to 30 minutes to boot up and then kept freezing whenever I used certain programs. It was 8 years old and on its last legs.
Well, keep on whining! But save a glass of wine for me. So good to hear what is happening in your world!
ha-ha! I feel ya, though maybe in different ways. I am bah-humbug about a whole heck of a lot most days. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteYou are a person who gets things done. I am always amazed at the huge range of projects and responsibilities you take on. I know it can be frustrating to have both physical and technical issues that slow things down. But somehow I think you will get things straight. Take care!
ReplyDeleteMe again!! Thanks so much for stopping by!! I do have to say that the chicken cordon blue just melted in your mouth!! Stay safe, healthy and happy!!
