I hope you are good sports ...

First off, I must say, I'm sorry. Shortly before I wrote my last post, I was watching the news with DH - well it was on and I was in the living room to talk to him, anyway. I don't like to be political, it's not me, but Mr. Trump was on the news and the talk was about him wanting Mexico to pay for that wall. Sigh ... You guys are pretty good eggs for trying to be helpful with a cranky old lady. My sons were not so sympathetic and a friends even said, "Good luck with that!" Has there been any consideration for walls on the Canadian borders? How about mines or something in our coastal waters? You and I and the fence post know who will pay for said wall. Argh.

The good stuff - It's 5:30 and still light enough to see to walk around outside. The days are really getting longer and the weather averages have begun their slow winter temperature climb. One degree warmer for lows and two degrees warmer for daytime highs.
Promising. We almost have January kicked, but February will hold some surprises I'm sure.

We have a new bird feeder. This one holds a bunch, so DH doesn't have to go out there every day. Visitors for now have been Sparrows, Cardinals, and RW Blackbirds. A few other odd ones from time to time. I don't see that thin cable holding up any better than the other one. I cleaned the window and was promptly rewarded (or punished, you choose) by one of the birds slamming into it.

I finished watching Damages with Glenn Close and Rose Byrne, and a host of names in smaller parts. I really liked it. 5 seasons in 5 days! I should have dragged it out, but I couldn't wait to see what happened next!
 

Have a pleasant day, night or in-between!

The Panic Attack

Being a card carrying Techno-phobe, I almost completely really lost it when I read that Win10 was slated to be an automatic update to my Win7. A few years ago, when I had to buy a new computer, Win8 had come on the scene and that was what was on the new computers. I managed to find this califraging Dell with Win7 installed. I already had the programs that would work on it, because when I upgraded the time before, I had to buy new. At the time, I didn't want to have to invest my money and my time, learning a new system and programs. I don't want to have to do that again and the older I get, the more confusing and frustrating it is for me to learn all the new crap garbage sh*t Bleep again!

Yahoo! has changed their page, probably in preparation for Win10, but that is just my assertion. I went to play my games and had to hunt for them. Of course, Blogger and Google have done their bit to mess with my mind.

Son said to fix the comp to 'no updates', but I have a feeling that this too, could eventually turn around and bite me in the bleep. This is the final straw, when my comp no longer works ... I will give it all up and clear out my computer corner for a nice soft recliner and a stack of books. Put a fork in me, I will be done.

Have a good day!
