From the back porch - January 28, 2020

 

This porch-sitting may not last long - it's a little on the chilly side.

I'm going in when my hands begin to freeze.

Another new toy - a new laptop - arrived this week.  I'm typing on it now, test-driving it on the porch.

New computers are such a bitch.  Once I woke this one up, I spent a good hour going through the settings to make sure that it won't, of its own accord, snap my picture and send it to Alexa, who might then send it to the world as a Halloween horror screen saver, or something.  Once all that was done, I started re-installing the software I need to run my toys.  I hope I can find everything I need online, for this new machine doesn't have a CD drive and can't read my old program discs.  Next, I'll have to gather up the files that are currently strewn between my old laptop and the old PC.  That'll be fun.  And I don't have another mouse, yet (I hate keyboard mice).  

I got a shipment of heat-press-related goodies this week - ordered some baby "onesies" and some keychains to play with.  My new granddaughter can wear the onesies that I screw up as I practice.  

Aaaannnnnd I'm cold.

Time to go inside and do something useful.
