I've now got rid of the stupid start screen waking up every 3 seconds as well. It was a dragging-from-border thing.

Whew. Much better. :)

I was not going to be able to sleep otherwise! :D:eek:

(not that I am very sleepy, but I'll have to try... soon... ish. maybe.)

Hi, Ladies, :heartthrob:

I will return to this Thursday as the tech stuff angers me even more than it stresses me out and Wed is the long day.

I appreciate your posts.

Mari!

Oh dear!

Thanks for putting up with my rants then. :o Anyway, all is well today. The little elves running up and down the wires in my computers are content, as am I! :)

Interesting about Wednesdays being your long day. Is that a choice or just the way your schedule is this semester? I have often made Wednesdays my longest work day but only because it seemed to work well for me that way.

Have a good, productive day today.

The long Wednesday is mostly by choice to make up for my not working any early mornings.
THis Wednesday was longer than usual because of a meeting that started at 7:30 pm and went until 8:45 pm.

The electronic thingy on the thermostat tells me the temperature outside and inside but the reading for inside is clearly not correct. When it is cold, it shows the inside temp higher than it really is.
(So for example, if it says 74 and I am freezing, I think that 77 is a good plan. (!!!?????!)
I set the heat to 77 degrees F. :eek:

I woke up a few mins ago to feeling too warm. Yuck. :(
I will open a door to cool down the place and then it will be too cold again. (At the time I am typing this, the Internet says it is 57 degrees F outside.)
I have no idea about the temp inside except that I am going to throw up if I do not open the door soon. :confused:

I did not sleep enough Mon or Tues night ----- certainly not enough to deal with Wednesday.

Waves,

Very good that your computer is doing what it is supposed to be doing.
The elves are doing your bidding :) :) :) :)

My sister is being generous,and is going to give me a refurbished computer for my birthday,and Christmas present. This computer that I'm on now is a 2002 Dell. It is starting to loose downloading capabilities. It's starting to loose Youtude music,and voice capabilities. It's kind of breaking up,and stopping,and starting voice,and music on Youtube.

She chose the computer with her computer expert friend. I've had this computer for about four years,and no one has touched it but me. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Steve,

How do you feel about change? Sometimes I would almost rather stay with the old machine even though it is not doing a great job.

Youtube!!! :D :boy(music):

Youtube has recently become my favorite thing in the whole world.
I watch when I am waking up, the last thing before I go to bed . . . . . all my breaks at work . . . . . :Music 2:

I hope the computer works out for you.:Good-Luck:

In general,I don't like change. With the new cellphones,computers,and etc.,etc.,they have five hundred million(I'm being silly)ways to do the same thing.

I do like youtube also,and it will be a pleasure to get it back,and sounding normal. This computer is going to be history very soon. It's wearing out. It's had two former owners. BF:hug::hug::hug:

You and the computer were friends for a while, but maybe it is time for you to part ways.

Do you ever give objects names?
I have done that but not lately that I can think of.
. . like naming your car or a piece of equipment?
