Bitter cold. All’s well. I think we’ve got a functioning downstairs lavatory. Plumbers have been banging away in there all day, and hopeful messages have emerged. Helen has been here all day, too, supervising and encouraging.
The knitting has gone well. I’m definitely getting the hang of it. The problem is going to be keeping track of which row I’m on. I am determined to be very careful.
And I have continued to read The Running Grave. No hats, no rabbits, increasing gloom, but increasing interest as well. Still a long way to go.
Wordle: Silence from Alexander today. That’s unusual. Two from Mark, three from me, four for the other Brits. In DC, four for Theo and five for Roger. I have something to say about today’s word but will probably have forgotten by tomorrow.
I’ve already forgotten today’s word - but i remember thinking it wasn’t quite right somehow. Hooray for the plumbing fix! It seems like once they found the source of the leak it went quickly. The finding the source seemed to take quite a while, however.
ReplyDeleteHooray for repairs that work.
ReplyDeleteReading an older post re slowness of your laptop. One thing to do is to have a good clean up of your data. There is a way to do this. Basically you save all your data - there are specific folders where this lives and then reset the laptop to factory settings meaning back to before you used it.
ReplyDeleteThis will clean up a lot of issues. Of course you will need to reinstall some programs you use if they are standalone.
However if you do not use any windows programs you may want to consider purchasing a Chromebook. If the majority of your computing is in a browser then this would work well. Google does have applications. Chromebooks are best easy to use and work with printers
If you would like I could have a call with Helen or whomever.
