...and now I have to learn this new machine's peculiarities! This I definitely didn't need. No PhotoShop. More woes: 1) it is not reading the DVD I burned with most of my pictures on it which means that I have to take new pictures until I get my own, comfy computer back. 2) One more keyboard has accumulated enough cat hair 'neath the space bar that it doesn't deliver more than half the time; I must either slam the space bar the way mid-level executives hit their keyboards -- or go back and insert spaces between most words. But: I'm back on-line and out of the great black hole where I've been stuck!!! Thank you for your patience.

The Loaner Arrived...

Welcome back G.J.! Morning coffee without you is just isn't the same...

Sorry my first post back was so surly! It's the dang cat hair in the keyboard -- guru's son busted his butt getting me the loaner & I thank him mightily!
ReplyDeleteA little cat hair won't hurt, unless you have an allergy.
ReplyDeleteSteve-- the cat hair gets between the space bar & its contact, as a result, I have to work to get spaces between words. Takes time & tries my patience!
ReplyDeleteBesides -- you are a writer, Steve. Imagine sitting down at the keyboard, your story is connecting fast with your fingers andthedangspacebarisn't working.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Linda G.
ReplyDeleteWhere-ever I am in the great state of Arizona on any given morning, I love to check in with your blog as the coffee gets to work.
Glad to have you bet, J!
You have a point (grin).
