stuff matters

 

 

Trying to learn bridge, but have a hard time remembering the stuff that matters...

 

Good nite, all

 

Max says dulce suenos

[gail]

Matters greatly

Hello! Like that, short and sweet. Off to work.

[TryinginFL]

greatly appreciated

 

 

I have greatly appreciated all of the support and friendship I have received on this site

 

Many, many thanks to all!!!

[fishinghat]

appreciated you

[TryinginFL]

you see...
 
 
Thank you, FH!

 

I wish you could see all the sand hill cranes here - a little while ago there were 18 of them about 1/2 block away - guess they were having a party - yikes!  Such noise!

see beauty

 

I bet that was nice. I love seeing wildlife.

[TryinginFL]

beauty shop

 

 

Guess it's an old term, but I am going to the beauty shop on Fri. to get my hair cut, etc.  Supposedly they would make you beautiful (?)

 

Bridge lesson tomorrow am

[fishinghat]

shop Amazon

 

Oh boy. It is the only thing I could think of. Must have brain paralysis.

 

I like the new PC for daycare centers. They are called "children learning centers". Just another word for a bunch of crying and fighting children. HJey, I am on a roll today. Is it a full moon?

[gail]

Amazon America

Nothing else in brain either.

On a roll, that is good news really. No full moon, must have something to do with Ash Wednesday!

[TryinginFL]

America changing

 

 

I'm sorry to even type that...

 

It took 18 hours for my computer to download 21 upgrades - is this normal??

[gail]

Changing style

Do we have a computer pro in here? That would be so useful for us.

How was the bridge? Anyone interesting??? They are lucky to have you with them. I can hear the men whistling from here dear!

Our boy is on a roll here, that is great! Off to supper.

[TryinginFL]

style becoming

 

 

Is your style becoming?

 

Yep, we sure could use a computer pro - FH?

 

Bridge was OK but we are only 4 women with a woman instructor - nothing exciting!  I am still feeling slow as my mind doesn't absorb  things without repeating - hopefully I will get it in time.  This is not an easy game!!

[fishinghat]

becoming stable

 

I wouldn't say I am a pro but I am familiar with them. It should only take about 30 minutes to an hour to load updates. One thing that would probably help would be to clean-up your computer. No, not with soap and water. lol  Get rid of all your old emails, documents and esp pictures (they use a lot of memory). You can also delete browsing history, error code history and several other things as well BUT you have to be careful. Each operating system (vista, Windows 7, 8 and 10 are all a little different. If you are not tech savvy you can take it to your local Best Buy and they will clean up your computer for around $50. Another option is to call Windows. Well actually you can't 'call' Windows. You go to their website and request a call back. Give your name and number and they usually call back pretty quickly. If you tell them about the slow uploads they can connect with your computer over the internet, take control of your computer and do the clean-up work and troubleshoot the issue. If you get into anything to difficult they will stop, tell you what is going on and tell you that charges may occur if they continue. BUT I have used them 2 or 3 times per year. They have always done a great job and it has never cost me a penny.

[TryinginFL]

stable clean

 

 

Thanks, FH!  Think my best bet is to get in touch with Windows - I have 7

I also have Webroot and had downloaded Team Viewer for another fix from Adguard

 

Can't afford the $50

 

I have a tablet but still haven't mastered it...

[gail]

Clean windows

Last thing that I want to do is clean windows. I can't, for the life of me, do a good job. Mirrors, the same! Oh, I do it more than three times in a row and I am never satisfied.

Good night to all♥

[TryinginFL]

windows dirty

 

 

I understand about the mirrors and windows - I'm in the same place!

 

Found a great new "makeup" for old folks - I got really excited about it and ordered some!!

[gail]

Dirty streets

Does it hide the wrinkles Liz? I want a load of them!

Really, what is it?

[TryinginFL]

streets icy

 

 

Take care on those icy streets, Gail!

 

Sent you a PM regarding face stuff - didn't think FH or anyone else would be interested!

 

Just got home from Bible Study and church and picked up some Chinese on the way home...

 

How is the weather there?

[gail]

Icy hands

Got it, thanks!

The coldest day of the year with minus 26celsius. FH could translate this. On Tuesday, rain!!!!! With 40 Farenheit. Crazy stuff here.

Long time no eat Chinese. So good!

Your schedule sounds full, good thing you don't work, you would not have the time!!♥

Fisherman, still on a roll! Stopped rolling here, for the moment..♥

[TryinginFL]

hands soft

 

 

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

 

Gail, your weather sounds absolutely ghastly - BRRRRR

 

Disappointed in the Chinese - House Special Fried Rice had a little chicken, hardly any pork and 1 shrimp!  This a place I have been going for years...

 

You're right, Gail - I have about 3 days a week that I can do nothing!!

[fishinghat]

soft hearted

 

Talk about food....My new diet has really helped so many of my more minor medical issues I will probably continue on it for the rest of my life BUT that means NO eating out.  EVER!  But that is better than feeling bad.

 

minus 26 C is around 15 F. Ice storm this morning but over now. Roads are clearing. Tomorrow 54F  WOW and 70 by the end of the week.

 

Happy valentines day my valentines.

[gail]

Hearted...what?

What goes with that word???

How sweet Fisherman! Hi Liz! One shrimp...el cheapo!

Saying goodnight♥

[TryinginFL]

what, indeed

 

 

Just checking in...

 

Buenas Noches

[gail]

Indeed, sure

Hello! Gone shoveling...

[TryinginFL]

sure enough

 

 

Storms were predicted during the nite, and sure enough, it was wild!  Very loud thunder and constant lightening flashes - dogs were restless and Max tried to calm them down.

 

Shoveling, Gail?  Apparently you had some snow...

[fishinghat]

enough warmth

 

I am going shoveling too Gail!! Going to work in the garden!!

[TryinginFL]

warmth enjoyed

 

 

What are you doing in the garden, FH?  Just curious...

 

Now have Bridge CD in my computer and will have to spend a couple of hours on it today - my brain seems to take longer to absorb new info

[fishinghat]

enjoyed something

 

I enjoy something but I am not sure what....

 

That's it.  God's love.

 

I am tilling the soil for spring planting. I till it about 3 times a winter to give the insect eggs and pupae in the soil a chance to freeze and die. No pesticide use for me!!

[gail]

Something hot

Needed something hot, so humid here, a hot bath just did the job!

Liz, we had about 4 inches followed by "gresil" and then rain. A cocktail party! Would have loved to see hear the thunder, but no, just snow plows.

Tilling the soil, does it ever freeze in winter? Spring is not far now and then I will change my signature to "Is it autumn yet?" Never satisfied for long here.

Back from the dentist, better than I thought.

[TryinginFL]

hot sun

 

 

Believe it or not, it is 80 degrees in the sun today!  Beautiful

 

I am guessing, Gail - is gresil like ice? or freezing rain?

 

Glad your dentist visit was a good one!
