Happy Wednesday Everyone! it's overcast and chilly here this morning but at least it's not raining.
I'm happy to say that my fiasco with my laptop yesterday is over. Still don't know what I did but when my daughter took her lunch break I asked her to see why it suddenly went to a black screen and wouldn't work. As soon as she opened it, it came right back on and is fine. Duh! She doesn't know what I did but apparently I did something
So, here I am enjoying my coffee and ready to chat.
What's going on in your little corner of the myLot world?

Hope the side-effects aren't too bad and the meds help more than not. How's the smoke there? Still affecting you from that fire?
I'm certainly happy I don't need a new laptop

@Marilynda1225 Oh, Marilyn. The smoke is really bad. I keep thinking it will get better, and I guess it has…

@AmbiePam that doesn't sound good Amber. It can't be healthy breathing in that smoke even if its gotten better. Any chance you can spend some time at your dads even if you come & go back & forth between places? Wish you lived closer

I got a mobility scooter Monday but had to charge the battery, it was raining yesterday so didn't go anywhere, and today is too damn cold to try it out (threat of snow) or do anything in the garden. May as well go back to bed. At least I'd be warm.

@Marilynda1225 I am glad. If it picked a time to go down yesterday was a good one, we lost the site for most of the day.

Its funny because I had time to chat here this morning and I couldn't get into discussions or notifications once I wrote my post.
I was just thinking about you and wondering how you were and the boys (Roscoe &Tuffy)

Just hoping the site gets back to normal. I’m having lunch and looking at the songs posted in my music group.
I don’t miss issues with Windows at all!

I just got my roll top desk delivery a few minutes ago and I am happy, as I am sure you are with your laptop back. Congrats!

I'm glad your laptop is working again. Too bad myLot isn't working very well.
It's chilly and overcast here today but my phone insists that it's sunny but even it shows overcast pictures on the weather app screen.
I've got a call in to the garage to come pick my car up tomorrow and look and see what all needs to be done. I hope it won't cost and arm and a leg for repairs.
I hope you have a great day.

Occasionally my computer starts acting weird. I can sometimes fix it by just turning it off for a while.

I love my laptop and switched to it when my desktop stopped working. I can't imagine not having one now.

Glad whatever it is that you touched had no bad effect to your laptop! Best wishes. Nothing but usual life around here. Still hoping and living; or living and hoping. And mylotting too!

Mylot stopped working yesterday and I couldn't interact here. Anywways, my days are pretty mundane now.

I'm glad you have that figured out. I'm sleepy and waiting to toss a cheese pizza into the oven. We're going to have our second poetry reading tonight so we need a fast no brains dinner first.

I am working on completing surveys and sharing news stories on this post under a sunny day.
