I started writing
this this morning but will finish it now in the evening. I want to share the
moon rise with everyone.
Funny how the
little, insignificant things in life can irritate you. Now that I’m using my PC
again instead of the laptop I’m having to learn both the keyboard and the
programs all over again. The keys like delete and end are in different places
and I’m back using Windows 7 instead of Windows 8. something and my old version
of Office. So another relearning process going on. Surprisingly I’ve discovered
I like a couple of the functions of Windows 8.? and miss them in 7. I think I
have everything transferred off the laptop on to the PC, but will wait a couple
of days before putting the laptop in the cupboard.
It is really nice
to have the Internet - unlimited data I can just browse and browse looking for
things I think I want or need. And it is much faster than the MiFi. Though not
as fast as I wanted. We don’t live in a “really fast Internet” area. Maybe
someday.
I had a different
experience the other day - one that kind of made me mad. Went to Bed, Bath and
Beyond in Henderson, NV to do some shopping. Bought a couple of storage baskets
for the freezer, a bath mat and a set of sheets for our bed - if we ever get
it. The sheets were not cheap but I had a coupon so figured I’d use it. When I
got to the check out the clerk unzipped the plastic around the sheets and stuck
her hand in the package and felt around for quite a while - making sure there
was nothing hidden in the package. REALLY! Kind of insulted me. In a Bed, Bath
and Beyond in Henderson? I questioned her and she said, “Well you never know.
Sometimes kids stick things in there.” Kids? Did she see any kids with me? Kind
of left a sour taste.
Kind of makes one
wonder what society is coming to.
Bill was working
in his garage again this morning while it was still relatively cool out there.
He is getting a lot done. Has shelves and counters on three sides. And still
has wood left.
While he was
working out there I was putting some of my piggy collection out in
the kitchen.
We had to go to
“the other side” of town today. To pick up some mail from our son’s office and
Bill wanted to go to his favorite store “Harbor Freight.” So off we went. He found what he was looking
for at the tool store, we got our mail and then ran a couple more errands.
Later in the afternoon we started putting “the cabinet” together. Got it about
half done. The sucker is heavy - don’t know if we’ll be able to stand it up.
I also got a call
from the doctor’s office. They discovered I have an infection so am now on
antibiotics. Funny, I asked them yesterday if anything showed up from Monday.
They said no, so I was surprised when they called today. Oh well.
On the way home
from the pharmacy noticed the full moon rising and the pretty sunset. Just some
pictures of the moon and the sunset.
