Cold nights and AI paranoia

 I had my Tuesday morning to myself as you will remember. The assist team is gone to do a Good Samaritan volunteer job somewhere so no meeting today. Fortunately for me I was able to use that time to finish my November letter mail out project! That's great to have that behind me. Cuz I worked on the project a little bit yesterday all I had to do was to print the letters fold and stuff as well as sign letters. I think I had the envelopes already done that was done yesterday or maybe even Sunday actually. I had a little problem getting started the printer didn't want to use the paper that I was using I guess, in all honesty I think the papers I was using to print on I had the ends bent up which caused the paper to jam so I spent a lot of time opening up the printer and taking the the jammed paper out but eventually I got the letters printed. Ink seems to be holding its own I think I will order in another cassette of ink and however just so I didn't get caught with my pants down- so to speak. The temperature dropped significantly during the night. I was warm and toasty but I think Gardens all around the valley bought it. It was in the low 30s. It was cold outside the one or two times I went out going back and forth to the mailboxes. I also took an hour during the day to do my arm bike so now I just have one more hour to do tomorrow and I'll have my almost 200 minutes in for the week. So I'm coming right along on that but it does take an hour out of my day if not more. So that pretty much took up my whole day. Of course I rewarded myself for having been so focused on the letters that I watched a series on Loki. I have seen the series before but I sure like it. I finished the first season and I started the second luckily there's only been two seasons of Loki perhaps it's best.


I don't know how I did it but for some reason my smaller heater has stopped working. I even had Melissa look at it and she couldn't get it going and she gets everything going. I still have the big heater that Jennifer let me use when the heat went out of the building a few years ago. It just sort of stays here and I love to use it when I have to but I should order in one or two new heaters and give this one back.


I am still vexed at AI. I don't trust it at all but I think that I'm using it more than I think that I am. I think I've talked about it before about correcting the mistakes in my writing and stuff. It took me awhile before I realized that when machine does this it really is a form of AI analyzing what I've written and showing me the mistakes that I've made and I'm okay with that- - but should I be? I mean over my life punctuation punctuation and grammar has always been my weak spot. The AI points that out and even just fixing the underlying spaces underlined words really makes a difference in the product. I don't necessarily like that but that is the plague I guess. I don't think we'll ever be friends however and have any in depth heart to hard drive pieces of communication…
