Hold TIME

The sun continues to shine and look absolutely beautiful but the wind is killer cold. There is a cold front passing through the city today and things are best kept in side. I spent the morning sweating and swearing over my computer. I had a little work to do for the website I host but when I got home yesterday afternoon the system would not boot. It seemed the USB ports have stopped working. The system would not recognize the keybord and I cannot do a whole heck of a lot on the system if I don’t have a working keyboard. I called my usual , Mark but he has to work today late. Then I called my son's friend and friend of the fam Josh. In fact Josh works at PC Club and it is where I bought this system. In fact the system should still be under warranty. I called Josh—who now work round the corner from my house. He gve me some pointers and indicated that he would stop by after work if I did not get the problem worked out. I ended up plugging the p2 connection of the keyboard into the rear the computer rather the using the USB ports. I turned the system on after and sure enough the computer booted right up. That is cool, and let me finish updating Mack’s website but the non functioning USB have be a bit concerned. Hopefully, I will not have to give up my system to the shop.

So it’s a hold time afternoon. Anakah is over for the weekend playing and helping Dianne bake bread and cleanings the house and watch DVDs. The house is cleaning up and warm—I have hot tea and I am content. The visit with the orthopedic surgeon is a week off. I am playing like I am not bothered but I think I scared as hell. I hate going under the knife. I slept poorly last night and when I did sleep I had the strangest dreams. Washing dishes this morning my shoulder hurt—the shoulder is not well and the bicep is no well either. Luckily, I am not in pain, most of the time, and I can care for myself. I have to have the trauma point looked at and just see what the Doc recommends. I am Ok till the 17th.
