One of the most tragic things I know about human nature
is that all of us tend to put off living.

We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon
instead of enjoying the roses blooming......
outside our windows today.
~Dale Carnegie~

Many laptops can output to a regular computer monitor, or to a TV with the right connections.

Look for a fifteen-pin connection, usually labeled VGA.

You may need a cable. If you can’t find one locally, they can be ordered over the Internet (for a more reasonable cost).

Consider it a Plan “B”. It’s also a good idea to have a plug-in keyboard for your laptop as well. And I couldn’t abide not having a regular mouse for it.

Thank you, Meg! We ALL have tests - but, some seem to have ‘easier’ tests than others............

We will grow, only if we embrace the goodness in the tests we are presented with.

(And, day-ummm, those ‘growing pains’ ain’t easy sometimes, but, we stand a bit taller after each ‘growth spurt’.)

You KNOW I love hyacinths! I can almost smell them from CA!

((((HUGS))))) to you and all the prayer warriors here!

Yes ..I know you love hyacinths



Wish the graphic were scented for you!
God knows you are having a test...I am happy you have
growth spurts..I know it is a slow go and painful..Hope
the new sling is making life a bit more comfortable.
Praying for you is easy to do..We love you.

Hello yorkie. Great to “see” you again.

Maybe we should all get together and flood your room with hyacinths.

Washing machine broke yesterday so we bought a new one. You’d think an item like that would last longer than 18 years. They just don’t make ‘em like they used to. ;^)

Prayers continue for you and your recovery.

Hey, Dave! Good to 'see' YOU, again, too.
I haven't been online too much these past few weeks.

So you had a broken washing machine?


Bet you and your bride are glad you didn't have to replace it
with one like our Grandma used! LOL!

I feel so ‘out’ of it.......my washer is a top loader - guess everyone has those new-fangled front loaders these days. It’s getting so I can’t keep up with technology.

My kids got me an I-Phone when I was in the hospital. It was free. (My old cell phone had enough credits to cover the cost - LOL!) My only regret, is that the ‘old’ cell phone doesn’t work any more.
