Goodness! Welcome back, Outer Banks detail!

And Dog, you should remember not to bite the hands that feed you when your Human is away.

Since before noon...I was trying to find a PDF reader that wouldn’t default to something I couldn’t understand every time I wanted to open a file, and I ended up inadvertently downloading a program that had a dozen hitch hikers on it, and it also over-rode my current Edge to the old Explorer. I was not only frustrated, but I was also suffering from some ugly nausea (two days in a row) and I was confused by all of the above.

I finally remembered how to pick a restore point (in this case, 0608 this morning) and the laptop spent 45 minutes restoring all the files. I’m still needing to find a PDF reader that I can use to open everything.

Specifically, a crocheted coat pattern for one little Bella, who has no coat to fit her little body. (And my Real Brother’s newspaper columns.) I think I have enough yarn left over from the door snake to make it, but I need to download it so I can print it. (It used to be, we could print out the pattern without downloading. But now, LionBrandYarn.com has “advanced,” and I need a good reader. (NOT Adobe!)

Can’t help you with anything tech-y.

Google Chrome works pretty well, as does Microsoft Edge.
