Good Happy Monday morning, ArGee.

I hope your weekend was a pleasant one. We had snow in some places, here. At least, that’s the word on one of the FB Groups.

[Monkey Face]

Are you still growing mushrooms? Just checking!

For whatever reason, the laptop keeps running slow or locking up every morning, and it just did it again.

Must be Monday.

[ArGee]

We had temps in the 70s here. We went to the in-laws and put steaks and hot dogs in their grill yesterday.

No new seizures for the week so I breathed a sigh of relief yesterday.

[ArGee]

Any pattern as to what you’re doing when the laptop starts lugging or freezes?

I think sometimes these new WebSite capabilities take the latest and greatest power in laptops.

[Monkey Face]

Could it be that I have more than three windows open? Or more than two? This time, it froze when I was in the middle of a PM with my son. There seems to be no other consistent criteria than having more than two windows open. Or the time of day.

[ArGee]

It depends on what the windows are or what the power of your laptop is. I have a fairly recent generation machine but if I’m running our meeting system with video it lags. And I think some ads on some web pages do that to it, too.

[Monkey Face]

FR, FB or MeWe, (and maybe now, Parler, since most of FB is heading there) and Yahoo mail, which window I usually use for a miscellaneous search window. I’m in the process of sending most of my FB contacts to MeWe. Maybe I’ll have to send them to Parler, as well.

I haven’t checked on the mushrooms in the last few days. I’m planning to plant the mycelium mass out in the garden, once the weeding is done.

This morning, I pruned the holly trees in addition to quite a bit of other stuff. Next will be a Pat Driving Adventure.

[Monkey Face]

The bed is made and after this dose of pills I might get something done. This is probably Monday, from the looks of things.

[ArGee]

I actually work in a mushroom patch.

[Monkey Face]

I used to work in a mushroom patch. It was called a cubicle and it was so small that the chair faced out and I had to back in. Yep. Right next to the supervisor’s desk... ;o]

[Tax-chick]

Cheated Death Again!

[ArGee]

You’d better hope Death isn’t planning retaliation.

[Tax-chick]

I think Death is playing the long game.

[Monkey Face]

I hear that phrase but it has no meaning for me. So in lieu of asking for an explanation, I’ll ask you to forgive my exit to bed!

Ta!

[Tax-chick]

Best wishes for a swell Tuesday!

I got a lot of yardwork done today. I will hurt tomorrow.

[Tax-chick]

[Monkey Face]

It’s 32° and feels like 27°. I’m not looking forward to my freezing trip to Walmart but, water.

[Tax-chick]

Good morning. It is warm here.

[Monkey Face]

Another sweet face to start my day! Thanks!

Good morning.

The pills have been sorted and I start another round of tea this morning, and I’m hoping the next six months will be that last six months. It’s an expensive necessity!

I awoke in a panic in the middle of the night, thinking today was the day I had to go in to the ophthalmologist but then I remembered: that’s Wednesday!

Now I need to go get the sleep shirts and get them off the hangers to be folded when I get back from Walmart. I’ll make the bed while I’m in there.
