We had a nice long phone conversation with Keith's cousin.  She says that we are her favorite cousins, but then we are her only cousins ;D


It's still sweet of her to put it that way.  :)

Jrand, a mac is the easiest thing to use in the world. It's intuitive, much simpler than Windows. I switched to mac based on people's recommendation right here - this was back in the early 2000s - you won't be talking to India when you need help, either. I was petrified of the change. It took me thirty minutes to figure out what I needed to figure out, got Office for Mac so that I'd have Word, and everything else is soooooo much simpler. Never looked back.

Guck feels like it's going away. Nose is not runny and I didn't take an allergy pill last night.

The bathroom is finished. Everything is back in place, and two unhappy cats want their dinner.

First, last week I had a tire low warning on the rear passenger side tire. Over a year ago, I'd bought a little portable air thing for tires. Never even opened it. So, I did, got it set up, set the tire pressure, and it worked really well - slower than the gas station of course, but only about two minutes for that tire.

I looked across the street at the Gelson's lot and it was insanity personified. Guess it never occurred to anyone to shop on Saturday. Just ridic. Anyway, I walked over, got what I needed and since they had every line open including an express line, I got in and out in five minutes.

I found the whole trip exhausting, frankly, just being out that twenty minutes.

It helps when they are ready and organized for the crowds.

Not much older than I was in the photo from last night, I began to be part of Keith's family.  They were all very good to me.  By the time we were married I was introduced as daughter, niece, cousin vs simply Keith's wife.

Yesterday Keith's 89 year old aunt, the much younger sister of his mother, died.  She was the last of our aunts and uncles between us. The ending was long and sad and I was already missing conversations with her and sharing book recommendations.

My condolences to you and Keith. :'(

Thanks DR JOHN G, DR RON PULLIAM, and MR BK for your thoughts.

I am thinking I may buy it and if I can't figure it out or don't like it, I can donate it to the theatre when spring/summer comes along.

A lot of our tech is computer driven and we have MACs in the tech loft.
