Well, you've read the notes, the notes have noted the start of a new book in a New Year, and also spoke of an intimately intimate gathering, and now it is time for you to post until the intimate cows come home.

And the word of the day is: REJUVENATE!

I was literally about to post this last night to finish my Applebee's story:

And the real kicker is that Shelly ate her chicken broccoli Alfredo dish after coming home...and it gave her diarrhea!!

Good morning, all!

So far, the morning's been hell.

I slept well, the alarm rang at 5:30, I got up, dressed. opened the computer, cleaned out my emails, and stood up to feed the cats. It was just before 6:15, and I thought, I need to remove this external drive and replace it with the new one.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #7 on:** January 02, 2025, 04:50:16 AM »

Because I amcomputer-challenged, I unplugged it only to realize I did not have a new externmal drive; I had a new hub. I'm a moron.

So, I re-plugged all the old plugs, and the computer shut down. This led to my crawling around the floor to see if I had, in turning the computer around, unplugged something like an iMac from the power cable. Only I'm too crippled to accomplish anything. Once I got onto the floor, I was holding the flashlight in one hand, keeping my balance with the other, and unable to crawl under the table to check the state of things.

I fed the cats, made a cup of coffee and sent Ann and Jen a text on m y cell phone: Happy New Year! Are you back? I drank my coffee and looked for my keys since I need to take the recyclables to the basement. I decided I would try to examine the power cable from another angle.

I then went to the end of the computer table against the filing cabinets where the power cable resides. Everything seemed to be plugged in. I went back to the computer and pressed the power button; still dead.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 02, 2025, 05:01:35 AM »

I sat in front of a dead screen, and I thought, Hmmm, all this began when I replugged everything. Maybe that's the problem. Well, it was. As soon as I replugged everything and pressed the [power button, the computer opened. My day can only go up from there.

And that's enough of me!

Been in that exact spot DR ELMORE.

Glad it was fixed.

I Spent January 1 in bed - sleeping, reading, and watching tv.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 02, 2025, 05:09:10 AM »

My New Year's Day was quiet. I played with the iTunes - still on the A's - and had a nice dinner of pork and sauerkraut. After I gave the cats their evening treat, we finished watching Return to Cranford. I don't understand how Heidi Thomson, who's created Call the Midwife and wrote such wonderful screenplays for the two Cranford series could so badly mangle the book for that shitty version of Lerner and Loewe's Gigi that closed pretty quickly in 2015.

Good morning DR LAURA.

I babysat last night and took Mama to work. I hope I don't pick up anything. We stopped at McDonalds and got a Happy Meal. It cost $7.05. I guess it's been a while since I bought one.

Laura · « **Reply #23 on:** January 02, 2025, 05:12:48 AM »

We really haven't gone out to eat much since 2020. Then my DH and I both began low-carb eating. So I've been cooking at home.

Laura · « **Reply #24 on:** January 02, 2025, 05:13:07 AM »

So I'm out of touch with prepared food prices.

I am aware that I do not employ a personal trainer.

Which is why I look like a cream puff.
