just to say i'm back in circulation, and will need several days to catch up on what i could not do at public library in 1-2 hrs. max daily!!
if i owe anyone emails, i'll get to them as i plod away at my accumulation hugs/kisses
but i got my 4" of reading caught up/threw away outdated stuff but still have PJ LANGHOFF'S THE BAKER'S DOZEN, 2/3 left to read!!
so it was a blessing in disguise and got alot of mended clothes hemmed while watching tv huge smile on my face ....

Whew! Thats relief.
Do you have one of those magnifying glass things
you can hang around your neck? I am going to check
in to one. My readers just make me sick.

howdy pinelady
no, i don't have a magnifier around my neck! but wished i would have looked into that before i bought a 3X hand magnifier from the iowa dept. of blind to read pj's book!
it's not working as i hoped it would; can't use it at night; TOO MUCH GLARE/LIGHTS showing up in it!
so will have to experiment to see what will work the best so i can finish reading pj's book.

Welcome back to the computer world, betty!
I was just thinking how I would never, ever have been able to do the research and discover I had lyme, if it were not for the internet.
What did we ever do without it???
I know....we suffered for years and just believed what our Dr's told us.
Glad you are back with us like usual!!!!!

thx dekrator
would you believe i've just encountered MORE of what i took my pc in for???
blue screen popping up with 5-6 sets of numbers about dumping files,
screen going to sleep;
now some other unusual stuff; barely was able to get pc up now after unplugging it 3 times!
needless to say, i'm taking it back tomorrow to be worked on more! this is ridiculous.
so glad i bought a 3 yr. service plan on it; would have cost $211 to get it repaired statement said!
yes, we have gotten really spoiled! i couldn't wait for the QUIET ENVIRONMENT after noisey public library and unrurly teens.
