Good Morning, Alain, Knightman & Doctor Toon.

Well, I think I’ll take that cheeto and run. Gotta be on the move shortly.

I’ll have a western omelet and DWFNC, thanks Alain.

What new games will there be?

morning tribe and allhappy, busy, by!leave it to a dog to find crumbs…

Good morning noicantspell – Have a great day!

Good Morning, Sojo, noicnatspell, Grog, Knightman, Alain, Doc, and All Who Are to Come.

Gotta pack up the ole hotel and mosey on up the interstate. Wave back when we pass your off ramp………..:))))

Good morning Montana Lady – Have a safe and good trip!

Hi, friends! I’m reminded of this joke…What does a redneck divorce and a tornado have in common?

In both cases, someone is gonna’ lose a trailer! Pete’s trailer looks like some of the trailers which got hit by the recent tornadoes in KS.

Good morning TRIBE Is it just me or does the strip seem kind of sad today?

Good morning Rmom – LOL

Good Morning serena – At least it’s just a comic strip.

Rmom – At least I can reset everthing and keep all of my data if I need to but it might take a few days. I think it would be better to build a more powerful desktop and get all of my data on it. Some programs push the limits of this laptop. I could then reset the laptop without having to be sure I get all the data back on it and just use it for simpler things. I hope everything is going fine on your end.

I’ve been keeping busy, seems like there’s always something I should be doing here. I hope my tomato plants survived the cold weather a couple nights ago, I hear it is supposed to get hot today, or at least up in the 80’s. We’ve got a leak under the kitchen, and the plumber won’t be able to get here until Thursday or Friday. (Not a big company, he’s an old friend who owns his own business.) Our guess is that it is the drain line that is leaking, so I’m having to dump our water in the bathroom drains in the meantime. Which means not using the dishwasher! I washed up a bunch last night, but we’re going to be using disposables for as much as possible from here on out until the leak is fixed.

Rmom – I use Carbonite to back up all of my data on line. I also have a disk image of my drive but it’s old as I didn’t have space to make a new one without deleating it. I think I’ll get some more external drives so I can keep a disk image of my computer off site. I hope your tomato plants are okay and you don’t run into trouble getting the leak fixed.

Good morning, all!

(esp.: SR Mom & Sojo)!

We also had a viral infection, but I think we deleted them. Thanks to our Malwarebytes for isolating them…

Hello bmonk – Time for my lunch.
