Good 54º somewhat clear but still smokey morning. Hit 94º by 3pm yesterday.
Smoke stayed away til about noon, but then it came back in the valley like gang
busters!
Let me share with you a computer thing... I have Windows 8.1 on mine and
Windows 10 is now available free as an upgrade. I downloaded it and for two days
had nothing but TROUBLE. My mouse, keyboard, and several other things would not
work correctly. Also it kept dumping AOL, CONSTANTLY! Cutting and pasting
anything to an email in progress would shut AOL down immediately!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR..................... I went to the control panel and had
Windows 10 taken out and my old Windows 8.1 reinstalled.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........working good now! Don't do it.
Also, two
years ago Dude came to live with us. He and Maggie:
She passed
away 18 days later. I miss her every single day! Blessed to have Dude
though~!
Breakfast: Low fat yogurt, fresh pineapple, banana, and some of Laney
Blueberry Blossom honey....Mmmmmmmm!
First thing I headed into Rogue River.. post office to mail letter, bank to
make deposit, Ace for cracked corn for the birds, and Rays for chicken thighs
for Dude. I had purchased a gift card at Subway for a pal and when you do that
you get a free 6" sandwich. I stopped yesterday to get mine.... meatballs,
marinara sauce, pepper jack cheese, and tomatoes on a jalapeño cheese roll.
OMG!!! See, no chips, just carrot chips!
AWESOME!!! I HAVE got to have another one of those!!!!!
