Greetings
Greetings from the sewing studio of Grammie on her new Dell laptop. What a learning curve!
I may have already clicked on something I should not have. Well maybe one or two. When I set up the wireless mouse the prompt came up either right or left. I thought it was either to the right or the left of the laptop itself. I chose right. Dah! I went up to the living room to see what I had loaded on the HP for photo resizing. The mouse for the HP had been converted to the right click as well. That being said, I may have clicked on something that did tie the two units together for some things but not all. Not that big of a deal. Got that little detail fixed.
I do have Google Chrome downloaded as my default. As yet the resizing of photos needs a bit of tweaking to get the photos to the size that the blog is happy with. Not everything in one day. My next step is to go into the control panel and disable the touch pad. Right now in doing this blog, my thumb grazes the touch pad and the screen does its own thing.
I am also cutting fabric into 2.5″ strips for my Log Cabin projects. They do sell what they call jelly rolls that are already cut into 2.5″ strips. Within the roll is a variety of fabrics that blend well. I have done my own blending and I will get the cutting done as well just not all at one time. I was so close to not having enough yardage of one of the chosen, that I couldn’t cut it at 2 and 4/8ths, I had to cut it at 2 and 3/8ths. Got it done.
Grandson AJ was here for the morning. Dennis is one happy camper for television viewing. AJ put an antenna up on the east side of the garage. Dennis now has choices of the REA tower or his Samsung smart TV.
Last week the walking crutches came from good old Amazon. Today, AJ adjusted the height for me. From the first few steps I could feel getting equal pull on the back, hips and knees with each step. Stauffer Avenue look out. It is a tad muddy as we have gotten rain yesterday and today, but these walking crutches will make walking for a distance more enjoyable.
AJ also carried my teak rocker from the studio into the living room. The chair that has been my go-to place after supper has no support left for the cheeks or the back. Near as Dennis can recall, that chair was new in 1980. I am content in the rocker. My choice for reading is in my bedroom where I have natural light from three sides and I have a good chair for that. I spend little time watching TV.
So much contentment on Stauffer, the sweetest spot ever.
