Mum And Dad

Good lord, what a day. Well, my Mum and Dad came over because I am having serious meetings over the next few days. And we all went out for dinner with my Daughter, awwww, they were all pleased to see each other

Mouse

And last night I was fiddling with random stuff on my PC, I was having a look on the Control Panel and I noticed a link called 'Mouse' so a bit of fiddling there.... A) I switched off the "shadow" on the mouse and B) I switched on 'Display Pointer Trails' which makes it a lot more difficult to lose the mouse

Happy Chappy

U&AT

Well I woke up and got up at 7AM this morning..... Waiting now.....

Mañana

Gosh, I am a bit excited because tomorrow I am going out for dinner with my daughter and her grandfather

My Hoist

And this afternoon someone knocked on my door and said "Can I maintain your Hoist?" so I said yes. Even tho I have never used it they need to maintain it in case the next person to live here needs one.

Did it

Did my weeks shopping, couldn't find one item it turns out they have changed processor etc

Well

So I got up s'morning, going to't shop in a bit to buy this weeks groceries, hopefully storable items as my Dad is coming over and we will hopefully be eating out some

Nearly

And I was working in't kitchen earklier when suddenly I heard a loud bang. When a member of staff came to help I had to say "This pipes come off" luckily he was able to put it back before I tried to drain my sink

Tuesday

So my Dad is coming over on Tuesday because I have loadsa assessment meetings in the next few days, but every Tuesday Freya comes to visit. I talked to her on't phone today and told her, she said "Good, yes, great, we can all go out for dinner as long as I am back by 6pm"

Hallowe'en

So it's Samhain again now....

Watch

So as it's day shortening I had to get up, I reset the clock by my bed, the computer had done it automatically so that only left my watch. I read the instructions, there is analogue and digital. Luckily in my usual settings I can only see the analogue because I was able to set that right, dunno about digital but I usually can't see that so.....

Whoops

And I had a strange conversation along the lives of "It's tonight", "No, it's tomorrow", "No, it's tonight". So I checked online and he was right, the clocks are going back in a couple of hours

Wheeling

But since I was panicking over how many bits of camera there were I have been sat in my wheelchair. So I will walk tomorrow then

New Camera

So this morning I walked into my kitchen, I was opening the muesli &c when my phone rang. It was a deliverer chap, his SATNAV couldn't find this place. I told him as best I could. In 10 mins he phoned me back while I had an assistant, so I gave my phone to the worker and said "Tell him"

In the end the deliverer found here and delivered my new camera.

So phew I can work it pretty much already although I will have to read about video &c tonight

HAPPY CHAPPY

But when I had plugged it into my PC I couldn't find the power lead. I panicked for a minute then called a MOS. He looked in the boxes &c, couldn't find it. I said this was a new lead but it plugged my cam into my PC, he looked at it and said "This is your power lead too, and unplugged it from there, plugged it into the plug and it is now charging my battery

And I haven't paid for it yet!!!

And how powerful is it?

Patience

So, I got bored reading Dirk 'cos it's taking me too long, I only read for half an hour each day and it is going to take me months. So I bought a new book, a series of quicker reads

More Lord

Gosh. That Toby chap seemed better, clearer thinking, more together and disrespectable himself than I have seen him for 7½ years.

AND he seems to be getting on well with his new school, predicted 2 A's at O-level (GCSE)
