Yes, I missed the break room this morning! Had to run hubby over to the ER for some tests. He has been dizzy a couple of times in the middle of the night and fell Sunday night. Turned out to be the same thing as a few years ago - vertigo from an inner ear infection he didn't know he had. Of course, they ruled out stroke, heart attack and all the other nasty things first. At least he got his first round of back injections on board yesterday morning!
So, I guess I'll head out to do a few hours of mowing. Nice warm day for it.
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Good afternoon everyone; so today is the last day of April & surprise surprise, I woke up to a snow storm, it seems like winter doesn't want to leave.
A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

Good afternoon, everyone.
I had a busy day running around. and then realized I was starving., looked around for a a restaurant in Qualicum Beach and wouldn't you know it, but Tuesday most places are closed. Don't ask me why. It's just weird. And then I discovered that the same is true in Parksville. I guess I just don't go out enough. The pubs are open, though, so I might head out to my usual brew pub for dinner instead.
I was going to get outside and do some planting but it wasn't in the cards after the fruitless search for food. I'll have to be happy with a cup of tea on the patio and a hope that it's nice tomorrow.
Judith, it seems awfully unfair that you've got snow. Very occasionally we have snow in April but normally by now we're in Spring.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Just grabbing a cup of coffee on my way out the door. Heading down to the Ranch for a school tour. I think it's Woerther Elementary which is a huge tour with lots of fairly well behaved kids. There are some schools that come out and we just cringe because both the kids and the parents are a PITA!

I seem to be having very bad luck. Not only are both computers mostly out of commission, I'm trying to fill out the online for for property tax deferment and it won't accept the information the BC government sent me. That's going to mean two or three hours on hold -- if I don't get disconnected!
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I did manage to get the Deferment form done, thanks. Now I'm sending my laptop to Dell for a new fan and tuneup. Tomorrow I'll tackle the other laptop. In the meantime I need to work out how to get my tablet to talk to my printer. Ain't technology grand?

Congrats to success Hagatha. I keep my fingers crossed for your laptops. I'm sure you'll handle them well. Printers on the other hand tend to be pretty naughty. Over here Mrs. Sun made yet an appearance, which is nice. Ms. Cloud arrived too. Mr. Rain is enjoying a vacation elsewhere. I'll make some Fairly-Weak-Wake-Up-Brew for emergency use until the real stuff arrives. It contains virtual caffeine. Happy Thursday Gameboomers

My view is that as with many things in life, technology is to be relished when it works with you and tolerated patiently when it fails to do so...! (I still recall keeping the old typewriters available in an office for quite a long time after we first became computerised, just in case of glitches, and even a few manual ones in case of power cuts)

Good morning Connie Lex Gerry Hagatha Fogfighter Draclvr Judith OldBroad and everyone else who pops in. The coffee and bagels are great. Have fun at CVI Connie. Lex, I kept my manual typewriter for the longest time. Hagatha happy to hear your deferment process successfully completed. Fogfighter, the emergency new guy the spot this morning. Glad to hear yesterday's visitors were good to work with Draclvr...believe I'd get the PITA folks experience with cleaning the stalls. Have a wonderful Thursday 😊

Good morning everyone. It's sunny but cold, not yet time to turn off the furnace for the year. If it stays sunny I'll be able to spray my weed patches with vinegar and maybe get a few more Creeping Thymes planted.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Gerry, how did you know I could use a cup of DDWA brew early in the afternoon! Missed the break room this morning as I had to get up early to take hubby to the doctor for a scheduled eye injection. After the injection, he is "blink as a bat" as he says! It sounds awful, but he says you can't feel it at all. It's for his macular degeneration and he would have been completely blind in this eye several years ago without the treatments.
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.
