I really enjoy writing Blogs. I don't even need 'comments'. But I'd really love to know if ANYONE actually reads them here!!   Even a one-word comment: like 'nice", etc. would do. 

I'm considering trying somewhere else to write my blogs. 

Today, I finished the final 'folder' in my Graphics collection. It was TV Shows. And the last subfolder was: Stargate. That reminded me that I haven't watched Stargate: Atlantis in some time. Actually, that was right after my daughter gifted me the entire series! Maybe 2-3 years ago. 

So I decided it was time to rewatch it. I'm watching the two-part beginning right now. I love this series. 

I just saw a posting at FB about 'local bands' in the St, Louis area. I immediately thought of the one at my high school in the mid 60's. Boy, does that take me back!  I really hadn't thought about them in many years; but now I have to wonder what happened to the guys in that band. I'm sure none of them went on to be professionals, but have to wonder what they all ended up doing.  Here is the photo from that article:…

   For the last few days, I've noticed that my laptop 'freezes' at times. At first, I thought it was the 'game' I was playing, but then it happened when I was playing Solitaire--the one that comes with all Windows computers.  It was happening frequently, which worried me. 

   So, since it's been 18 months since I did a Reset on this 6-year-old laptop, I thought maybe that's what it needed.  My other option was to ask my computer guru to look at it, to see if they could see what the…

 A few days ago, I decided to clear out my huge graphics folder. When I had pages at another site, I used a lot of graphics. I had 'theme pages': everything from my favorite tv shows to my favorite colors, etc.  My Graphics folder, even after a bit of weeding, was still 20.2 GB.  Within two days, that 'huge' folder was down to 9GB! And there's still almost 50 folders to go through. I'm sure most of those are Duplicates, so...I don't expect to keep many…

Am I the only one who notices that there are 'new' drug names almost daily??  Some of them are so far out, ridiculous that it sounds like teenagers are naming them. Not to mention, if they'd stop all the TV advertising, they could cut prices! I just saw another one: Fasenra.  I don't know about everyone else, but 'I' don't tell my doctor which meds I'd like to try! I think my doctors are much more capable of choosing which one fits my symptoms.  Out of my 6…

I've been trying to 'organize' lately.  I realized I have a total of 9 email addresses: 1 ATT.net, 4 Gmail & 4 Outlook. There are a number of reasons for this.  I'd like to 'downsize', but for now I need 3 for different web pages. Since Gmail no longer notifies you of comments/messages on social sites, I had to switch to Outlook.com for those. And I 'like' Gmail for other things. I might be able to get rid of 2 Gmail; but we'll see. As soon as I get the new option in Gmail of 'changing'…
