Frost!
For the past two mornings, I have awakened to 31-degree temperatures. I am so NOT READY for frost on my everything! I have stopped feeding the fish, as the water has been below 50. I checked the water around noon and it was only up to 40. I am supposed to stop when it stays below 50, which I did, although it is tempting to give them just a little.
This past Friday and Saturday we had our garage sale. We did OK, although Sat was surprisingly quiet. I sold one of my bear photos, which I am happy about and we made some business contacts – always a cool thing. It’s a great way to meet your neighbors. Around here, it seems to be the only way! One of our friends helped us and to say thanks, I gave her a beach photo, which she admired. It was a sunset picture I took eons ago on a vacation at Cape May.
I was looking to sell my old computer, but there were no takers. I may take it to the E-Bay store. It’s the only PC we have left with a floppy drive. I had some old digital photos, taken with a camera that wrote to the floppy (forerunner to those that write to a CD), so I spent some time transferring them to a flash drive and will then transfer them to my PC. I can see that the quality is nowhere near to what I can get now, but I mostly transferred dog and sunset photos.
Yesterday we had a product preview at a new distributor’s house and had a great turnout. By last evening, I was very ready for my massage, and then I went to be early, as I was exhausted. I did not have any real downtime this weekend.
Ho Hum Monday here. Have a great week.
You bet.

Maybe you should keep that computer with the floppy drive, and then if anyone has floppys that they can’t read because they have no way to do so, you could charge a fee and make some extra money!!! Hugs!!!

Thanks, you too. Craig’s List is a good place to sell things as well, with no selling cost. I love the first frost, but after that, it’s all down hill. I’d be a snowbird, heading south for the winter every January if I could do it.

hi there, last month, they had one of those mega-recycling events at the city center, and we brought them 5 old dead machines. i had stripped out the hard drives before that. I think we still have some machines that can read a 5″ floppy, but maybe not. if we don’t, I guess I could dump all those boxes of old floppies… 😉 Maybe then we’d be “floppy-less” (pun intended). On the reincarnation stuff: that is cool. I think the problem I have with “supreme being” is that that phrase has several connotations for me that I don’t like: I prefer to think of things as Nature with a capital “N”. Nature doesn’t have emotions, or desires. Things work well, or they don’t, or this works better than that. There’s no emotion involved. Nature wasn’t “mad” at us when we got the dust bowl storms of the 30’s (just saw a documentary on that Sunday morning on History channel – awesome), the storms just happened. Perhaps because of what we did before, but it’s not like what we did made Nature “angry”. I believe more in the “Oneness”, more like a Taoist concept, than a Supreme Being. Actions can be in harmony with the Oneness, or in disharmony with the Oneness, and we’re all

part of and within the Oneness, and it’s naturally within us. So, I guess we’re pretty close. Not sure why I get hung up on certain terms…. I think it’s because so many folks would just love to tell me (and you and …) what God wants and likes and dislikes. sigh. Palin said she favors a national constitution ban on same-sex marriages. and that lady congressman from wisconsin wantsan investigation into “anti-american” members of congress (read = democrats). sad take care
