If you had thought there was another entry here, you were correct. I made it private. If you missed it, it was another I-hate-my-life-as-it-is-now entry. There is nothing to be gained by complaining in public. Although I do appreciate the notes of the people who found it before it was banished into exterior darkness!

A total change of subject. I mentioned a while ago that I had finally got someone to replace my router and that everything was running well, right? The guy that did this said give him a call in a week or so if I was happy with it and he would  give me a bill. So, I called him and left two messages all at different times. Yesterday, I got really irritated and my message basically said that if he didn’t want me to pay him, that was fine with me but I needed someone to come and put a password on this router because I had a feeling that everyone on the street and people driving by were using my signal! {Of course, I was exaggerating just a bit!}  Anyway, someone, not the original guy who is actually the owner of the business, I think, came round yesterday and not only put the password into use, but made sure all the computers and the Kindle Fire, could find the connection. Oh, and he brought a bill which I paid. One thing that I had noticed was that it took forever to load a movie onto the Fire before I had a password put on it. Now, loading a movie is almost instantaneous…

One way in which the Fire is different from the Kindle I use for reading is that the Fire screen is back lighted. I really didn’t think it could be true that to read from a back lighted screen was more tiring than reading from a non-back lighted screen but, at least for me, it is definitely true. When I read on the Fire, my vision gets blurry very quickly. One thing I am enjoying about the Fire is that there are a huge number of movies I can download from Amazon free since I am a Prime member. A day or so ago I watched "Fahrenheit 451" and last night I started watching "Babe." I am intensely irritated by the commercials when I am watching movies on television so it is nice to be able to see these on the Fire. And if it is something I feel I want to buy, I can also buy them!

I am tired. It seems these days I am always tired. Fred is feeling worried and "down" these last few days and am letting myself be dragged down by his feelings…
