Update the update and buying this new computer. First I had it shipped to the store in St Louis. Did that on the advice of the person who took the order. The order stated to hold it for seven days. The folks at the store shipped it back the same day they got it. So I re ordered and had it shipped to someone I knew would be home. Got it. Long story, cant' hook it up. First thing I bought cost me $50+ to have shipped early. Didn't work. Second one ordered was supposed to show up Tue. It's Friday. Don't have it. Called Apple. Order didn't go threw because my bank screwed up the order by .43. The new part is supposed to be here Tomorrow. I also have an extension on the time to test it out.

What grinds my gears? Getting this new IMac has been a nightmare. Hoping for a good ending.

Supposed to get snow.  So it can make me more mud.
Maybe I will fix the slow water leak on the car.

Wishing the best for her.

My good news is I can pay the mortgage one more month.
I hate being adult.

Finally got home.  I have tomorrow off. 

So I'm resting.

Cause,  you forgot wireless peripherals also let you type and mouse from across the room even though you can not be sure of what was typed or clicked because the distance is so great.

Wireless is also a good way to leak info.  And be jammed out in difficult environments. Truth is,  wireless main selling point is supposedly no clutter from those pesky unruly wires.  People who think that way need to get a life.  If someone can't deal with a few cables they need therapy.    Oh and wireless needs batteries.  Take that eco freaks.  Your clean workstation with no wires and all wireless setup is worse for the environment than the wired one.

So as you can tell I love wires.

Plus work in a SCIF. No wireless allowed for all the reasons I mentioned.

Eevee might be able to go off her liver pills  after a few more tests as her liver is back to normal now.

My new Apple computer. The lightning connectors. And the idea that having a keyboard you have to keep charged because it's wireless. The adapter I got. An Apple adapter. Wont slide into any one of the ports. I'm gong to call Apple up tomorrow. Find out what I can do to have a corded keyboard. If there is no way to do this I'll take this box back. Then buy a Windows.
