I've been doing maintenance on my computers this morning, got my network running

with the printers, updated the desktop, my husband uses it, and whenever an

update comes up he says "remind me later" and wonders why the computer is

slowing down,lol.

A thankless job Earline that has to be done.    I try to do my as I go along.   

On the week-ends I usually clean out all the old document files and run scan

disk and system scan.   Inbetween - during the week, I try to run crap cleaner a

few times along with registry repair pro - adaware and spy bot.  I Especially

run registry repair pro after any downloads.



Sheri



My sympathy to you with your alergy.   My Granddaughter and Great Granddaughter

have alergy problems, and they are running to the doctor all the time.   We (me)

have to be thankful for what we have or better yet - what we don't have.    I

hope you are feeling better soon.



We had some good thunderbumpers this afternoon and more of the much needed rain.

It is now hot and humid - a sign that summer is right around the corner.    Real

sticky today.

Norma, Adaware and Spybot aren't compatible, I had both of the programs on the

desktop, but I only had one installed at a time. I use McAfee Antivirus and

Personal Firewall, and Spysweeper for adware and spyware on all computers, I pay

for a yearly subscription to MSN Premium and it is included. It's easier than

paying separately for everything and having to worry about expiration dates. If

one expires, I just go to MSN and download the new one.

It's going to 62 this afternoon, maybe I'll venture outside later.

Hibernation is almost over, lol.

Anyone have any April Fools pranks played on them? Besides the virus?

I guess that is one of the reasons why I haven't worried about switchig over to

Zone alarm - I have been very pleased with windows firewall.

36 with a high of 50 today

I started spring cleaning this week, I want to paint the livingroom this spring.

The house needs painting desperately too, but that's not my department.

Our Clownfish died yesterday, she was at least 13 years old. Now we only have a

blennie and two 1/2" hermit crabs in a 80 gallon aquarium. I'm thinking of

moving it downstairs, there's not much to look at now, the blennie lives under

the rocks and only comes out to eat and it takes up too much space, not to

mention that I have to replace the drywall behind it because of the salt.

Norma, I would if I could, I can't even give it away. I figure it will be less

work downstairs, we filter the water down there and my husband has to carry it

upstairs in 5 gal. bottles. We've got the game room downstairs and the floor is

more level too.

Thats too bad, they are so expensive to purchase when they are new, but you do

have to have the interest.

34 going to mid-40's

We're going to get snow tomorrow, only 1-2 inches I hope, if the storm tracks

much further south, we'll be in the 3-6" area.

The only good thing about all the snow this winter is that the lake levels are

getting back up to near normal, they've been low for over a decade.

Sheri, I think that I'm going to start doing that later in the week. I have to

get my basement straightened up first. The paint has all come up from the minor

flood that we had a couple of weeks ago. It didn't get into the carpeted room at

least, but we had shelves made of particle board that got wet down there, so we

are replacing them with a new pantry cupboard, but we'll have to put planks

under it because it is particle board too. Isn't anything made of wood anymore?

Nice house, Norma!  Is there a story attached to it?  Is it a family place?



My allergies are really bad today.  So bad you can see it!



We're now under a Tornado watch.  Yippee!

As a matter of fact, there is.   My sister's, son-in-law's parents own and live

in it.   It is located somewhere near Roanoke, Virginia in the Southern part of

the State near the Blue Ridge Mountains.  On the mantle over one of the

fireplaces, it had the word Ramsey enbeded.   I did a study of the Ramsey family

and found them to be early settlers of the area.   The original home burned in

the mid 1800's and this one was built around 1880 (I think)  by one of the sons

of the original Ramsey. (will have to check my notes) I'll put something up on

it later under a seperate topic.

My sister goes there once a year for a vacation with her daughter and

son=-in-law.   She says they eat in a different dinning room every evening on

different china.   Lot of rooms for guests.



Earline  - more snow????   Easter is getting closer - the end should be near.   

Good wood costs an arm and a leg.  Particle board is a great substitute if you

keep it dry. As you found out - a good base under it will do the trick.
