This will be so nice Dave...to have your own pc to use again.
Adobe has just announced that it will not sell the Photoshop versions anymore...
they are going to CC...Creative Cloud...
they want us to rent that program for $20-$50. per month, we will never own it...
perks are you get new tools, etc automatically...
that is just tooooo much money for me and many folks.

I may put my element 9 back on my pc...that is my most current elements...
and I have CS5.

Yes Shirley, it feels really good to have it back 'up and running'
I have the CD/DVD ROM and the CD/DVD RW installed now
and the Floppy Disk Seek is now disabled
with the Boot Order set, to C:\, CD/DVD ROM, USB Flash Drive

"Money Makers", the world is full of them
As a note on the matter of 'cloud cost'
Windows Live Skydrive has added tools [for free] to users
that enable them to edit image files, even though, they don't own the software
[I will post links to information, when I come across them again]

Soon I will have-to consider installing and using Open Source Operating System
[in or after April, or May, next year]
just to continue being able to get online
Unless I receive a 'windfall'.
This, because there is no way that I can save anything of my pension toward an OS upgrade




Got some blood work done this am...
and I will be seeing a new dr for my phyisical soon.

Our weather is calm and warming for the weekend...
we do have fires in the southland...not close, but I don't like any of the fires for any of us.



Prayer: for good blood results and, an uplifting outcome to your exam
:amen:




Thanks Gail, it will take a few days for the tests to get to the dr...
I will set up an appt...next week.
I had a lot of blood test done in Feb when I had pneumonia...hope I am still ok.


The techi was very good with the needle this morning...that is always nice.

I must commend the nurses and nursing sisters, at the hospital and the health centre
that have blessed my arms with sharps
The 'care', with which they extracted five/six vials [per-session] was nothing-short of 'angelic'
Back in Bristol, was another story altogether [on several occasions]
there, I have experienced two 'complete misses' and a 'right-through'
which provided me with an arm-wide 'bruise', in the pit of my elbow


A CF member answered my questions and I reinstalled Firefox...
no issues so far :thumbsup:

I used to do venipunctures when I was a visiting nurse.
Nothing bothers me more than to see someone all bruised and sore :eek:
Hubby was butchered one time;
he was a mess for almost 2 weeks from the blessing into his arm tissues :doh:
I had a good touch I must say :D

:angel: :thumbsup: :hug:

I have had my share of bad "jabs"...if I know the techs, I will wait for one I like.
Good for you Gail...you were a good one. ((((hugs)))).

The gal yesterday used a tiny needle with the little tube connected to it and she drew several viles of blood that way. She did it in my more difficult arm too...I told her she was good, because she was...

I have been having a problem here in GE this last two days
~when I go to Index page and 'select' to go to 'Last Page' [most recent] of a thread
I am taken to PAGE 10
and find ,I must advance one or two pages at a time, to get to the LAST PAGE

This, is 'a trial' [let me tell you] :doh: especially in some of the older threads

I will stay a while longer ~for the most pressing of threads
but this is a real struggle ... I am using Firefox.... [really strange] :scratch:

I got Gracie out for a walk, just in time, the day is heating up here...feel like I need a nap already...and it is just 10am here.
It was too hot to walk here again today...though the wind is kicking up so it helps a wee bit :p
I just took Penny down the driveway to the road to get the mail.

My veins are very clear to see and the largest can also be palpated

Those MISS-Happenings were the result of "FAULTY 3D MATH" ~no sense of depth

After two misses, I called a halt to further 'stabs'
and requested someone else to complete the task

The 'straight through' happened, back before, I was put on Aspirin
or else, it might have made a far worse mess :doh:


Whatever it was, redirected me to Page 10 of each thread
after I selected Last-Page, appears now, to have been remedied :thumbsup:


:wave:

I have a 'pipe line' in my dominant arm, so I always make sure to point it out.
Even so.....occasionally they mess up :doh:

Yeah, you would have had one heck of a bruise Dave :eek:

Happy to hear your 'bug' has flown away :thumbsup:

People who use this kind of needle are more sensitive to their patient's comfort I think...every time i get blood drawn this way it is very easy.

For sure!!! It IS 'our body' ... Shirley Sis'
~on the street, it would be called 'assault'

I give thanks that it "went away"
It was, beyond boring to see-similar, at every thread

"one step at a time" ^_^

:D
