My computer guy was here on Friday. When I first got my desktop he partitioned the very large hard drive into two drives with one large part for data storage etc. I was never happy with that and now have ended up with insufficient room. He is working on giving me more space on the C drive part of the disk. Anyway we were talking about when DOS became Windows 3 and how much I had hated it. I commented he was probably in diapers when that happened, he laughed and

I also prepared the Brussels Sprouts and Matt did the potatoes, I had changed my mind about doing roast potatoes. Eventually the turkey breast was put into its plastic bag and then into the oven and everything came together fine.
With it we drank a Pinot Grigio which was not the best I had ever tasted, the vintner was The Big House Birdman. Not sure why Matt chose it, but I wasn’t impressed. We followed the meal with some carrot cake, a tiny piece for me. Sorry I don’t like pumpkin pie. I love Pecan pie but the calories would be murderous. If you haven’t had your Thanksgiving celebration yet, I hope it’s a good one.
Today, of course, is Thanksgiving Day and we are off bowling this afternoon. I don’t know how many of the league will be there, but a number of us are planning to turn up.
I thought these were a good idea, particularly for a crowd. This was from Cooking.com

ReplyDeleteComputers don't take math as much as a willingness to jump in and start learning. It changes fast, so it's always a process.
Not any more they don't Alex, but 35 years or so ago they needed math. I don't think you were very old then either.
DeleteI have no desire to learn about computers but I wish I were self-sufficient. I hate having to depend on other people. But I've accepted that I can't be good at everything and I'd rather write and let someone else figure the rest out for me!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving!
I would love to know more. But I can understand you would rather concentrate on your writing.
