1.  Fresh NEW install (done by Microsoft)...

 

2.  I didn't  do anything except wait for it to complete...

 

3.  I have been tinkering with it for the past 21 hours.   Yes, I have been up since YESTERDAY!

 

There were a LOT of "little things" I had to do manually...like re-pin ALL my icons...search for websites that "went missing"... (like my bank accounts...PANIC). 

 

Also had to figure out the new layout...such as WHERE is my homepage...how do I even restart this thing, etc.    

 

It was like my first day in school, WITHOUT A TEACHER...and I am exhausted.    More like brain-dead.

 

The cake is a three-layer carrot cake!    (One of those "smaller" ones that look like it was baked in a Crisco can.)

 

I am sure I will feel better tomorrow...but I still wonder "Was all this really necessary"????  di


After reading all these horror stories, I will keep what I have for the rest of my life. It's fine. It does everything I ask of it. And I don't even know what I've got.

I am NOT "tech savvy"...and this nearly gave me a nervous breakdown.

 

It took me 3 hours just to get my local temperature back on the screen!!!

 

I just finished a piece of cake I had for EMERGENCIES...and now I'm headed to Kroger for a WHOLE CAKE...


Thanks for the morning giggle.
