Red and black sexy...

I have been trying to declutter this house for the last few days. I found a ton of my "first" manuscripts...throw away or not? They are just extra paper, stacking up and just in the way, for now. I have most of them, if not all of them on disk and backed up on drives...

On top of that, I just found a pair of Red and black sexy thong underwear and two diamond studs. What's going here? I guess I should keep looking (decluttering), this house, and see what else I can find.

Bats, bats, everywhere...

Here's something you don't see every -- night. Early this morning, Tom, my crazy cat, was going nuts and kept running to the window and trying to get through the blinds. Something outside was causing him to flip out and destroy my blinds to find out what was going on, outside. I raised the blinds and he jumped on the ledge and as I looked up I saw as many as five or six things fly by. Silent as they flew by they happen to be bats. This went on for 10 more minutes. I have been meaning to put a bat house in my backyard for the last few years maybe I should start and get that house built, now."

I gotta be losing my mind...

I've really got to quit drinking...I was making a veggie burger. I put the pattie in the microwave to heat it up. I got the bread, pasted it with mayo (with olive oil), sliced a tomato, I put a slice of Swiss cheese, a slice of onion, mushrooms, and a blanket of spinach onto one slice of bread. 
I then assembled the sandwich but couldn't find the plate to put the sandwich on, which had the veggie pattie on it. Then I realized that I had forgotten to take the veggie pattie out of the microwave and put the veggie pattie in between the bread with all the other goodies. 
I am beginning to think it's not the drinking(coffee) but I am just losing my mind! Old age must be catching up with me. I need to play more games that stretch my mind! Or quit drinking!!

Something new...scary!

"I learned something new yesterday: I have been trying to get my Lane Keeping system to work. (I should read the manual, if you know what I mean). I found a little button on the stalk of my turn signal, so I clicked it on. And the Lane keeping System came on...yaaaaaa!

As I was moving into another lane, I kind of forgot about the system, I started moving and the steering wheel kind of locked up, it wouldn't let me move to the next lane. That scared the heck out me, driving at 70 mph! I thought it was supposed to beep, or buzz or something, but lock the steering wheel? Geez...#FoMoCo #Ford #Escape

Sound or no sound...Eh, what was the question?

"I think I am losing my mind or I am drinking too...Anyway, the power is out so I set up the generator to power a couple of things, like this computer. I turned it on and noticed that there was no sound. I messed around with it trying to turn the sound back on. I even went to my guest page and see if it was working there. Nothing, no sound.
 Because it, the computer, was turned off improperly, I figured that maybe the sound driver was lost.
So, I was going to find the reset, restore point and go back earlier today and see if that was going to work.
I stood up to close the blinds, because the sun was blaring in the window and noticed that the external speakers were not on. I then noticed that the speakers were not plugged into the cord from the generator. Needless to say, I unplugged the speaker, took it out of the computer and of course there be SOUND! I gotta stop drinking or start eating more brain food. GEEZ..."

Echo Dot, do you hear me now?


Fred Green: "I guess I should give up drinking: I have an Alexa Echo Dot in my kitchen and two others around the house. The wake word is "Computer" for the two others, and Alexa for the Kitchen Dot. I went into the kitchen and wanted to turn on the coffee-maker, I yelled, "Computer, brew coffee." nothing happened, so I went over to it and yelled into the darn thing, "brew coffee".

Nothing. I proceed to unplug it, then plug it back in, gave it a command, nothing. I was thinking it was going deaf and I was going to write a review on Amazon and tell them this thing died after 3 months.
I had to push the button to turn on the coffee pot and turn on the light in the kitchen. A couple hours later I realized that I was supposed to say, "Alexa, brew coffee". I kept saying "Computer" and of course it ignored me. I really gotta quit drinking..."
