Sunday Ramblings

 

We are home now and both very tired. I was going to download some of the things that couldn't be transferred to this laptop, but I think I might just wait until I am less likely to make an error. I will however probably begin to add in last months budget items. 

I am going to have to get used to visiting the cloud for pictures and such.... Now that is something that is confusing to me. Kris says to just pretend it is my second computer. Hmmmm, not sure I will ever get used to it at all as it seems some things did not get downloaded onto this laptop from the old. I just might be pulling my hair out eventually.

I also need to get used to a smaller keyboard (not as small as the phone) and a smaller screen. What sold me on this Lenovo was the card reader. I will also be putting my old USB Hub to work (or at least I hope to do so. I am going to see if it will work with my mouse first and then move on from there. I also like the sound quality and the fact that I can plug in my phone and download the pictures straight from there. It has a plug in for that as well.

Harvey says he wants to get me a larger monitor to plug in the HDMI slot as well. Not too sure if that will keep me from gazing at the smaller screen while typing. 

These are all first world problems and I am sure I am up to the task of learning all that I can about this machine and how to get it to do exactly what I want.

Got to go and get supper started, but I hope to make a visit to each of you tonight.


Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

  1. I'm happy you are up & running, and I'm sure you will be when all the set up is done, and you can settle in and catch up. Everything is so technical isn't it? But it helps us to do this bloggy thing. :)

  2. Glad to hear you were able to get most everything done with the new laptop. I know my computer looks to the cloud, but I've also saved things to the computer itself and then to an external hard drive. I've never had to go looking for the cloud, it is just there...heaven help me if I ever have to search for it. :)

  3. New computers are always a huge learning curve it seems. I am looking at my current keyboard and thinking that it's soon due to be replaced but I'm dreading it. I hear that it's good for our brain to learn new things so maybe it will help to look at it in that vein.
