afternoon

Got a new computer for work.  My laptop has been stellar for five years but it's a *touch* out of date.  Got a desktop.  So far, the hardware is great.

However, forgive the rant:
Microsoft sucks & OneDrive can blow me.   

I'll be at this for maybe a week.
F*ck.  Oh well, once every five years ain't bad.

I would not want to be that intimate with either of them.  Even more so Google.

I'm also switching as much email traffic away from the googs as possible.

In my opinion...it's waaaaaayyyy too late.

I'd rather Google than Donnie D.

Awake at 0500 again. Took the dog out at 0600. She got distracted by wildlife and did not go potty. We will go out again in a bit. She does not like it when it's this cold.

I had some catching up to do out here.  IoM TT is a bucket list trip.  Envious, Steve!!!   That's awesome!
My understanding is cyclists can ride the course before the real racing starts... ?

Not sure why the Duck Stews were in London but glad you made it back safely. (Hi Ro!)

Hey Carlos.

Sorry about the Aunt, Randimus.

Had the day off today.  Contacted the local shelter 2 weeks ago to see if I could spend the day there to volunteer but they said:  take a dog instead.  So a day of helping out has turned into two weeks of a dog at home.  And of course all have separation anxiety so I'm getting nothing done.  (But that's not terrible.)

On Friday, I was given another (my 3rd) stray pitbull, this one going through heartworm treatment. Had him in my house an hour and brought him back before the shelter closed.  He was going to seriously hurt me.  The other two were wild but I never feared them.  This one was not wired right.  Poor guy.  Humans are so cruel.


I now have a 5 y/0, 13 lb chihuahua/cocker spaniel(?) mix whose family gave her up.  She's so confused and shut down.   Today, she intentionally touched my leg with her paws and laid next to me. (Heart melt.) AND she got the zoomies for about 30 seconds this eve.  Saturday, when I picked her up, you couldn't look at her w/o her cowering.   

Rat told me once out here when I had a foster forever ago who was so emaciated and dying, to get rotisserie chicken.  I've never forgotten that and rely on a chicken nearly every time for the starving, shut down pups and kittens.  Thanks Rat. 

Will look into changing work travel already booked to possibly get to DIMBY for a day....  Wish me luck.

Stay warm all!
