For the casula user of the internet, all these updates and changes are getting to be a real nuisance. Every time I turn around, there is an update for WordPress or for Firefox or for some other program that I need to use every day. The WordPress updates are the hardes tones for me to deal with. I have to get my system administrator to take of that chore for me and every time he does anything for me or my blog it costs me money.
I was hoping to play some games on the internet tonight, but it looks like we are having some bad storms coming this way. Any time we have thunder and lightning, I turn off the computer and unplug it so that it won’t get zapped. I lost two computers to lightning strikes already and I’m not wanting to go through that again.
Sometimes when I am on the computer for several hours at a time, I like to listen to streaming audio over the internet. A friends told me a bout a web site called Pandora. It’s free for about 40 hours worth of listening each month. After 40 hours you have to pay them a fee or find another way to listen to music while you work. For my work habits, I can use up that 40 hours pretty quick, so I have other sites I can use. But I do like the way Pandora works for the first week or so of each month.
Now even my wife is complaining about the weather. She usually likes fall but this year, summer seemed to slip right by us and we didn’t really have a summer like we usually do. Normally, we would take two or even three vacations though the summer but this year, I really don’t know what happened. She’s been talking about wanting to take one of the Sharm El Sheikh Holidays that she found online. I have to be honest, it sounds wonderful to me too. The question I have is about the weather?
I personally would love to check out Algarve Holidays in Portugal. I’m sure the weather there would be great since the southern hemisphere has spring when we have fall. Besides, we have already been to Egypt but never to Portugal. From what I have seen, it’s an absolutely beautiful place and why go somewhere you’ve already been? Why not try something new, like maybe one of the really nice Benidorm Holidays. We’ve never been there either. We’ll just have to take our time and find somewhere new to take a vacation. I just want to explore a new city or country, not one we’ve already been to, you know?
I always try to help some of the children in our tribe and this year I saw Zenni Optical on TV!!! Talk about a blessing because I can get several pairs of $8 Rx eyeglasses for the children before school starts back. I know several of the children need them too. All I can say is a big ‘High Five to Zenni Optical‘ for making it possible.
