HOW EMBARRASSING
Did you see the date of the last post. Good Lord in heaven. It's too embarrassing.
What cha been doin?
We worked on our camp at Bass Lake this spring. Al did the work inside and out and I worked inside, the lunch committee of one was me. Living back at Bass Lake is hard living. No elec. no water, or indoor plumbing makes for hard living. Not to mention our little Ozzy, the blind doggie. Ozzy loves his house and not much else. The car, cabin strange smells back at camp in the yard, etc all stress him out very badly. The little love pupster breaks my heart when he cries. We have to take turns sitting with him to calm him down. But at Al's age he needs a rest a couple times a day.
Phoebe on the other hand loves the car rides, the walk into camp which takes us about 12 minutes, but is much easier than riding over that terrible two track.
I stayed out to camp by myself for 13 days, Al came out twice for dinner and once to spend the night. He had too much work to be back there every day. Oh well, someone had to enjoy camp, might as well be me.
I saw two bunnies this year. They just munched away on the grass around the cabin and were not particularly afraid of me or Phoebe. They must sense that Phoebe is 11 years old. To my wonderful surprise while reading in the gazebo one evening Phoebe was very curious sniffing the air then went to the other side of me and kept sniffing the air. When I turned around there was one gorgeous Bobcat! My first one to see, ever! The three other "Bobcats" that I saw were actually Canadian Links, grey, black and white fur. This smaller cat was brown and black. It looked at me for a second, then turned and showed me their short black bob tail. I was so excited.
Every day was wonderful. I read, sewed on my Reverse Quilting pillow, wrote letter for Snail mail to the kids and grand sons, ate, went to bed early and got up early to watch the sunrise every morning.
Later in the month of June, my computer gave up the ghost, called the Geek and he told me to keep the blamed thing shut down till he could come over and fix everything. Since Al's computer needs some serious work along with mine the $$$$ were going to be high. I told him to give me a couple weeks to collect pennies, look through purses, coat pockets, and old books that have dollar bills for bookmarks.
Then he got sick, his boys got sick, they are in Canada with mommy, long short of it, I was without a computer for 10 weeks. Life happens, and to be quite honest, did not miss this thing as much as I feared.
But was I shocked when he told me about the number of viruses on this dumb thing. I see a Mac in my future.
Well it;s almost 5 in the a.m. so I guess I better go make Al's lunch for work today.
Oh yes, the worst of this virus business? I lost over a 1,000 pictures on my Picasa program. And I see that so many of the pictures are missing of the previous posts. Including the dead coyote post.
If thats my only problem, then no complaints. Later..............
