Why was Windows 10 a mistake?
I do get prompts from time to time to "upgrade".

Happy New Year all. My wife and I are pulling the night shift at the hospital with her dad so her sister could get a break and spend the evening with her husband. We will watch the ball drop on TV then crash on the cot and reclining chair in the room. It's not too bad though I get to be with my wife and her dad appreciates the company so he does not have to have the bed alarm on. We will have to head home on Saturday but may come back later in January or February depending on how he responds to the chemotherapy. So far it seems to be working as the doctors expected it to.

First post on this thread for 2016!

I have Windows 10 on both of my laptops and, so far, so good.

Glad treatment is working so far Zandron.

I just got a hold of them to change me back on windows 8. Some guy started clearing every thing out. Turned me over to another India guy couldn't hardly under stand him. So he comes up with this BS that it is going to cost me $340 to have it done. What the HELL.
I told him it was suppose to be done by them so I thought free. He lowered it to $240 I still told him Hell No. So he says its a one time fee & they will take care of all up dates & security to my computer. So I proceed to tell him NO NO NO I just want my windows 8 back.
Another big surprise he dropped the price to $69.95. So I told him were getting closer to FREE. He say not going to happen we'll set this all up. I asked him do I have to put my credit card number on computer? or course you know the answer to that.
It's not going to happen from me. I sais I'm done here he said good by. And left me trying to get back to my Camaro5.com what a pain in the A$$ but I made it.
Thanks for the heads up. Hope you get it worked out.

Glad you are getting to spend some time with him & that treatment seems to be starting out well. Hope he improves. Take care of yourselves too. Happy New Year.

Nice!

Mike & I ordered a little bling for our cars interiors.

What a busy day yesterday was. I had noticed that mornings are by far the worst with my tooth so decided that since hte pain med was running out in the middle of the night, maybe I needed to take a dose in the middle of the night. Many pain meds make me sick to my stomach but this one had been doing okay so far so I thought it would be okay. I woke up at 2:00 AM & took the pill just with some water I had put at bedside. Slept the rest of the night & woke up feeling okay. After my breakfast I started getting ready for a day out with my son & mother-in-law but started feeling nauseous & hurting again. I ended up throwing up all my breakfast & morning meds & thought I would not get to go. We tried to call them but they were already on the way & did not answer. By the time they got here I was starting to feel better & decided to try to go. My son said if I started feeling bad he would bring me home. I have not taken any more pain meds since & am feeling better.

We had a nice day eating out & shopping. I ended up getting a designer shirt, 2 sweaters & 4 pairs of pants. My son got me the shirt 1 sweater & 1 pants & I got hte rest for only a little over $100. Not a bad haul. Then I got home just in time to change into one of the new outfits & head out to a New Year's eve party with some of my club comrades. We played games, ate some good food, watched a funny movie & some football & had a few drinks. It was nice to go out for New Years for a change, something we had not done for years.

I'm headed over to my sister's house today for our belated Christmas gift exchange & to make some healthy home made skin care & cosmetic products together.

Happy New Year to all my friends here.

They tried to talk root canal with me but I had already decided that tooth was not worth trying to save being already largely fillings & being the very back one, just seems best to let it go. Good luck to you with your procedures.

I am so not looking forward going back to work on Monday. I took the last two weeks off since my 7 year old son has been out of school. We had a great time, Chuck E Cheese, Dave and Busters, movies and being lazy at home playing lots and lots of video games. Monday is going to suck.

I'm with you! I've been off since the 17th. My job requires a lot of travel. I spent over 150 nights in a hotel room last year so it's been nice sleeping in my own bed with my beautiful wife! When I'm not traveling I work out of my home office. The only travel that I have planned for next week is one night in Orlando ---

Good evening folks. I had a nice day with my sisters yesterday. I got some cool gifts, shared some good food & laughs, we made some home made cosmetics then we worked on some paperwork for settling daddy's estate. It is a lot to deal with & we have quite a ways to go. Mike & I did a bit of shopping today. I got me a new coat & a new robe & slippers. kicked back now watching a movie. One more day hopefully & I can get rid of this bad tooth.

It's 48* and raining here this morning. Supposed to start clearning this afternoon with a low in the 30's tonight. Good news is we're supposed to be back in the 70's by Friday....

Slept in this morning. It is a typically chilly morning for Tennessee wintertime but supposed to be really cold tonight. I am still having mild pain in my tooth & am REALLY hoping they will pull the darn thing tomorrow. I don't need a consultation to have a painful tooth pulled. Just an excuse to bill for another office visit & to leave me hurting for another week. Just a lazy day planned for today.
