My day has started out with an early morning phone call from my dad. It seems I've been designated fax machine specialist for the day. He's setting up his home office and I am supposed to help my mom get one. Then I will have to teach her to run it. They don't exactly embrace technology, but that's ok. I'm happy to help.
I got a chuckle at the both of them over the weekend when I was at their new house and they were telling me that they thought their new cordless phone was a dud. I did a little investigating. They hadn't plugged it into the jack. :-) Of course, they thought I was Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius, over that.
Today is a beautiful day. I had hoped to get by with doing a little house cleaning and then heading back to bed for a while. I still feel rotten with my sinus allergies flaring. If I could breathe out of my nose that would be a stark improvement. I'll live though. My blood sugar is good, so I must be maintaining alright.
I better get moving. I'm not sure when Mom will be here and I need to become a whirlwind of a maid to tidy the house a bit.
Talk to you later.

Don't forget about the SC Chat Room I have set up for us. You'll find it here.

CW ... first, I'm in the SC chat room now! Heh, I find myself logging into SC, and then logging into the chat room. I came across Queenie, and then later in the same chat, Trav, the other night. It was fun. I hope your technology education situation goes all right today, lol. I know that feeling all to well when you're going into an uphill battle so far as that stuff goes, my dad does the same stuff. He'll get something and just figure "Oh, she'll know how to use it, I'll just find out from her!" Don't ya love being so useful and knowledgeable? -

Hegemone,
I'm glad you are enjoying the chat room. I hope I run into you there soon!
I found the exact same fax machine Mom and Dad had before the fire, except it's a new model with a little different color scheme appearance wise. Mom wasn't sure if it would be "the right kind". I kind of had to talk her in to it. :-)
queen,
I was on there for a while this morning, but it was just me.
fraggles,
I did it over the weekend. I found a little free site and thought we could have fun. :-) I'll have to go read about your trip.
blue,
My nephew is the smartie of our family. He gets that stuff quite easily. :-) I need him to come and see why I can't get my DVD player to work, now that you mention it.

I'm afraid I can be either a tech smartypants or a tech idiot. Lately these days idiot seems to win over more often. I think my brain is slipping. Good you can help out your parents. -

hotaka,
I only know enough to be dangerous. I would venture to guess that you know way more than me. :-)
