    Dear partner, I got your PC done but I am now second guessing myself. Why, oh why, is making a PC so hard? LOL

    If I don't change my mind it's going out tomorrow, if I make a new one, it'll go out Tuesday.

    I'm really enjoying the different craftiness that you all have.

    Sis, I love the needlebooks and the runner. You both did really good on them. Good luck at research.Lynnie, Angus is a breed of cattle. My cow was bred by the neighbors bull who was a charlaee which happen to be white. There are red angus also. Just like with puppies.Sometimes a white pup will be born to a black mom and a white dad. and some may be like the mom black. It really has nothing to do with the color as to where they end up. Right now the black angus are popular. a few years ago Santa Gertudis were popular. They are deep red color.Once in the butcher shop you don't know what color they were. Some breeds are lower in fat content. OK todays lessons are over. There will be a test tomorrow. LOL. Good night all.

    Last night my hubs & I went to dinner with his dad and Louise (no sillies
    not me the OTHER Louise in the family).

    Louise told me that she placed her order for her new iPad Air... that means
    I am getting her old iPad3 (I have dad's old iPad1 from when he gave it to
    my hubs who than gave it to me).

    I am excited to be getting the upgraded iPad because there are several apps
    that I have been wanting to get, but can't because the iOS doesn't go beyond
    the 5.0 version (the apps I want requires 6.0 or later).

    Thinking about giving my (current) iPad to my daughter, but we will see if she
    wants to mess with it or not.

    Lynnie In my household we are VERY technology savvy people.

    For ME I have the following:
    1 desktop computer (1-1/2 yr old)
    1 netbook (mini laptop without a cd/dvd drive)
    1 laptop (regular fullsize 15" screen)
    1 iPod (this is the second one wore the first out)
    1 iPad first generation
    1 android smart phone

    My hubs on the other is the REAL household computer guru/geek
    and he wears that title (geek) proudly, he has been working on
    computers since the early 1980's when he got his first appleII.

    On his desk he has about 7-10 computers, one just for doing nothing
    but collecting his email, one that is our internet server, one is the router
    for the phones, one just for out movies, one is the home network, one or
    two are just for his regular internet use, and I can't begin to name the uses
    of all the others he has.

    Than he also has the following devices:
    1 netbook
    1 laptop
    1 Nexus tablet
    1 android smart phone that is his regular use phone
    and about 3 older decommissioned smart phones to use in the car or jeep
    (depending which vehicle he is driving)
    2 tomtom GPS each one set up with different functioins

    Now I am not sure what all he uses the smart phones for, but I DO know
    that one of them is hardwired into the Jeep to keep a check on motor temperature.

    If any one asks him "why?" does he have all the gadgets, electronics, computers
    etc... his answer is always....... why not? and because I can.

    Right now he is working on the new antenna set up so we can get rid of the Dish
    Network. The oldest daughter works for Dish and she had set it up for us to receive
    her employee discount, meaning that we got ALL the premium channels (hbo, max etc...)
    for about $21 per month. But she is getting ready to move into a new apt. that will
    allow her to set up a satellite dish. That meant our monthly dish bill was going to
    go back up to $106 per month and even cutting all the channels we didn't want
    the bill was only going to come down to $76.

    We knew the day was coming when we would loose the satellite and hubs has been
    working on alternative tv viewing and recording for us, he just about has everything
    ready.

    So getting the new (to me) iPad is going to really help as I will be able to set
    up an app on the newer ipad that will let me watch movies from out movie computer
    or stream programs that I like to watch such as my 1 (and only) soap that I record
    daily right now.

    I know that was a long winded post... sorry if I went so far over everyone's head
    with details.

    Rosemary those are very pretty needle cases. Teresa you did a great job on them.
    Also a very pretty table runner.

    Quilty Louise I understand most of it, but don't have it all. I have my laptop, after my net book quit. Had 3 other laptops before spilling things on them. (never again) Have had several table top computers. My hubby has table top computers about 3(one has a very large flat screen), and threw out a bunch of old table top computers. He has a lap top too. We don't have iphones.
