There has been another improvement in the computer system at work for our pleasure, convenience, satisfaction, and productivity. Blogspot is blocked. I can get to Blogger and load the Dashboard. But not the blogs themselves – nope, no way. This goes right along with the new improved file encryptions – stopping all use of outside thumb drives since the system encrypts anything it which gets hooked up.
I can still read email for now, but can’t cruise many blogs much less get to Flickr or upload anything unless I bring it in on a CD. Going back in time and technology I guess.
On the renovation front – tomorrow the shower door installer will be coming to fix up the shower. Also the repair man for the fridge since we have a door that is no longer shutting.
Spinning
I have these lovely rovings that I purchased over a year ago from Winderwood Farms. I have decided that I will spin the two wheels I have of the first one before going on to the rest.
The fine singles look rather nice if I do say so myself.
Books & Audio Books
Marcia Muller’s most recent Sharon McCone mystery is The Ever-Running Man. Although not always easy to follow, I really enjoyed it. With roots to motives and characters going back to the Viet Nam era
For those of you who do not like readers who do voices – you might want to consider Lawrence Block’s latest book in his Keller ‘Hit” series. He does his own readings. I enjoy the stories, but his gravely voice is a bit too close to a monotone for my taste. Others just love his readings.
