We finally got the new computer going--it is fantastic! the old one had improved for a while but it was back to being slow and stalling and Richard was having trouble loading pictures. I had bought some easy transfer software, but we ran into some difficulty with it, and called in my brother, and between us got it done. He gave us a different monitor, because the old one (which was actually quite nice) had the wrong kind of HDMI connector for the new computer
What an exciting game, Jane!
Patsy, sorry the book sale procedures have changed--I know you enjoyed stocking your area and working with the people there. Glad your eyes are healing. I will be driving a friend for an eye procedure next month.
We got some snow and ice, but then some warmer days so it's mostly gone. It even was warm enough on a couple days that we walked outside, and I filled the bird feeder with only a light jacket on. We so some Sandhill Cranes! though we have yet to see a robin:)
June --good to be reminded about taxes...I got some stuff together for it but still need to fill out prep sheet and get it in. I was disappointed Ebay did not provide a 1099, I thought that that was the point of all the hoop-jumping we did last year. Apparently you have to have a larger number of sales to get one, and Richard isn't doing a whole lot ( it mainly supports his collecting...) I wish IRS had a category for hobby sellers. And I'd like to have a 1099. Also, they did not provide a breakdown of sales taxes collected--it's just swept in with other fees.
Gail, hope your house is Ok.
cars--Had some tires issues, including a flat while away from home. Now have four new tires....LOL back in the day we bought a whole car(used) for about the same price! Back then we really gambled on a couple of longer trips in that car. First DH thought the junker could do anything, and we did have rather good luck with it not breaking down.
Beth, Your business success with Ebay still blows me away, you really have accumulated sales acumen and are a very hard worker!
