This and that

Got up way too late today, which really put a crimp in my schedule. This was the first meeting of the local genealogy society for the year. As the newsletter editor I felt the need to be there, plus we were touring the new genealogy room at the new library. Very nice. I look forward to doing reserach there, assuming I ever find the time to get back to my genealogy.

I picked up a high gain antenna for my wireless router today. Took me awhile to get the one off, but both are now in place. I look forward to taking my laptop out of the bedroom and into the living room tomorrow to see how they are going to work out. At some point I am going to have to get my office nice and cleaned out so that I can work back there most of the time.

The TV/VCR combo in my bedroom has partially died. No, the TV and VCR work fine, however the remote control has completely given up the ghost. I have a universal remote, however it is not looking like it is something with the remote receiver on the TV. I am going to try the last resort way of getting it programmed tomorrow, but things are not looking good. I have an extra TV back in my office (yea, I have 3 TVs for 1 person), but that will require me to pickup some more electronics so that I can hook up my DVD player.

From 24 Knits, a meme to finish up with:
