I am almost terrified to open a program on my machine now and see what doesn’t work.  I’ve lost a lot of programs when Microsoft upgraded 7 users to 10.

I’m not really into scented candles but I do use the scented wax candles.  I think they less are easier to clean up (all you do is pour the melted wax from candle heater back into the plastic container square it came from) and less of a fire hazard (you don’t have to worry about putting it in a spot where it might be bumped into where it could fall) and cheaper since you can reuse the same wax over and over again.  I usually use the ones from Better Homes and Garden.  They take longer to melt and have a stronger smell then some other brands.

I totally agree with u. Less hazardous,  I believe the smell is even better smells/longer lasting too! I do like the flicker of the candles but have found the fake flickering candles seem a great option when u want the flickers.

Can’t believe how early the Christmas sales started.  I mean I was getting advertisements the day after Halloween!

Honestly how much do stores expect the consumer to spend?  From Halloween on there have been nothing but sales.  Most people don’t have a ridiculous amount of money to spend on lots of stuff.  And most of it probably won’t even be used by this time next year!

I’ve gone out on Black Friday and it’s crazy.  Not just the crowds but I’ve seen people in Bed Bath and beyond just loading up their carts.  It wasn’t that they needed the stuff they were just grabbing it because of how ridiculously low the price on the item was.  How can anyone shop like that?

I always start Christmas shopping early in Nov.  especially if I have to order something on-line.  I always worry if it will arrive on time even if express shipping is offered.

So switching from Windows 7 to 10 I finally found out how to alter the color on the task bar.  I think I’ll have to switch to High Contrast if I want to change the highlight color.  It’s the standard blue right now but I’m afraid if I switch to high contrast it will mess up all the other settings and I’ll have to watch a video to figure out how to go back to what I had.

Doing DIY designs on your nails isn’t bad it’s just the drying time.  I never know layer on layer how long to let the bottom dry before putting the top layer on without the two blurring together.

I like going to Church this Sunday. I haven't been able to attend for a while because of my work schedule but Now I think I can sacrifice a little bit of time before I can get some sleep. I have seen people on Black Friday going out early for shopping but if that was a time Church starts, everyone would be going to church late or not at all.

I still have to get gifts for extended family and it seems like the easiest thing is to get gift cards.

It’s crazy but sometimes when I try to charge the Ipad Air 2 in a hub it don’t charge.  I’ll leave it plugged in overnight and it won’t be charged by morning.  I know it’s not the hub because the same hub I use to charge the Ipod and it works fine.  I guess it’s picky and wants to be charged by a wall outlet instead since it always charges when I do that.

Can’t believe Microsoft 10 killed my graphic’s board.  It’s one by Bamboo and it worked fine under Windows 7.  All I can do is try and reinstall it.  I hope that works because I really don’t want to go out and by a new one.  It’s not like Microsoft is going to reimburse me for all the money I have to spend on new upgraded programs to the ones I had that worked find under Windows 7.  Lousy Upgrade!

Seriously, every Christmas I have to watch Mickey’s Christmas Carol.  I love it and think it’s the best version out there!  But then I just love cartoons and the fact that everyone remains within character though doing the Dickens’s story.
