A New PC!!!

Yes I have a new PC!!
So, this weekend there was
no sewing
no blogging
no  cooking ( Oh, wait, I never do that anyway)!

But there was computer time!!
It set up like a breeze, well that is until the internet part arrived. Two hours on the phone with my brother in Texas and she was purring like a kitten ( Thanks Joe xox)!!!!
I went all out with this baby! I bought a 24 inch monitor!  Talk about large, this is how I felt!


It was just too large for me! So back it went and I am now happily using an 18.5 inch monitor!!
This is the first monitor in many years where I can use it as intended. I do not have to change the screen resolution. That means I can see whole pages without having to scroll right to left!
For me, this is a super biggie!!
Did you know that my blog has blue polka dots on the sides?
I never saw that!!!

  4. Go, Jane, Go - When I got my new PC, I hated the setting up part until DWH got everything like I wanted - guess I am not very good at handling change - just ask DWH. Hope you enjoy your new found "wonderment." Happy computing. Judy C in NC

  7. Jane, this is so funny about the blue polka dots! I love your blue polka dots. I am glad you got you a new computer and monitor and updated yourself. Love your blog by the way.

  8. Congratulations on the new computer! My husband subscribes to the "bigger is better" philosophy, so I have one of those 24 monitors! Actually, I love it!
    Yes, I've been enjoying your polka dots. Glad you can see them now!

  9. Hooray for Jane! I laughed when I read that the 24 inch was too big for you! My husband works from home and has three 24 inch monitors set up side by side! I love getting time on the 'big' computer so I can have all my windows open and visible at once and move easily between them! At first I thought it was ridiculous but now I love it!

    Nice for you to finally be able to see just how cute your website is!

  10. I am glad you could get a new puter, we seem to depend on them so much, these days. I don't like those oversized screens either, just too much.
