the adaptor blew up and the library

Today I went off to the library to return the books that were due yesterday. I love the library. I find something very restful about being surrounded by books. Anyway I thought I should see if I could find the first book in this series that the Gals have said is a very good. There is only one problem ...................I can't remember the name of the series, the book or the Author. This makes it very difficult to find the book so I phone Gail and say " What was the name of that book I wanted to borrow that you thought you had but didn't?" There is a long pause ................... then Gail says "I can't remember." .................. After a few seconds she remembers that the second book in the series is "Dragonfly in Amber". I check out on the library computer and find out that the first book is "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon. I then phone Gail to tell her what I found out. I sure hope this is a good book.

Saturday Hugh and Molly are here for dinner, we are waiting for Bill who is late. We are just chatting and enjoying a glass of wine when the adapter/charger for the laptop BLOWS UP. Yes that is right it BLEW UP .................... there was noise, sparks, flames and smoke. The case burst open and the insides burst forth.......... what a mess, It is FUBAR and now we don't have a computer to use. There is the PC in the ROOM but it isn't set up and there is no anti-virus for it and no place to set it up ............ darn ...............darn ...........darn.

BUT as you see I have made this post................. right. Darling Daughter Jill has brought over her laptop for us to use. I think she figures her Dad will loose it without his daily computer fix.

Maybe by Friday we will have things back to normal around here or as close to it as we get.
