susandennisAccording to Google, Daiso is .5 miles from here. And I can tell you it's mainly a flat .5 miles and today the sun, which generally annoys me to distraction, wasn't even out. I barely made it there and getting home was agony. Fuck.
But, on the other side, I have a lovely little benchmark. If/when I can get there and back without having to stop a million times to catch my breath, I will know I'm making progress.
And, my Shine was VERY impressed. I am, at 1 pm, 151% of my daily goal. (Yeah, I'd probably benefit from setting said goal a tad higher but it's default and who am I to argue?)
Google offered up their new Pixel for purchase today and I did. They did it the way I wanted. Took the old Pixel and kept the same size, shape, keyboard, trackpad and gave it far more umph and speed with superior ports (kind, placement and number of) AND a fast charging way longer battery. Just exactly what I've been waiting for. Yeah!!
One of the recipes that Anita made called for tangerines and, knowing how much I love them, she just bought a bag of them. Delicious. Just had one and may have another.

Date: 2015-03-12 04:52 am (UTC)For $999 you get a laptop that has 8GB of ram, and a 32GB ssd hard drive. And it only has the Chrome o/s, so it can't run the majority of the programs that I use every day?
I bought a brand new HP laptop with Windows 7 last October, for less than this, with a bigger processor, 2x the RAM. I paid another $200 for a 500GB ssd drive. And my laptop works when I'm somewhere that doesn't have wifi.
The idea of chromebook is nice - but my reality makes it completely impractical!
