Can you see me now?

[susandennis]

I really need to get my eyes fixed. Glasses or contacts or something. The computer gets more and more difficult to see every day. I end up hunched over it just to read the words. I just ordered the cheapest readers that Amazon has to offer.

My right eye has a lens for seeing things far away and my left eye's lens is for close up things. So readers with both lenses magnified the same amount does me zero good. Hopefully, I can remove one of the lens of these readers and come out with a makeshift solution that will hold me until I can get to the eye doctor.

So yesterday, it was chilly in here and I shut the door to the terrace and apologized to Biggie. He loves being on that terrace but I was getting cold. Then about an hour later I did a doubletake. Biggie was out on the terrace??!!! WTF?

Ha! totally forgot about the cat door. Which he now loves. Later on we had a gynomrous wind and rain storm. And he sat, for the longest time, with his nose out his door and the rest of him inside. It cracked me up.



The yarn on the hallway shelves is perfect. I could have put it all on one shelf but I have more coming so I left room. But, I do like the look. And it is, for sure, handy!



Changes are still happening at the baseball park. Since January, they've had the entrance closest to me fenced off but this morning the fences were gone.

Nothing on the agenda today. The big ticket item may well be taking the garbage down to the dumpster. I may hold off on that thrill until after lunch.

Now is shower time.

Love the yarn storage solution!

LoL, I blame type getting smaller and smaller.
I have upped the default font size setting for my windows computer, adjusted the font size in the LJ settings, and sometimes in Chrome I 'Zoom' in to 120% to 150% view mode. XD

having two screens does help. for sure. And, yeah. some of my web pages now looking like children's books.

OmG! I took a page from your book recently. Aaron got me a couple monitors, so I can have one on either side of my FrankenWin (Mac machine with Windows running on it). The space my computer is in is a closet essentially, and so I have them set up Portrait mode. It works like a treat though. You are brilliant!

So handy. Especially when I am working on spread sheets. I can have banking receipts open on the left screen, spread sheet on the center, and chat and the calculator on the right. So sweet!

[susandennis]

Oh I'm so glad you discovered multi screens. It is heaven. You are so smart to do the portrait mode, too. My little laptop add on cannot do portrait as long as it is attached and not attached. But, I might try it out on an easel.

You’ve inspired me to move my yarn upstairs into my currently-in-progress office. Such lovely rainbows.

[susandennis]

I have had these shelves now for 15 years and never thought of it myself until Carolyn mentioned it. I'm delighted to inspire!

The yard looks nice that way!!! Very colorful and fun, and as you say, easy to access.

Love Emily from the UK

Ive been inspired by your blog and live cams. Why did you get into this and how does it help your daily life?

Re: Love Emily from the UK

[susandennis]

I'm guessing you are asking the why and how question about my live cams? I got into it when my mother was still alive and lived 3,000 miles away. She wanted to see me. Now my brother (2,000 miles away) uses them to check up on me.

Perhaps a Monocle? *grins*

[susandennis]

actually that's exactly what I need!

My cats do the same when it rains

[somedayseattle.livejournal.com]

Your yarn is a lovely rainbow

[christalin80.livejournal.com]

Lol at Biggie, looking cute as always.

For some reason your yarn makes me smile. I really need to get some and see if I remember how to crochet.

Happy Saturday to you both.

What a clever way to store your knitting wool. What do you plan to do with all the odd bits left over?

[susandennis]

Actually, I plan to use another shelf for those. Today. Stay tuned.

[msconduct.livejournal.com]

Yay, I'm so happy you posted a photo! It looks just as pretty as I thought. How handy that you bought such a lovely rainbow of yarn!
