It's fixed! It's fixed!

 "no-one" came knocking on my door around morning-tea time, I gave up my computer chair and she got to work. 

Plugged things in, turned them on, downloaded and installed a new updated printer driver, did  a few other things and then we tested it. 

It worked!! I'm so happy. I owe her my sanity. I printed copies of my most recent Friday stories, but sadly the rest are lost as I accidentally "cleared queue" and if I want copies I'll have to scroll back through several weeks worth of posts and print from those. 

I've done that before when catching up after being unable to afford printer ink and it's a lot of work. I have the time, but I'll have to wait until I'm in the mood. 

Thank you "no-one" 💖💖

    "downloaded and installed a new updated printer driver"
    It either works or you spend 8 hours trying to figure out what little step you missed.

      Mike; she dis a few other things besides the download, there were little windows open all over the screen and I didn't have a clue what they were. But the printer is working 😃😃

      Bob; I'll never fool around with any of the settings ever again. Not that I did in the first place, the printer just one day was "offline" and I didn't do it.

    Good for you in getting it all up and running. Printer drivers are the worst. I've tackled far too many for friends on the verge of offing themselves in frustration.

Words for Wednesday

Image
 The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.
