Use help.

Use help when it is available.  There times when we cannot do it all, unless you are alone then you might have to get creative. This article is for folks that have to get past the occasional brain fart and pride.  It is a brand new year, my wife and I have three kids. We wanted to rearrange their their rooms and make it as permanent as possible so we did away with kiddie furnitures, and bunk beds.  So, we have a twin/ full size bunk bed that was occupying one of the rooms we wanted to to rearrange. My wife put the bunk bed on Craig's List and had several inquiries.    Some of the folks who inquired about the bunk bed flaked, except for one. We had made arrangements for the sale and pick up of the bunk bed.  The night before the scheduled meet up time, I was taking apart the bed. I had my eleven year old son (middle son) help me.    My son was done unscrewing his portion of the bed where the horizontal bed frame attaches to the vertical leg frame....

This is a test post. These photos are attached. This one should work. Embed a photo in the first post did not work for me a few years ago when I tried it. I don't know if anything has changed by Google.

Legos

Image
  Lego After two weeks of being in quarantine, I finally got to go home and spend some time with my family.  I had some Christmas gifts. I got a shirt, shorts, pants, and a Lego set. This was not any old Lego set.    It was a Lego set that brought back nostalgic memories from years ago (long time). The Lego set is the Nintendo Entertainment System, Kit #71374. It might be on the pricey side, but I would like to to think I am totally worth every cent. Despite the price, when you sit there and start building, like all the other Lego sets out there, there are a lot of little details that go into them.  Just in the TV set if this Lego set, there are    a lot of moving parts. There is a crank which moves Mario through a moving screen. The details that go into it is extremely amazing! The folks at Lego that dream this stuff up, kudos!  The second part of the build is the Game console itself. The detail again for this build is amazing! It has moving part...

 Source:  Men’s Health I need to lose weight and I’ve done what everyone else have done: diet, exercise, fasted.  Joined gyms, sign up for 5K runs with friends, ran with friends, ran by myself, and everything else I’m sure you’ve done. However, I would have some early success before I start gaining my way back. So, there is Internet articles about how to gain muscles six packs lose weight or how to become the next Iron Man really work? That’s what I want to find out after finding this article about a guy doing 100 Burpee’s per day. Does it really work? We’ll see.

  Customer service. How many times have you had to call customer service. For me it seems like I have to call customer service to three maybe four times a year usually buy the same products. Now I have a DIRECTV at home and several HP products, And usually I am the one that makes all the phone calls. What prompted me to write this article is because I have children like some of you who are having to use computers chrome books, and iPads to learn remotely. And unfortunately as we all know with technology things happen and it forces you to have to deal with customer service of a particular product. In this case, not to pick on Hewlett-Packard, but    my older son is using a HP he had broken his other chrome book, and school starts in less than week.  I don’t mind making the phone calls I just sometimes hate having to deal with    customer services, because when you navigate websites sometimes it just seems like it makes you are running around in circles. And ...

  On the morning of Christmas, I found out that I had COVID-19. I had some but not all of the symptoms. The symptom that concerned me the most was the breathing, soreness in chest .   So, today December 31, 2020, I received an oximeter, which my wife ordered through Amazon. It was recommended by the urgent care doctor, whom I had a Zoom meeting with.    He was telling me if my oxygen saturation percentage was 93% or higher but had trouble breathing I should probably come into Urgent care. On the other hand if my oxygen saturation level was below 93% and I had trouble breathing, then I would need to make a trip to the hospital.    Of course, I do not need a machine to tell me that I am having trouble breathing (if there is such a machine). I mean, I can just tell that I am having a shortness of breath, right?  What I cannot tell is the oxygen saturation level in my blood.    How do I know if I need to go to the hospital,    urgent ca...

Green: British Consumers Could See Lower Electric Bills By Mid-2020s As Wind Farms Produce Cheaper Power

Image
Source:   SciTechDaily . To some, wind farms are eye sores to the point that a former liberal US senator who championed renewable energy does not want them near his vacation home .  However, wind power is a growing source of energy for Britain.  And soon, British energy bills could start going down as it becomes more cost effective and cheaper to produce power using wind than traditional fossil-fueled power stations.   By mid-2020s, instead of getting government subsidies to offset the cost of setting up wind turbines, these wind farms (sorry, Senator Kennedy) will not only need no help from the government but they will start lowering electric bills to the average British consumers. It's like that other countries that have invested a lot of sources and encourage green power generation will also soon reap the benefits of their decades long investment.   The SciTechDaily article is based on a study from the Imperial College London that studied the price of electri...
