One of my coworkers just bought a new PC desktop, but his router is a mac airport.  He has all the codes etc, and entered them to connect, but when he tries to use the internet, while he has fantastic reception, the message "limited connectivity" is always popping up and he can't get a browser to open.

At least a tractor isn't plowing over our old place.  While we are moving today, we have a whole week to make the old place squeaky clean before we have some friends coming to stay in it.

Don't know when we will be connected again.  We think we have wireless at the new place, but if not we'll have to wait until Cu can turn our apartment "on".

My favorite knitting website just unveiled their summer patterns. One of the patterns included an adorable anklet specifically designed for her "vlogs" (favorite shoes).

One of the knitting journals that I read just posted this link in relation to some embroidery she is doing. I just love the tops. I may need to order some...
