My stupid Mac backs up changes in files every hour in the background. Apple has it built into the system and calls it Time Machine because you can navigate to a file or folder and then go back thru past versions and restore or recover the one you want. The most I can lose is an hours worth of new data except for email because my setup keeps current copies of email on the server for 14 days.

I have a 2tb Toshiba usb drive hooked to my airport extreme and back up all my photos and music to it.

The dealership manager is handling my car and taking care of all charges.....they're replacing the entire rear wiring harness

Well the other day when the doorbell rang and I was offered to jump a mom, my huge cat growled. Today the UPS guy delivered a package and when he knocked on the door the car growled again. I have a guard cat.

Cool.
Our dogs would just wiggle their entire bodies and lick a stranger. Actually I prefer that. No barking no aggression. Just friendly.

He actually really did like Dave, and not just as a snack

Morning Y'all.
Well the rain has finally stopped and the cold front has passed through and it looks like a beautiful day on tap for us

How old is the kid mowing?

When I had my hip replaced I hired the neighborhood yard boy to mow and edge my yard. It is 81.

Incredible picture Jeff!!


Yeah, I'm relieved that they finally decided to check the one thing I've been telling them I thought was wrong for a damn month. I'm more relieved that the GM is a cool guy and knows I've been asking about this connector for a month........parts and labor on that harness are not cheap, Have to completely drop the entire back end of the car to put it in, subframe, gas tank, suspension, control arms, axle......all of it goes

We drove up to Enid to visit the MIL. Just outside of OKC a Mercedes SUV passed me going 5 to 8 mph faster than me. It is not an interstate it is all rural highway. There is a town every few miles. Every town has a police force that loves to issue tickets. Mr Mercedes was pulled over just past the 1/2 way point on the trip. I so wanted to tap the horn and wave as we drove by but I refrained.

The wheat fields are just getting planted. We drove past a lot of open dirt fields. In a few months months it will be green fields.
