Hi Ernie,

I am happy to hear that all is fine with you.  

Guess there are some quirks to work out on this new I Pad.  Everything is smaller……and I am still on what I call the “learning curve”.  The sign in works…guess Google Chrome does save them.  At sign in, I am asked for two forms of id., a thumbprint and passcode.  The I. Pad is  not as user friendly to sign in as my laptop but it is a convenient size and eventually I will be accustomed to all of the new changes.

A rainy day here in Ohio, followed by some high winds tonight.  I took Jim out for dinner last evening for his birthday. Splurged on salmon with delicious mashed potatoes.  

Here’s a picture of Jim’s newest acquisition;  our funds are  separate and I don’t question his purchases….So now the Nissan convertible has joined his Audi.  The only request I had was for him to store one car in the winter so the snowplows could do our driveways.  I am happy with my Honda CRV, especially since it gets Finn out and about with the steps…It has 78,000 miles on it and is a 2012, I believe.  I am very good about taking it in for its checkups and oil, etc.  Eventually I will part company with it but it is now perfect for Finn when we go out and about (steps take him up to the back).

Enjoy the day…..

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the tip.  Sign in now works….through Google Chrome.  I told Ernie that there is a two process authentication on the I-Pad (both thumbprint and passcode) that is irritating with each sign in.  Perhaps that can be avoided….I will have to explore.

As with any new technology, there is a learning curve!  

Expecting lots of rain today in Ohio and high winds tonight.  Always makes taking Finn for an outside walk not so fun.

Enjoy the day.  Tomorrow is Friday already!  My, how fast the days go by…….

Very shocking to read Kitty.  Hope this just goes by and you are and feel the same.  Have heard of people

having one and just go on like it was an illness they had.  Guess the specialist will have some life and med

instructions for you.  Brian will be helping.

Good morning Susan, Paul, Kitty, and all.  47 here this morn, unbelievable this time of the morning

in February.  Like this but feel sorry for California.  Can't help thinking the shoe will be on our feet in

the future.  Maybe not us but our region with our children or grands. 

The car looks fantastic Susan, looks like a two seat.  Must feel like a roadster.  Mine is a muscle car and

that's what it feels and sounds like.  Think a roadster has a certain sound also.  The SS seats 5 people but

it's rare anyone rides with me in it.  The exhaust hits on my daughter's steep driveway so don't take it over

there anymore.  The rear of the exhaust has to be brazed back on if it breaks instead of just a hanger.

Happy birthday to Jim.

I'm getting my transceiver radio cleaned up, taking pictures, to get ready to sell.  I don't like sales much.  Will

be glad when it's over. 

My brother up north in NY had to have his doxin dog put to sleep.  Was almost 17 years old.  Liver gave out,

he said.

I think you can change the sign in on PC's when first setting them up, more difficult later on to keep someone

else from changing it. 

Paul, I have 3 sheets of paper front and back of passwords and user IDs.  Many are outdated though.  Some

of the more important ones I don't store on the PC.  I'm afraid they will be easier to hack if stored in memory.

Susan, that's great you have steps for Finn to climb up into the Honda.  Don't have that with any of our vehicles.

Got my Subaru Baja back January 07 when the Chantix thread was started for us stop smoking people.  Went

through all the Winters, many years of working daily.  Major surgery for me to keep it going.  But if I talk to car

people what I did was standard.  A new experience for me to change the rear subframe and have frame rails

welded in.  Think the Baja was down over a month. 

Gotta get ready for our run soon.

Have a great day all.

Ernie

Good morning,

Yes, Ernie, the weather is a bit scary. Enjoyable, but it may not be in the future.  

Susan, you can probably authentication in the settings /name/security menu.  Everything takes getting used to, but I'd prefer not to use an iPad. In part because it is small and in part because it's Apple. Everyone should have multiple authentications for any financial sites, but I don't think it's needed to access an iPad. Fingerprint should be enough. 

I have a race on Sunday.  Weather should be nice.

Enjoy the day everyone.

Dear Kitty ~

Hoping that today is a good day for you.  We are leaving in a week for Florida.  We have reservations in AnnaMarie for a change.  It will be nice to explore a new area.  Still flying into Tampa.  Frontier has changed our flights two times from a.m. to p.m.  Grrr.

Thinking of you ~

Susan
