I'm baaaack! - ShadowsDad - 02-18-2022
I don't know how I got it, but some malware got into my computer. It was a popup that wouldn't let me do anything. It took 3 weeks to get a tech here to clear it out. I learned a few things during the outage. I learned how much I dislike virtual keyboards. Not as much as my dislike for phone keyboards though. I also learned that having to delete a hundred or more emails individually each day is the pits.
But my computer is up and running again.

Glad you are back! 3 weeks for a tech is outrageous...wish I was closer so I could have helped you out!

Yeah, it was the pits being w/o for so long. But the tech that does house calls is a gun person and while he was cleaning out my computer we were talking firearms.
I hope to never need to use my Kindle for emails again. But it did mean I could keep up with my emails. I just couldn't/wouldn't "type" complete answers. I also couldn't initiate any since my email addresses are in the computer, not the Kindle. Oh well. It's over.

I do the majority of my online stuff on my phone. My kids are using the computer for school work and or watching stuff online so much I'd never get through everything otherwise.
