~Fun Day~

Well today was a real fun day..Guess who got to enjoy a

phone call from me?? well HEWLETT PACKARD of course.

the people that made my new computer AND my 3 in 1

scanner..Guess what? This new computer has VISTA on it.

and my HP scanner will not load into my HP computer

because of VISTA!!!..I spent 3 hours on the phone this

morning.. I talked to 7..as in SEVEN people, most in India,

that had NO idea what I was talking about because that

problem wasn't programmed into their keyboards.. Well, I

talked to Anna first, in India..then I talked to Kevin in

New York, then to a girl I didn't get her name..then there

was Harsha and Sother...and another I didn't get the name.

I have no problem with where people are from..but I have

a very hard time understanding these techs they have in

India..its probly a problem with my ears..Two of these

techs said I would have to pay $35.oo to get a cd to load

my scanner.. I went totally ballistic.. I will take this computer

back before I will pay to down load a HP Scanner into a

HP computer all because they put this crappy Vista in it?
No.. I told them I will take this back first..

Well finally I reached a man..that KNEW what he was talking

about and told me just exactly what to do and ALL online and

ALL for free..I do NOT understand how all these people I

talked to had different solutions and some had NONE! One

guy told me to just buy a new scanner!! hows that for good

business!! I was SO mad by the time I got to the guy that

finally helped me I was ready to throw both this computer

AND scanner out in the street!! I hope HEWLETT PACKARD

has a crawler so they can pick up on this flame about them,

just like COMCAST did..This is crap as far as I'm concerned

what all I had to go thru..Then as mad as I was I didn't look

at the time and I hear a knock and there is Theresa..she got

to see a mean me.. :-)

I told Theresa what happened as I havent seen her since all

this computer crap happened..So I filled her in and showed

this new puter to her, she has XP... She heard the last part

of my conversation so I had to explain..but she agreed it

wasn't right .. She informed me she has a new kittie and I

saw a picture of it she had on her cell phone..Its so cute,

makes me want a baby kittie..Dutch would go insane if I

did and LB I don't think he could go thru another baby if

it was another one like Dutch..Its name is Abby and shes

a little long haired Tiger... Theresa is really enjoying this

kittie..she missed hers so much... We talked about every

thing, she listens to all my gripes..I told her what I have been

told lately about inspiring others...she agreed as she said

I did her too...I explained to her that I don't see that I do

that..she explained that its because it comes so naturally

to me to be a helper...that I don't notice... I tried to tell

her its just that I'm bossy and like to tell people what to

do ! She laughed.. :-)

So, after Theresa left, my phone rang and it was Rebecca,

she was out in my driveway and wanted to stop in for a

minute ! I asked why she didn't just come to the door, she

said she knows I like to be forewarned..door knocks really

do scare me If I'm not expecting anyone...She promised to

bring her son Taylor to meet me..Hes been having trouble

with allergies lately..Shes a good worker and so very nice.

She didn't stay long as she still had another client to see..

So after everyone left.. I ran the install that I downloaded

from the HP site..and believe me I was holding my breath..

It seemed to take for ever to load..but as I write this I now

have my printer re connected.. I was going to try to install

my web cam but after this with HP I will wait until tomorrow

today has been exciting enough for one day.. I don't need

anymore crap...although the ladies coming by wasn't crap,,

that was nice... Computers are such a wonderful thing why

do they have to make us NUTZ??? :-)

I didn't have any lunch today as it was ...well YOU name it..

I have NO idea what it was..I'm not real hungry so I may

just make a PB & J sandwich.. Sounds good.. I'm ready to

get out of this chair..my patootie butt is telling me to HURRY

so Its time for my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "nitey nite"

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? Love ya and THANKS!
Always, Lois ****

God Bless You, is my prayer today,

I'm so honored to call you "friend"

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

until I write again .....
