I am beginning to worry. The weather has been so awful around the world and no one has been here this weekend. Please let me know that you are alright.

I had no choice except to go on line this AM. Lets just say my internet connection is being naughty big time. actually I am beginning to suspect the virus protection program is going bonkers. So at this point I can still ONLY get on by the AOL backup that I kept. Even getting through there is a battle cuz it does not work unless I open AOL, and then use one of the 2 browsers i normally use to get on line. Must admit it has been a mostly peaceful week. Sadly the first full week of vacation is all gone!! Really wanted to get more stuff done, but have gotten some of the bigger ones done, includig finally connecting my DVD/VHS player to the big TV. Sadly i cannot get the PBS station through that connection but the other 2 stations come through clearer through the player than the TV. scared me to start with because it looked like the ONLY one i could get was ch 13!! but then I found out that was because I hadnt changed one of the indicators to say it was antenna and not cable!

Currently wondering what to do with the old one. But it is old enough that the "remote" has a cord to it. Not the same age as TV and microwave. but egads, all THREE are 22-24 years old!! tempted to try goodwill but in one way that seems like a cheating way to throw it out!! thankfully it takes so little room, that is not a major issue, like the Big TV will be!!

Why does giving it to goodwill seem like cheating?

Nancy,


Out here in Calfornia we have really strict rules about what can go into the landfills.

Cheryl,


Do you know if technical assistance at iVillage could be of any help to Nancy? I am not sure and often you know about these things better than me.


Have a great weekend.

It seems like cheating because it is a really old one. Of course for that reason I also wonder if the rules on how to recycle it would apply. I have no idea what was used in them that long ago!!

Actually feel the same way about the big TV but on the other hand if i could get the front bedroom emptied out, and beg someone to move it i could always put the big TV in there, in case sister comes to visit.

At least the VCR is not too heavy to move!!

Who knows if i get really carried away maybe i will even manage to move the new air bed into my bedroom!(its a full assembly but i hate the thought of shifting some heavy stuff in bedroom to move bedframe to put the new one on
