Didn't even realize the other one was full. Think I'm done my Requests stuff for "month end" Think I'm going to go to Jean Coutu in case it closes in like 15 minutes. Want to pick up a few things, including junk food.

Got a dentist appointment tomorrow afternoon, so won't have to be up super early.

Good luck at the dentist's Johnnie. @ stocking up on junk food first.

How are you today Tracey?

If anybody has title suggestions, please feel free to speak up.

Running CHKDS on my Computer (posting on my tablet), been noticing it completely freeze up and be all colourful a lot lately when watching videos on YouTube, not sure if it is an issue with the browser or whatever is used to play the videos but it hasn't crashed yet doing other things... It's seemingly taking forever to verify file data though... so maybe the problems this drive was giving me in the past is coming back to bug me...

Can't seem to skip this CHKDSK thing, it got to a point where it told me there wasn't enough space to replace bad sectors and looks like it stopped working so I forced a shutdown and now it's going through the process again... Guess I'll just leave it be (Got a Dentist appointment in like an hour and a half)... I've known the main hard drive has had some issues for awhile... Not sure I can just easily copy over the entire operating system to another drive or If I'd end up having to do a fresh install... which I do not want to end up having to do.

I wanted to get back on the computer to delete some of the files so it had more room to work. But I guess I have my laptop, tablet, and other devices to go online with in the meantime.

Johnnie - that was all Greek to me. Good luck getting it sorted out.

Tracey - yeah, Thursdays are like that. Almost to the weekend, but not quite.

Dave - it's a good thing February is a short month because I am so ready for spring. Was glad to see Wiarton Willie predict an early spring.

Well I got two keyboards hooked up to my computer at the moment, only way I could bypass my CHKDSK I set to run when the computer started... my USB keyboard wasn't being detected, so I set up one of older keyboards... so at the moment two of them are hooked up.

I might see about creating a 'clone' of all my installed programs and operating system and copy it onto the new hard drive I bought... but I had internal hard drives... I'm going to have to figure out how to put this into the computer if there is even a way for me to hook up another one to this computer...

Basically I think I need to create a backup to my external hard drive and then maybe open it onto my new hard drive and then take out the one I'm currently using and set the new hard drive as the one it boots from? I don't want to do it... I'll likely procrastinate on it until I have more time or my brother offers to help.

ETA: Bought a Zelda 8-bit amiibo and a Pop Agents of SHIELD Agent Daisy Johnson bobblehead today among other things when I was in the city after my dentist appointment.

Johnnie - nice that you had some time for shopping.

Tracey - when is it you go to Vegas? Supposedly Celine puts on a good show.

Hubby has quite the cough. Here's hoping he doesn't share it with me.

:: tries not to be jealous of Tracey going on holiday ::

Was outside for a bit this morning. It's a real bitter cold that seems to go straight to your bones.
