... well, I don't know that it is like. UPS came early today and dropped off a "smiling box." One of the things in that box is a couple strings of Christmas lights. Joan found a style she liked; we haven't updated our outside lights in a couple years, so we'll be doing something different this year.
And, of course, a box from Amazon is like Christmas for the big furry boy...
"I will love this box forever!" Or, 10 minutes. Then, it's time to sit on a lap. But, it is fun to see that moment of joy... no matter how fleeting.
The weather is still crap. And you know the old saying: When the weather is crap, it's time to run the back-up stuff. No, I'm not talking about reverse gear. I admit I am not one who makes daily back-ups on my laptop. Not weekly, either. Sometimes monthly, if I remember. Apple let me know it was time for an OS "upgrade" this morning. I have learned to back-up everything before I load the "upgrade."
I have a file on my desktop titled "2022 Ride Videos"... yes, it is all the 360 motorcycle videos I shot, most of them while we were in the Black Hills. I checked the info on that file, to see how much memory it was taking - I was shocked to see it was over 200 gigabytes! I guess I shot more than I realized. On the bright side, most of them are on YouTube, so I don't have to keep the files on my computer. So, after backing up those files on a separate hard drive, then running Time Machine on a different hard drive (that also saves everything currently on my computer), I dumped that that huge-ass, space-hogging folder. Like spring cleaning... only in the fall.
We did venture out, in the drizzle and wind, to have lunch at Blackbeard's... where I knew I could get some chicken-fried comfort food for lunch.
