I did get some raking done yesterday but it is kind of like as the saying goes "peeing in the sea", it didn't make that much difference. So many still to come down.

I don't really have anything on the agenda for today, but then something always manages to come up!

I'm sure that there is some mechanised way to do it, like a mini-tractor / mower that you could hire.

We have a leaf blower that does a pretty good job of moving the leaves into a pile then it is just putting them into trash bags. We don't have any setup to compost so they go to the dump.

I'm not sure I'm ready to spend $$ on a leaf blower right now, though the idea has many merits. II'll have to look at them and see if I think I can handle one.

Basically a lazy day. Mille wanted a lot of lap time and she got it!  ~ cat ~

I spent time going through a few of the crystals to pick ones I wanted to keep for myself. I didn't do that before the first time the crystal lady came and I probably gave away some I should have kept in that lot.

Spent a lot of time looking a videos to purge my printer ink. It is only really printing black any more and the other tanks are almost full so it is clogged somewhere. I'll do it today.

Also did a lot of reading on dental adhesives, having problems with the upper staying in. I found Sea Bond at the grocery on Thurs when I was in town and it is amazing! Works best of all I've tried and so easy! But I think the plate needs some adjustments so I'm reading up on Reddit about other's experiences and learning quite a bit from them. I'll be calling my dentist Monday.

I generally don't like Reddit, but a few subs I look at a bit are: cats, one TV show, now dentures. Not much controversy in those subs!

A lazy day, and frustrating day too. Trying to figure out how to run the purge to clean my printer heads turned into a bunch of YouTube videos, the end result being I guess I don't have the right cable to connect my laptop to the printer to run the program. I have a small basket full of all sorts of left over cables (and old phones!) but none match the plug in on the side of my printer. Nothing in printer box either. So that was a bunch of wasted/frustrating time.  I am beginning to be really sorry I went for the Eco Tank printer!

After all that I just let the cat curl up on my lap and I watched TV and read other things on the computer.  Same for today after everything else is done.

I am sorry you are having such a problem with the printer Barbara. Mine has worked just fine since I bought it so I don't know why you are having such of a problem. You should be able to run the cleaning program from the printers screen. If you go into maintenance and then you should find the cleaning option there. You should not need to connect your laptop to the printer. My printer is connected to the WiFi so I don't use a cable to connect the printer and it works well that way. I know that there are differences between your printer and mine but they should work mostly the same.
