Well, that is a lot to be proud of Barbara!

It sure is, and you are right in feeling on top of the world.

104 this morning.  Our high yesterday was 76° but it is going to be much cooler today with a predicted high of 61° and it looks like we will be in the 60s for at least the next few days, about time. 
I hate computers!  I have been dealing with miserable low internet download speeds on my desktop computer for a few days.  I blamed my cable provider and when I say slow, I am supposed to get 200 Mbps or better and have been getting 15-20 Mbps which is barely enough to do some things like this forum or email.  I called to see about having a service call and the rep asked me if it was on all of my devices?  Well, I had not been smart enough to try anything except my desktop so I tried my MacBook and download speed was 250Mbps!  It's not the cable company it's my computer!  I tried some trouble shooting yesterday with no luck and I don't really know if it is a hardware or software problem.  Well, I don't have to wonder what I will be doing today, there is that.

109 this cloudy morning.

52° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 44°/29° with chance of rain showers in the afternoon.

Back to taking it really easy, not that I wasn't yesterday...

Well, I had not been smart enough to try anything except my desktop so I tried my MacBook and download speed was 250Mbps!  It's not the cable company it's my computer! 

Maybe something in the Settings is slowing the PC down.

That's the need of the hour, till you feel completely fine.

92 this morning.  Our high yesterday was 61° and windy as predicted and much more Fall like, kind of nice to have the change from hot.
I ended up doing a restore on my desktop which re-installs Windows and keeps most of your files but also removes some but my internet connection is back to where it should be and I am getting download speeds of 250Mbps and higher.  Things are mostly like they were but some are going to need to be re-installed.  It was two years ago that I built this computer and did a clean install of Windows and in that time a lot of new programs were installed and changes made that are not there now.  I think that maybe there was a Windows update or something else that corrupted Windows but it was definitely a software problem. 
Barbara, I don't know what you have available in your area but it seems like a doctors visit would be a good thing to see what can be done about your nose bleeding.  An ENT would be probably the best but I don't know if you have one nearby.

99 this partly cloudy morning.

48° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 41°/29°.

Thank goodness, no nose bleed yesterday. I do have an ENT Wally, but he is up in town and I'm not sure I can safely make the drive right now. The quieter I am the less I seem to have nose bleeds.

Could be s/w related.

Barbara, I agree with Wally. Do get a Dr's appointment and get it examined.

104 this morning.  Our high yesterday was 61° and now it is going to warm up just a bit, supposed to be 65° today and 71° tomorrow.  Now they are showing a pretty good chance of rain here Monday night and Tuesday.  That would be nice. 
Well SKB, the problem I was having with my internet connection was definitely software related.  My download speeds had become strangled at 15-20 Mbps and at first I had blamed my cable company but then I tried my MacBook and got the normal 250 Mbps so it was my desktop where the problem was.  I don't know what had changed but maybe an update had corrupted something, I don't know but I ended up doing a restore and then my download speeds were back to normal.  The restore operation re-installs Windows and it keeps a lot of your files but eliminates others so I have to re-install some.
Barbara, I can certainly understand being reluctant to drive until you feel safe to do so.  I hope you can get there soon.  After I got out of the hospital there was no way I would have been able to drive myself.  I am fortunate to have my BIL that was able to drive me to doctors appointments and testing.  Without his help I would have been in a fix.  I am able to drive myself now and with a walker I can manage to get around pretty well.

Hoping to make it through day #3 with no bloody nose...

Hoping to make it through day #3 with no bloody nose...

You sure will. And after day #7 it will all be history.

102 this morning.  Our high was 67° yesterday and it is supposed to be 65° today.  There is still a chance of rain in the forecast for Monday night and Tuesday but it has gone down from 83% to 60% and will probably go down more as we get closer and that is typical.
Don't forget that our time changes tonight and we go back on Standard time, at least in the USA, I don't know about India.  I hate the time change and wish Congress would get their act together and make DST permanent.

127 this very windy morning. The wind woke me up at 3AM it was so bad.

45° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 47°/32° with wind and snow showers.  I hate the wind!!

Thanks for mentioning the time change Wally.  I had no clue it was that time again. I'm with you I don't see the need for the changes any more.

Nopes. We have a single standard time in India. I'm not for clock resetting but definitely for 2 time zones for our country as the width in the upper half necessitates that.

90 this morning.  Our high yesterday was 68° but it is supposed to be warmer today with a predicted high of 74°.  Tomorrow it is going to get cooler and it is still looking like we may get rain Tuesday.
Well, as usual it is going to take a few days to get used to the time change.  I got up at 5:00 AM but it was actually 4:00 AM, UGH, it is going to be a longer day today!
