I couldn't get the fingerprint reader to work so I'm loading Ubuntu. Only a nerd would know what I'm talking about, but it's a real struggle. I really don't want to learn Ubuntu but i'll have to.

Chronicling life in Sac City, Iowa. Fixing old laptop computers, and prepping for the financial collapse.

We're supposed to get 2 to 4 inches of snow by tomorrow. I'll be shoveling tonight and maybe tomorrow.
I'm watching a You/tube segment about Bitcoin. They are making the case for taking self-custody. I agree with them bu I have to get my Ledger wallet working.

Yesterday, I shoveled North of the Rec Center, next to Main Street. It was cold and hard. But I got it done.
Today. Sara is coming at 10:00. I'll get her to help with my time card. It's messed up.
It's warming up so maybe I'll do more shoveling today. We'll see. That's all for now.

I'll I went to the caucus last night. It was cold and I only went up to 40 mph. My eyesight is getting bad so that was as fast as I felt like driving at night.
Trump won on the first ballot. I volunteered to be a delegate to the convention in Des Moines'. I doubt that I'll get the job.
Vivek dropped out this morning but I hope he'll be /trump's vice president.
I need to make a couple of telephone calls.
Later
The Villager ( a restaurant that opens at 6:00) is open again. They were closed because of the weather.
I gave Sharon a ride to work and swung by the antique store to see if it needed to be shoveled. It didn't.
Now I need to replace my right headlamp. The car parts place opens at 8:00 and I have a meeting with my gambling counselor at 8:30.
So I'll be busy this morning. I need a nap right now.
Later.
My car's thermometer said it was -23 this morning. Weaterbug said it was -18. The car was too cold to work well.
I had to pick up Sharon this morning (her car didn't work). I'm getting a lot of use of the Artic parka.
The car doors aren't working well. The car thinks they are;t closing. I'll try putting WD-40 on them to loosen them up.
I need to replace my headlamp (right side) before I go to the caucus tomorrow. I'll be supporting Vivek.
Later
Sharon called me and needed a ride. Her car is stuck in the snow.She'll pay me to get it out but I have to do my place as well; the rec center too. The wind and snow have tapered off but I still have to deal with last night's drifts.
I better get busy. I can warm up later.
