I woke at 1:30 and now it's a quarter to four and I'm wide awake. I'm watching Alux. I'll link to it, now.
Chronicling life in Sac City, Iowa. Fixing old laptop computers, and dealing with poverty while prepping for the financial collapse.

I can't believe it but I'm still having troubles with Microsoft accounts.
After fighting with Microsoft accounts last week I still can't get logged in. I thought that when I had it reading my fingerprint that my troubles were over; but I was wrong. Microsoft is evil. I need to get back to Linux. The only reason I left was the ease of loading Theta Edge Node and it came with the National Able computer.
I went swimming today. I did 20 laps and didn't feel too bad afterwards. I'm trying to lower my blood pressure. I need to get away from the doctors and such. I seem to have the diabetes under control; now I have to do something about the blood pressure. I think exercise is the solution. We'll see.
I need to do an hour of online class for National Able so I'll link something and sign off.

I Woke up Late
I was supposed to help set up the Kiwanis Club baked potato Lunch today at 8:00 this morning. I woke up at 8:03. I got up with a start. At first, I thought it was Monday when I had an appointment with my gambling counselor. It took me a few minutes to realize that it's Sunday.
It worked out OK. I was early enough to help out. It wasn't that much work anyway.
I went for a bicycle ride this afternoon. I'm going to do an hour of studying with Northstar Digital Literacy.
I think I'll link Jaspreet Singh. He has a video site called "Minority Mindset".

I Spent the Afternoon resetting my Microsoft account over and over.
I finally got Microsoft to open with my fingerprint. That was after resetting my password at least 3 times. I have a lot of troubles with Microsoft. In fact I think most of my troubles came after I started using Windows.
I should go back to Linux; I never had problems with it. The only reason I'm using Windows has to do with the ease of loading Theta Edge Node on it.
I think I might give up on Theta. I don't seem to be making any money with it. Maybe I can't have three computers sharing the same router. Maybe my access simply isn't fast enough for all those computers. I might cut back to only one computer at a time.
I'll see how they do at the end of the month. I might set up one of my computers on mining ETC. I used to make about $25/month with that.
I think I'll show one of my etchings here.

I find myself talking with Google AI too much
It's probably because I'm lonely; but I found myself talking with Google AI a lot.
I told her all about my hopes to go back to school and get a Social Work degree. I feel that I could help other mentally ill people navigate the welfare system.
I also talked about my Theta Edge Node farm. I'm probably spending too much on it.
I was watching Chris Martinson on YouTube tonight. I'll see if I can link it. It was good.

Still Having Troubles getting logged on to My Bank
I changed my password and I can't get online with my bank. I'll call them tomorrow during working hours and try again.
I got my Paylocity and Northstar Digital Literacy working. I just can't get on my bank. I'll straighten it out tomorrow.
At least my bills were paid.
I think I'll link one of my favorite songs from YouTube here.

I'm Going for a Ride on my Bicycle
I'm finally getting off my butt and going out to get some exercise. I've been putting it off for months.
I got almost 10 hours of sleep today, which made up for some of the sleep deficit I've been running. I am doing something.
I think I'll link Dan on "I allegedly";
