Day 3548

 I woke up at 7:30, played games, and then got up to feed the cats and have breakfast.  Ellen took Abby for her walk.

I decided that I need to accomplish things today, so after a little surfing I went out to the shed to work on the 6x6 lights.  I tested 14 of the LEDs that I'm going to be using (6 left).  Then I installed them all in the body.  I hit a wall trying to figure out how to connect them, so I decided to go inside and do something else.

I made sure that the computer was up to date and then I started the Windows 11 install.  It took hours.  True to form the last 2% of the download and the last 2% of the install took a lot of time.  I surfed on my phone and Ellen watched chick flicks while it was installing.  One good thing was that while I was waiting I figured out how I want to do the 6x6 light wiring.

We needed ass wipe, cereal, milk, bananas, and apples so we went to Wally World.  It was a short specialized trip.  The vet called on the way and said that Cooper needs a piss test.  One of his kidney values is high.  We're taking him in tomorrow. 

When the install finished I spent some time getting things to look the way I like it.  It wasn't easy and I quit after a while.  The chick flick was over, so I ate lunch and watched videos.

YouTube had a NFL game on live.  I watched part of it, but of course I got bored and went back to videos.  When I got something frozen for dinner I discovered that Ellen had left the freezer door ajar.  Things were half thawed.  There was condensation on the ceiling a long with massive amounts of frost on the back wall.  I took everything out and spent 20 minutes scraping the frost off.  I got a lot of it, but not all.  Then I put everything back.  Hopefully nothing was ruined.

Eventually I went back to coercing Windows 11 into looking like I want.  I got almost everything done.  I think that one of the things that I want to do can't be done in Windows 11.  I ran out of desire to try to make it happen.  Some of the YouTube videos don't match the screens that I see on my laptop.
