Oh my.... as if my situation wasn't bad enough learning how to use this new fan dangled Windows 10, I get a wonderful big order for some Polly Minick patterns and my Computer doesn't support my printer. It is from my printer that I enlarge pattern designs and nothing happened this morning when trying.
Finally I did some googling and learned all I needed to do was download a new driver from HP. HUH? ...that's all? But do you know how long it took me to research and find this out and THEN learn how to do it? Anyway, here's what's on the menu for drawing first, Lady Liberty and Sam patterns.
And the others are huge too: Mermaid, the pattern Crossed Flags which is in Polly's book Victory Girls, and Sand pails Gifts from the Sea. That lady certainly does go in for big projects but guess that makes her happy and we ALL know we are happy when we're hooking. Plus she is making me happy because I can make a few pennies to spend on more wool and help pay for rug camp.
Hope you have a good evening everyone. I'm NOW finally going to sit beside my boy Ben and hook. He feels like an abandoned dog and it breaks my heart to hear him cry when he wants me in the room with him.

Yet another 35 minute ride to the next state over to return the new monitor since the problem was a dead PC and my old monitor still works fine with the new computer. Since I'm still struggling with learning Windows 10 decided to buy this book to help. Hey, I was really able to post a picture this time...yippee.
Anyway, I looked thru 4 Windows 10 'how-to' books: Windows 10 for Dummies, Windows 10 for Senior Dummies (I actually fit in the title), and another called My Windows 10. But the one I purchased actually shows a visual of what I will see, and in color. Since I'm a visual learner decided to get this one.
Will give myself another half hour on the computer and then I MUST sit near my boy Ben as he has felt neglected this last week. He wants his mommy back. He's happy with my hooking because at least I'm sitting by his side.
Hope you have a good weekend.
