this morning I set up for a FaceTime meeting with a friend to see if we could connect a portable drive to her Mac…

we’d gone shopping for it a number of weeks ago and planned to meet in person to get it connected…

lots of fun as we tried to figure it out from a distance, lol… I know how the drive works but don’t have a clue about Macs…

we think we got it sorted out after a number of bumps in the road;-)..

we also talked about Google Photos, which I’ve been using for quite some time… it is free and easy to access from my phone or the computer… it is simple to make albums and to put photos back onto my phone if I need/want them…

spent some time proofing a document for my daughter, worked on my recipe book a bit and watched a few PVRd shows…

later I baked sweet potato fries… fried up some pickerel breaded with crushed potato chips… and made a tartar sauce…

it was all delicious and I enjoyed every bite…

spent an hour or so this morning moving pictures in my Google Photos into albums… I really need to do this more often once I’ve got my Albums sorted out so that it doesn’t take so long…

just about the time I finished I got a text from a friend who wanted to do some shopping for an external drive and maybe spend a bit of time learning a few things about her iPhone…

I did some research on best deals and when she picked me up we headed to Staples to purchase the drive… it was a great deal, she got a 2 terabyte backup for the same amount I paid for 1 terabyte in September;-)…

we learned about a new offering they have… $20/month for a year for online support for up to 5 devices… sounds like it might be a great program for those who don’t have access to their own computer geek…

from there we went for lunch at Za Pizza Bistro… delicious, and I had half to bring home for tomorrow’s supper…

once we got home we spent another hour or so going over some tips and tricks for the iPhone… we’ve already scheduled our next time to play together…

after she left I wrote out notes about all the things we covered and sent the info off to her…

helping others with technology makes me very happy…
