been learning new things in the last few days and am pretty pleased with myself, lol…

I figured out how to change the clock in the car… 

pretty simple actually… I would never have been able to do that before…

even better was the fact that I sorted out the remote in the basement… 

  
there are three down there but the middle one is the special one which does everything except pour tea… 

of course the problem has always been that if it wasn’t set on the tv I could never get it back there… it is also connected to the Wii and a video player and Netflix and I’m not sure what else… 

the little boys change it over to the Wii sometimes and forget to put it back… then I struggle for ages trying to get the morning show to come on that I watch as I walk on the treadmill… end up calling my kids to walk me through the process to get it working again…

this time my son-in-law thought there might be something wrong with the remote itself…

after a bit of work I figured out how to open the back, find appropriate batteries, change them and get the cover back on…

then it couldn’t find the tv… finally figured out that I needed to use one of the other remotes to set the input to the proper thing…

and it worked… did it all myself…

my beloved would have been so proud…
