Brandau Becomes Shadow

Image
 You have met Brandau before. She is the cat that someone dropped off on Brandau Rd and she came to the  barn to live with the kittens. I gave her that name cause at one point the Cat Shoppe was interested in  taking her, they thought they had a home for her. This was before winter months and  I was unable to catch her. With that being said, I have always called her a her cause she appeared to have Tortoiseshell markings and sometime ago while reading up on Torties I learned that they are always females. Next~ was she fixed? No way for me  to tell. But with the kittens being fixed we felt that we should be safe. Chance we had to take.

Just in case you fellow bloggers have forgotten who I am .... take a look below! I am BACK! HAHA... COMPUTER problems! YUCK!

It always came back up... UNTIL the other day! It's booting up, screen just is not lighting up. It was suggested that I remove the battery and  put it back in. Even the internet suggested that. Well on ACER laptops the WHOLE back has to come off. I sit and unscrewed all those screws, went to lift the back off  only to have it stick in one area. Being a afraid to pull on it I put it back together. The yucky behavior of my laptop  took place on Thursday (at this point, I think  it was Thursday)! Anyway...I have another older  Acer that I had lent Caleb my grandson. Since he was not  uing it I requested Amber bring i
