I'll never get tired of pics of this special room in the woods! Any nature lover would love to spend time there. It's right out there in it, yet has all the comforts. DD, I said ALL the comforts, I don't think you forgot one thing! LOL Thanks for sharing your fantastic space, and the great tips like the Gorilla tape, I never would have guessed that the glass had any help with stability. ~tenderlee

Hi, Mike Thanks. It's been pretty busy weekend. My three kumquat trees (all in different variety ) have different metabolism... one is blooming like crazy, one just woke up and figured out it is time to start new grow, one is dying. Green Leaves drop and twigs die back. I searched up in internet, the symptom is not for any disease or pests, it is the root rot. This made repot decision easier. I just repotted this kumquat into gritty mix. Although it continues to loose leave and twig, but hopefully it will recover soon. This is my unknown named kumquat from China with very sweet fruit. I hate to loose it. My meyer lemon has few baby lemons on it and still puts out new growth. I am excited to see the lemons grow into larger size. My local grocery store had season end sales. The bark mulch I use for my gritty mix and 511 are on sale for $1 /2cf. I stock up a lot of them and stack them up to decompose a little more. This past weekend, I mixed big batches of 511 and gritty mix. Repotted my jasmine sambac "Grand Duke..." which just finished flowering. This was a cutting given to me last year from friend of mine. Mine survived over the winter pratically a stick, but started new grow this spring. My friend's plant died in winter so I need to grow my jasmie large enough to give him some cuttings. Moved all my Brugs. into 511 mix. They are all very happy, no more droopy leaves in the afternoon. I potted aout 1/4 of my plants with Gritty/511 in plastic. I am happy to recycle those plastic pots. I am a little heitate to move all plants into either 511 or gritty mix. I am evaluating the pros and cons. The gritty mix and 511 will reduce water retaintion , improve air circulation therefore less chance of root rot and improve root system and thus healthy plant. But it creats another problem... fertilizer and water waste. it is also harder to manage the fertilize timing. Every time I water/fertilizer the gritty mix/511 most of water with fertilizer in it come out at the bottom, which all goes to waste. It makes nearby grass grow much faster and greener than my plants. In winter time, when all the plants are inside, I must have a deep saucer under each plant in order to catch excess water.

in answer to can you use the sp2 then sp3 update cds yes you sure can but you must do them all in order sp1 sp2 and sp3 then you would have the remaining ones to do by batches. I just did this for a friend that needed help, it did not take that long once started. I had loaded all my programs on a thumbdrive so then just stuck that in and added from it my AV, various security programs, etc that I wanted on the pc all with out having to go online. Once it was ready I went online and got the various updates for the programs then windows updates by batch. I would use xmarks to save your bookmarks just install xmarks now to it and any of your other computers and sync them it will put all your bookmarks on your own webpage also so you can access your bookmarks from anywhere if traveling or using some other pc. Then just install xmarks on the pc after reinstall and tell it to sync up and there you go all your book marks will be back. IT can also back up your profile if you want it to. I can not help you with the other address book issues I do not use those you will likely have a lot of that old junk to remove if you use the original discs so add pc decrapifier to your tools and also app remover if there was an old AV on there that would need to be gone. PC Decrapifier Using AppRemover Putting everything on a thumbdrive is very handy and I keep one around never know when you have to help someone else. I luckily had it with me last weekend when I went to visit family, I had to use it to clean up my brother in laws laptop, he only had over 60 infections!!! other wise to save your bookmarks you would go to (firefox) Bookmarks tab, then organize bookmarks, then at the top you will see Import and Backup, select that the select the export option save that file.

I have a 1/2 hp craftsman garage door opener that is about nine years old. It worked fine until a month ago. The first thing i noticed was the wireless keypad quit working. Changed the battery and it still would not work. Another thing i noticed was that, even tho the sensor beams were operable (green light on), the light on the motor did not come on when i walked in the garage breaking the beam. Nor did i hear the relay clicking as before. Is this and the keypad problem related? All other functions of the opener, including the light (when the door opens)and remotes work ok. What is the fix?
