Insomnia Cure

Not a lot is happening still! The weather is warm and pleasant, nights are extremely comfortable and plenty of breezes are keeping the weather ideal. Humidity remains well within normal ranges and not a factor. The air conditioner hasn't been on for a couple of weeks now.

Just reading this post will be a great cure for your insomnia!

We have an issue with the pavers around the pool. It appears we have a crook batch with the surface wearing off the paver allowing the aggregate to show through. This only occurs on many of the pavers in the open air, those under the pergola are perfect. The company we bought them through is back to the manufacturer looking for a remedy. One way out is for the pavers to be resurfaced. It is the aesthetics of the paver which is the problem, not splitting or anything nasty like that. I expect this to be a long and drawn out process.

Recently I bought (and then returned) an Image and Slide Scanner. It did not want to work too well on my Vista PC. Yesterday I ordered this one through another company. The beauty of this one is it does not need to be attached to a PC to work, therefore the need for the software to work harmoniously with the PC system is not an issue. This unit saves the scanned image onto a 'card' which can then be saved to your PC. Like many people our age, we have millions of slides which now can be easily scanned into the PC for easy access.

Several representatives from awning suppliers in our area will be visiting our place early next week to give us 'quotes' for a blind to block off the end of the pergola
