How Weird

Remember a few weeks back when I posted about my browser going defuncted? My grandson put Opera on it, and, does fine as long as I have the A/C on, so it didn't heat up. I didn't use the laptop yesterday. Today I turned it on, and Microsoft Edge had done an update, and it was back up again. How weird! I am keeping Opera available just in case. I like using ME because it has all the sites I use available right there and I don't have to go to each individually.
How are you all doing? Melted from the heat yet? We might get a light rain tonight. It got cloudy last night but no rain. If there was any it was miniscule.

My browsers are all struggling. I did a Microsoft update yesterday, but I am blaming everything on the heat.

I do that as well. It's all this awful heats fault. I thought it weird that Microsoft did one today.

I'm used to it and like that I can put all the site icons on it that I use and bring them up easier.

We got rain this morning
but day is yet to be started and looking at the clouds we are likely to get rain again sometimes during day time.

Soon it should cool down for a couple of days.

I'm glad I don't use Windows anymore
Life has been so much easier and more efficient without it.
Less stress for sure

I have always used Windows. I can't see going elsewhere.

I thought that as well until I compared exactly what a good phone could do with what I did with my laptop.
As I didn't do much
Android won hands down
Then I found out stuff like I could print on a printer from the phone
Watch TV on the phone
I love my phone

Chrome keeps updating but nothing is having a problem... But we keep the house at 74F, too.
We MIGHT have rain/storms Thursday and Friday... We keep getting clouds at night but nothing falls.
We topped out today at 96F with a RealFeel at 106F... I'll be happy when the high drops back into the mid-80s late this week but am not looking forward to the predicted jump back into the mid-90s after the rain/storms move on.
