Let’s Be Careful Out There . . .
Jan was still a little under the weather today, so once again it was a stay-at-home day for us both. But very, very nice, anyway.
Our weather has been really great the last few days, with day temps in the 70’s and low 80’s, and lows in the mid-50’s. And it looks like its going to hold until we leave for Lake Conroe Sunday morning.

i may have figured out the HDMI problem on my new computer. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago when I was setting up my new computer, I could not get the HDMI output to HDMI output to our TV.
We normally use this output to view computer stuff and stream movies to our big screen TV for us both to watch. All we have to do is to press one button on the TV remote, and we’re watch and listening to the computer on our TV.
But when I tried to set this up on the new one, just plugging in the HDMI cable to the computer, not only didn’t it work, it kill the computer output to the monitor as well.
So after thinking about it for a while, I decided to download new drivers and see if that would help. But when I went online, the specs said that the video card, a Radeon 7470, didn’t have a DVI port and a HDMI port, but instead, has a DVI port and a DisplayPort.
Apparently you can plug a HDMI connector into a DisplayPort, but it just won’t work. But an inexpensive ($13) adapter is available on Amazon, so I have one on the way. And I’ll know Saturday night how it’s going to work.
The website stuff has slowed down, trying to finish up all the loose ends. Like many things, the first 90% takes 10% of the time, and last 10% of the project, takes the remaining 90% of the time. Plus as usual, I still waiting on content from the client.
For dinner Jan whipped up what she called a ‘Cupboard Casserole’, made from seeing what she has in the pantry, and then combining it with previously cooked chicken breasts
This time she used a can of kernel corn, a can of black beans, a can of diced tomatoes, a can of Rotel Habanero Tomatoes, and a jar of origin-unknown hot sauce. Jan layered the ingredients with pieces of chicken breasts and corn tortillas. After she covered it in shredded cheese, she popped it in the convection oven for about 40 minutes at 350°.
Along with a salad with some of Jan’s homemade lime salad dressing and grilled French bread, it made for a great meal, quick, easy, and delicious.
