i spread the sheets on the sewing room floor along the wall and began putting up the Sheetrock mud. This job went well and surprisingly used almost the whole bucket of plaster. Libbie walked with Anita while i did this work. Later in the afternoon I backed up the data files from my Dell laptop and replaced the hard drive with the new 2 Gig one I purchased earlier this month. I plugged the USB drive into the laptop and started it up. the drive contained the Win 10 operating system install image which i downloaded from Microsoft. You can do this from a legitimate copy of Windows which is what came with the laptop. Surprisingly everything went well including the install of all the drivers.
I went to bed around 11 PM while the files were being copied from the external backup drive onto the new internal hard drive. We had a good lesson with Robert covering our Tango routine. Dinner was tuna fish sandwiches on Pita bread that was left over from yesterday.
