Well, kids, not sure when I’ll be back to posting regularly.  I turned on the computer and it started a “Fixing (C:) Stage 1” thing.  Currently, the ETA for finishing is 3:33:26….and growing.  I’m typing this from my phone.  From looking into it, I see this process can take a VERY long time (now up to 3:42:18).  So when this is done IF I can post then, I’ll do so.  Might just be time to break down and buy a new laptop (I started using this one about 2017 or do I think, maybe a bit sooner).   But when j can post again I will.  

Wish me luck!
