Trojan virus

Hello,

Yesterday the virus protection listed two Trojan Virus strands on the computer. Then some unknown virus protection came on, scanned without permission, stated their product should be purchased to eliminate this threat, and locked everything. Leroy proceeded to wipe the hard drive and reloaded most things. Luckily we had saved the majority at the end of the year, but it is still annoyingly time consuming to fix the problem. Luckily it was Leroy’s day off. Luckily he has done it before so it got faster. Luckily he is a patient man. Son Brian gave some tips to help prevent this from happening in the future. That gives us hope but still I have new resolves to backup things more frequently, especially pictures. Will I do it? Yes for a little while.

The computer screen is much less cluttered than it was and life does go on around us.

Leroy and I went to a movie last night. We both enjoyed it and laughed so that is a plus. Can life get better than shared enjoyment?

The church here is interviewing two people so we have had to have the house looking presentable and to leave for a while. It is easy to pick up, clean up, and adjust the inside. However on the outside are two clematis vines that we did not trim. There is some discussion going on as to the best time and how deeply to trim. For now there are brown leaves fluttering in the breeze around the front of the house. It does not bother me because I know the score; however, I have a powerful urge to leave a note explaining the reason for the leftover vegetation. And then there is the half brown fern upstairs. Seems that should be explained or justified. For now there is a lid on any explanations. Maybe someone will think we have a partial green thumb. Maybe they are more interested in looking at closet space so do not notice such externals.
