Thankful Tuesday......

Mom and I are very thankful for a smart young man who knows all about computers at her work.  Last weekend (11/6) Big Gray started giving us crazy messages.  Then it would start a fancy, fast, countdown on the percentage of the drive it was checking. It was still running but Mom figured it might be getting sick. She was very glad she had prepared 7 days of post ahead time. Mom was finally able to write the entire message.  On November 8th she gave the message to a computer geek very smart young man at her work. He said lots of words that sounded like we might have to kick it to the curb have a memorial service for the Big Gray. She became rather frantic and must have looked faint because he said bring the Big Gray to him so that he could give it a physical exam run some diagnostics on it.
When it comes to the innards of the Big Gray, Mom is clueless and I take a naps.
She worries enough for both of us.

I'm happy to report the Big Gray is A OK.  Here I am, once again, helping Mom
 connect the dots cables to the right port.

Mom this one is purple it goes in the purple port not the yellow port.

Mom and I are very happy to have our life line to blogland back home safely!!!

  3. Hi Madi & Mom,

    We are very happy to hear that Big Gray responded to treatment and is fully recovered. It is always good to have a computer geek as a friend, you never know when a tech crisis might arise.

    And you sweet Madi, your talents never cease to amaze us. The next time we need to hook up computer wiring would you be willing to share you skills, we will compensate you for your time with catnip and treats.

    Purrs & Lots of Hugs,
    Cindi Lou and J

  9. Oh, I'm so glad that Big Gray is OK. What a scary time. We are so dependent on this hardware and take it for granted until it acts up. I have to tell Blog Mom to make sure she has all the photos of me, Lola, safely backed up. I don't think she does.

    lotsa licks, Lola

  10. Whew! It's always most nerve wracking when the computer gets sick. My mom actually gets a little bit twitchy! I'm also most thankful that Big Gray made it through and is back home.

  12. Oh Madsters, you are one smart kitteh!! It's good to help the beans sometimes with these technical things (which are so easy for us), but the rest of the time it is best to let them think they are smarter than we are....it's the least we can do since they do give us good food and lots of love, right? Yeah. Purrs!! Glad you are 'back on the air'!! Lautrec and Tiny and Ellwood

  18. Hi Madi
    Our Mom doesn't know a whit about computers either.
    And she has learned to do our post ahead of time too.
    She has a heck of a time keeping up with all the stuff that needs to be updated on the computer. Like Adobe has a new update today, so if you have Adobe be sure to do the update Madi.
    We are glad Big Gray is A-OK.
