Learning new things



Today I headed out into the cold with my camera to see if I could get some photos.  My intention was to play with the SD card and the Transformer Prime, and figure out how to upload them to various sites.  At first the camera would not go on.  Now, I prefer rechargeable batteries for the camera as I've discovered that I can take more photos.  However, time was of the essence and I didn't know where they were, so decided to use disposable batteries.  I played with those for awhile, and then figured out that the camera would not go on, because I was trying to turn it on with the wrong button.  Once I got it on, the screen displayed a "low battery" message  I finally found three batteries that would work.  I would have liked to go to the pond at the school, but I was limited on time as I had to open the flower shop.  I found a nice youtube video that told me about SD adaptors and micro SDs,  how to insert the card and most importantly how to find the photos in the files.  I watched it twice.   By some miraculous occurrence, I discovered that the photos were under the  heading 100NVTIM in the gallery, and from there, it's a piece of cake to upload, providing that I use one browser for photos and another for writing script.

Moving on....After work, Iwent to the fish store.  It turned out that the flourescent bulb was black at both ends and burnt out, an easy fix for the associate at the shop.  And as long as I was there, I decided to purchase some fish.  I had one lonely catfish, and feeling sorry for her, I bought her 2 friends.  The 3 catfish ate all my other fish.  Explaining this to the young man at the store, he suggested that I buy some groupies and a blue fish.  The groupies are fast and the blue fish is big, so hopefully they will not be sushi for the hungry catfish.
