Glad I could bring a smile to your face. I'm doing okay. Too much going on in my life. I hope you and your family are doing well. Those girls must be all grown up!

Update: Mom has not had a very good 2021. Since April she has been have many cognitive and physical issues. The worst episode happened two weeks ago. At that time, the family sadly started hospice. She continues to have good days and bad days. The bad days are outnumbering the good. Please keep her and my family in your thoughts and prayers.

1) "anyone" noticed 2) I'm not much of a blogger.

I am not a judge of music, but I listened all the way through. Then I went searching for more things that you may have posted there. That says a lot right there. Is Warm Sand Blue Horizon your work, as well?

When do you have time for all those sites???!!!

Hi Parabellum!! I stop in now and again. Then life takes over and I end up drowning in work. That old saying about all work and no play.... What have you been up to? @ Cpl, I used to have WK's phone number, but lost it during some phone upgrade, I'm sure.

Hi die7 This is my personal computer. The RAM issue was happening before I installed Webroot. I was running AVG at the time, and when that expired I turned to WebRoot. I am actually quite satisfied with WebRoot; have used it professionally for years. When our company was hit with a cryptovirus, we didn't lose a thing due to webroot being able to neutralize and restore our files. That was the only program that identified the virus. Thank you for your advice.

I work for a regional medical society. What are your concerns?

@Dannik, that is what did the trick. Thank you for that suggestion! So I now have it turned off. If the RAM maxes out again, I will be able to actually do a real reboot!

I never heard of hybrid shutdown! In reading about it, changing this would definitely clear the memory upon shutting down. However, when I go to my settings, I am not given the option to change it. grrr Will look into it some more. Thanks, Alex!

Thanks, Wombat. I will try to reseat and/or move the RAM to different slots. I'm not getting any beep codes.

I'm running a Windows 10 64-bit OS, Intel Core i5-6600K, 3.50GHz processor with 16 GB RAM. Periodically my system will run extremely slow. In checking task manager, I would find that the RAM will be maxed out (98%), but the CPU and disk drive will be less than 10%. I will not have any programs open. The process that is using the most memory would be display fusion at 47 MB. The total of usage comes nowhere close to 16 GB. The only way I can get the system back to normal is to turn it off for about 2 days. This is problematic when trying to work remotely. In the research I've done it could be a virus or drive incompatibility. I'm running webroot anti-virus and have done all updates on my system. Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to prevent it from happening? Could it be a sign that RAM is failing? I can post images the next time it happens, if that may be helpful.

Hey all My 11 year old grandson has picked up playing Ghost Recon on the Xbox and really enjoying it. Can you remind me if there is an option to play in first person? If I recall correctly, it is only first person when you zoom in. I did a search but came up with a "million" results. lol

If you put a cup in the middle of one of the plates in the microwave, you can stack another plate on top of the glass to help heat things up quicker. Just make sure everything you use is microwave safe! ♣♣

Why mess with a good thing? LOL

Harelip! Man, you just dropped off the face of the earth! Glad you are still kicking. Zebb! Another blast from the past. So good to see more familiar faces. Stay safe, guys!

Binder clips come in handy for many things. Here is one idea.

Save money on your Amazon Prime membership!

When traveling, and you need a toothbrush holder, flip a paper cup upside down and poke a hole through the middle!

No need to buy bookmarks from stores!

Let me see what else I can find.

Hear, hear! 🍻

Sorry I'm late to this topic. I'm not considered essential, but I'm still working...only from home (most of the time). It's been crazy getting everyone set up with laptops and the capability of logging into our server, while at the same time having to still do my work. I've been putting in 12+ hour days. Stay safe!
