    If only life was as forgiving as the general. :)

    So what's everyone up to?

    Ordered $3000 worth of new furniture that was in my shopping cart, however it was the wrong cart. I had two with the same company. I wanted the other set I was looking at. Thankfully I noticed while casually reviewing the order email so I get to cancel it tomorrow and put in a new order. Good news is that the set I really want is $275 cheaper. Replacing broken down manual sofa and love seat with electric recline, with electric headrest, electric lumbar, and it
    has heat and massage too. Can't wait to try them out.

    It also gives me a chance to rearrange the living room, unfortunately I'm
    going to have to run wires for the TV and audio equipment along the edge of
    the wall.

    That sounds really nice. It's good to relax in a comfortable position. Good news here too, my wife's stress turned up negative and her heart is in good health. She's has a fractured spine and is due for surgery. I'm not sure if it's completely safe yet, but the doctor said there's no concerns as far as
    her heart goes.

    That's good news then. I hope the surgery goes well for her.

    So what's everyone up to?

    I was laid off from my last job & left in December. I found a new job in May and have been working from home. They haven't given me a whole lot to work on yet, and for the work they've asked me to work on, I've been running into issues constantly, so I

    Also a few months ago, I found some photo & video editing software from a company called Topaz Labs that uses AI to upscale photos & videos. With AI, the upscaled results look more clear & sharp than they would when enlarged with traditional software.
