<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8162248, member: 110350&quot;]Is anyone planning to be at NYINC on Friday in the early afternoon? If I do go, that&#039;s when I&#039;ll be there. Judging from how I feel today, there&#039;s no way I&#039;ll be ready to go by tomorrow, especially not for a $125 entrance fee. (It&#039;s not like I&#039;m in the market for the sort of high-end coins that motivate people to go tomorrow anyway.) The left eye is beginning to clear up a little, but only for short periods of time. So mostly I keep it closed. If I open both eyes at the same time, the dissonance and discombobulation make me feel physically ill. So if I&#039;m there, I&#039;ll be the short woman with the left lens of her eyeglasses removed, and her left eye mostly closed! And probably double-masked, to do my best to avoid getting Omicron and testing positive next week, which would mean having to postpone surgery on the other eye. I&#039;d rather get it over with.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I&#039;ll still be happy to say hi to any fellow members who are there!</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: Coincidentally, my old desktop, a Dell Inspiron 620, finally died the other day after 10 years: I accidentally turned off the power while cleaning the tower (ironically enough), and no matter what procedures I followed the power would not turn back on. I decided that it wasn&#039;t worth spending money to try to fix a computer that&#039;s so old. So for a few days I only had my phone and couldn&#039;t really post here. My new desktop, a Dell Inspiron 3880, arrived yesterday and I installed it last night, so I can sort of post again. It&#039;s a bit difficult getting used to Windows 11 after using Windows 7 all these years and skipping Windows 10 entirely. My main concern is being able to transfer the contents of my old hard drive, which actually has more than 20 years of files and photos on it, from my previous computer as well as the one that just died. Including all my photos (including of coins), and my personal catalog and every other Word document created since 2000. Including a lot of stuff my son wrote as a child that I wouldn&#039;t want to lose. I&#039;ve ordered an external hard drive enclosure so I can try to do the transfer through one of the USB 3.2 ports on the new computer. It&#039;s supposed to arrive tomorrow. I know that I could recreate the catalog descriptions if I had to, and most of my photos have either been posted here or uploaded to the cloud to Google Drive or Dropbox at some point. But it would be a real pain. So fingers crossed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
