Bursting with Joy!


Hooray for the United States!!
We are finally out from under four insufferable years and finally have an ACTUAL PRESIDENT!! It's amazing!!
Steve and I were so happy all day we hardly knew what to do with ourselves! We celebrated with pancakes for breakfast and steak for dinner and even the weather celebrated by being brilliantly sunny and wonderful! Both of us went on walks and Steve took Pumpkin in her travel front-pack cage and she sang her little heart out with joy!
Starlink Sends a Green Light!
Just to make everything even better, we got an email yesterday inviting us to join Starlink's beta program!! Steve signed up to the waiting list on the first day the beta was announced back in October and we crossed our fingers. As time passed and coverage expanded, we whimpered and hoped that maybe we'd get into their program.
What is YOUR download speed?
Apparently the "normal" speed for people is 100mbs. We get 1.5mbs. But hey, it's better than when we moved here, 15 year ago, when it was .5mbs. Living in rural southern Oregon has its upside--it's gorgeous and next to wilderness but we pay the price in an utterly miserable connection to the internet.
Wearing a Hole in the Carpet While We Wait!
It will take anywhere between two and four weeks before we get our kit. Until then, I'm just going to forget about it. Well, I'm going to try, anyway. Immediately I'm having a hard time with the glaringly slow page-loads. It's hard to continue ignoring all the things we miss out on because our internet speed is too slow. Can't watch YouTube videos without a long wait. Can't enjoy animated gifs. Can't play silly online games that require a good connection. Streaming tv shows and movies? HAHAHAHAHAHAH…um, no. Well, let's hope it's closer to 14 days and not 30!!
Today's Picture
It's another outrageous dahlia blossom to show my feelings about turning the page to a bright new future for the US and for us too! :D (This dahlia was photographed at the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco back in 2016) Please stay safe and enjoy your day!

I loved the so very sincere smile of your new Vice president before she gave her oath.
My Internet connection is relatively slow, and I can´t get a better connection because the owner of the roof won´t give permission to anybody to get up there! But I do hope you´ll get your starlink very quickly and won´t get frustrated anymore.
Your flower is of course beautiful!
Wir haben zu Hause auch die Zeremonie angeschaut
Bonne soirée.
La flor es espléndida.
und Glückwunsch zu Herrn Biden, in der Hoffnug das es nun ruhiger und besser wird
Anyway, this is an exquisitely beautiful image...............the detail is amazing and I love the vibrant colour of the flower against the darker background. I love it..!!
I hope you manage to get a much better and faster internet speed. I'm lucky enough to have cable internet and rarely drop below 100mps (sorry) :-)
I've just checked my current download, which is coming in at 34mb, but when we lived on our farm our original connection speed with a phone line was 19.6kps! Even basic webpages wouldn't load and I guess that's why I formed the habit of uploading images too small (trying to break that habit now). :-) Thanks also for your very kind comments on my images.
