Welcome to my blog
If you enjoy finding a lot of different outlets for your creativity, then we may just be kindred spirits.
This blog is an outlet for my interest in miniatures, crochet, plastic canvas, and many other various arts and crafts.
I also love walking, taking digital photos, and most recently, have rediscovered an old love...bike riding! I purchased an amazing new bike, a comfy Townie by Electra this summer, and have been having a grand time exploring the area as though for the first time. It's like being a kid again!
If you enjoy any of these things too, pour a cup of coffee and tea, sit down, and join me.

Brand New Gaming Laptop, Acer Predator Helios Neo 16!
Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 |
I am so excited! My brand new Gaming laptop arrived in the mail today, and it's so cool. It's the big brother to my old gaming laptop, an Acer Nitro 5, which is now 7 years old. My old one has Windows 10 and can't upgrade to 11 because it's too old, and Windows 10 is being discontinued so there won't be any more updates.
My new Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 seems really cool. It already makes this old one seem so much slower. I love new electronics, but I hate transferring all of my photos, etc. That's a real drag. I bought One Drive so I can upload to the cloud but don't really know how to use it. I will have to learn.
My new laptop has great specs. Here they are:
Acer Predator Helios NEO 16" Gaming Laptop - Black (Intel Core i7-13700HX/1TB SSD/16GB RAM/RTX4060/Win11)
Model: PHN16-71-7884
Web Code: 17042194
It should run games well, and also be strong enough for video editing, which I need.
I am so happy about it.
I'll write more when I have used it more. I just wanted to pop in. I have an unboxing video coming.
