Always something or pity party 2

Computer problems only got bigger. :-(  After spending another hour plus on the phone with teck support trying to get the loaner computer to work with me we were partly successful.  We had to give up on mine because the power cord or the port for it was damaged.  Perhaps that was because I forgot I was plugged in one to many times and tried to make the 20 foot extension cord 25 feet long.  Dave had bought a spare battery and external charger for that very reason.
