Hello folks! I am nursing a sick Kindle. It just keeps freezing and I have , luckily, been able to coax it back to life, but I know it's on it's way out. So I went shopping on Amazon. What a disappointment!
It seems that I must have the 2013 or 2014 version Kindle Fire.
It has WiFi connection, as well as a selfie-camera, and has quick access to my favourite games and has stored in it some passwords that I no longer remember, I know I can always access our PC MasterCard account without going through the hassle of resetting a password that I will then forget again! And it has a backlit screen so you can read without glare and in low light. I love this little girlie! And it is also an e-reader which is supposed to be it's primary purpose.
So the "New-and-improved" versions no longer have cameras, are smaller (I like the Sizes NOW, thank-you), and unless you pay, what I consider mega bucks, it is strictly an e-reader - no WiFi connection.
POOPY!
So I resorted to buying a new cord to try to fix the fact that perhaps it's just not charging properly. But the battery runs down in hours now instead of days- it's getting old - like me, I suppose.
Well, another very "up-too-late" night. I hope I can find farmland (That would be "dreamland" except for the silly autocorrect) soon.
G'night!Last edited by avoncallingu; Wed, Jan 18th, 2017 at 01:37 AM.

avon, sure hope you can get that one fixed, or find a good replacement.
I have a Google Nexus 7 2013 2nd gen. 32gb tablet - it's absolutely amazing, does everything I want/need and more.
Today is the eve of Epiphany on the Julian calendar, I'm sad that it's the end of the Christmas cycle...
End of caroling, as well.
Hope everyone has a great day!

He looks so much like Jake, at least when he was a puppy.

Good morning, everyone....lazy day here, -2, heading up to +1....+!!! I can't remember a time when we had a + in January.
It feels and looks like spring out there, but {{{sob}}} I know it's just messing with me...
Looks like Doxies are Packers fans, too!!

I'm watching one of my very favourite shows, the Barrett-Jackson Classic Car Auction.
It's on Discovery Velocity, and there's a free preview this week. I've missed the auction the past couple of years.
For those of you that don't know about it, it runs from Tuesday - Sunday live from Scottsdale, Arizona.
The best time to watch, for the best cars, is Saturday evening, they call it the 'Salon'.
Cars that night go for hundreds of thousands - to a few million dollars.
I think it's so exciting, and I love dreaming.
This is one of my favourites, the Pierce Arrow.

DH LOVES this too! He sold cars as a career. I told him to imagine that I had given him $700,000 and pick his favourite.
But we decided to rent "Deepwater Horizon" instead.

@22hicks, wasn't the Pierce Arrow one of James Bonds cars in some movie or other? I'm not much of a car person, but gosh I loved those ol' low riders with the big fins in the 50s and the early 50s cars...those big steering wheels..hahaha!!
Although I've never formally expressed my aversion to 'camel day', I was very pleased to see your knocked out one.
Have a good night's sleep, everyone...sweet dreams!!
Ahem...there should be a pic here of Jenny sleeping. I went to the site you recommended, @Natalka, resized it, then copied it on here. If it's not here, I GIVE UP.Last edited by Lynn49; Thu, Jan 19th, 2017 at 09:25 AM.
