patty, what is your Internet setup? Something that doesn't allow a wired/WiFi router to be attached to the modem? I've had to use my phone as a mobile hotspot during power outages in order to use the tablet or laptop but I've never had a separate WiFi hotspot device. Good luck setting it up. I used to do crosswords but in the last few years it has been jigsaw puzzles. They have the same meditative effect, especially when paired with an audio book. Yesterday while looking at puzzles at Goodwill I spotted a puzzle I've previously worked and my mind flashed back to the Inspector Gamache mystery I was listening to at the time.

Vacuuming the front room has stirred enough dust to result in needing Sudafed.
