My HP laptop is almost perfect, with lots of power, memory and storage space. Its only shortcoming is the keyboard. It has silver keys with dark grey letters on them.

Tornado Warnings
It’s usually quiet while I work from home, which makes it easier to concentrate on getting things done. There was lots of noise last Sunday though, when our phones blasted out a couple of tornado warnings! How many more things do we have to worry about in 2020?
