Saved by the Geniuses of EJ Phone Repair

Rosa 'Mrs. Oakley Fisher' & Hosta 'First Frost' 8 June 2026

 

Today June 8, the folks at EJ Phone Repair solved the problem of not being able to place photographs in my blog. Mike came to my house and in under 3 minutes solved the matter. It seems that my Google Blogger was no longer compatible with my Firefox Blogger. He switched it to Google Chrome and voilà.

For many days I was completely depressed and felt like my life was just waiting to die. More than ever I was realizing that in my daily tasks writing my blog is an element of stability. My blog, particularly now in the gardening season, enables me to place my plant scans as an excuse to write something.

At first Mike and Chris at EJ Phone Repair suspected that my 22-year-old Dell CRT monitor was the problem. They lent me a 28 inch wide Acer monitor. The problem persisted. One it was solved they sold me the splendid 28 inch wide Acer for little money. While this blog is being placed June 8 I am writing this June 9.

Today I had the pleasure of taking my Dell monitor to Kent Street where I gave it a fond goodbye as it served me well. The new Acer has been previously calibrated for colour but I will be hiring a gentleman named Harris to calibrate the monitor, my scanner and printer shortly. 

I am a happy man.
