I've decided to document all my repairs on Youtube for your viewing pleasure. Created this channel and shot my first episode today. Might not be the most exciting episode but it's a start. There will be many many more.

I don't think so. From what I have gathered talking to him, he made a paypal account to have his royalties sent to because using a bank account would mess up his ssi or some shit. And that is literally all he did. years and years ago... He said he never transferred money from it or anything.
Haven't gotten any further with this yet... Has anyone ever used any software to bring back old files off a hard drive that's been wiped clean and somewhat wrote over? It sounds like FBI shit but I know there has got to still be accessible information on it. And would information like saved login credentials even be recoverable? Looking for suggestions.
I recently wiped and reinstalled windows on a senior citizen's laptop. It was completely fucked. Anyways, I took it back to him and he said he wanted to access his e-mail and paypal account. At first I was thinking "ok... just type in paypal.com or gmail.com or whatever" but then he informed me he didn't know any of his usernames. I'm almost certain he didn't set up paypal so it was linked to his phone number. Paypal is what he is most worried about as there is money on it. Other than guessing and looking up the customer service number I haven't tried anything else. I'm not sure where to begin with this but I'm hoping his e-mail account is also on a utility bill or has been linked to maybe his bank account and that they could inform us as to what it is. He also insisted on paying $99 a year so he could maybe use power point. I have no more time today to help him with any of this but was wondering if anyone else has had similar issues dealing with forgetful old people... Suggestions?
Hello guys. It's been a crazy 24 hours for me. I changed a lot of how my daily life goes when I moved over the weekend. Having all the typical moving issues like trying to find stuff and keep track of things. Work went okay last night but there is a chance I will be moved against my will to first shift. If that happens I'll deal with it but it's just another hump in the road to get over. I'm glad I moved this last weekend because if I had changed shifts last week I probably would have been even more discombobulated and not this far along. Right now I feel like I'm walking a tight rope trying not to make a slip up. Had to recheck all my bills and even afterwards I found today that I forgot about one. This morning I went to my girlfriend's dad's apartment to give him back his laptop I reinstalled windows on for him and that went so so... I'll have to go back and help him remember his e-mail account and shit which is something I didn't know he didn't know... There was little hope of me doing anything with it the way it was and it's to late now. I'm sure I'll find a way to recover that information with him but I had to come back home and get ready for work today. Hoping I'll be faster working today than I was yesterday because I felt slow even though I probably sent out 70k lbs of product. Anyways, ttyl. I have shit to do.
First night living at my girlfriend's house went better than expected. I stayed up until 4am with my cats until they ate something and went to sleep because until then Zoey was following me around and trying to get through the door to meet the dogs and I didn't want to deal with that in the middle of the night. Going to take it easy today and slowly put stuff away as I wander around. Plugged in the deep freezer in the garage to see if it works. Threw a water bottle in it and will check later to see if it is an ice bottle. Going to make 1 more trip to my apartment this afternoon and grab work stuff for tomorrow and also my remotes because even though I brought the televisions yesterday I managed to forget the remotes. Anyways, it's almost 1:30 in the afternoon and I really need to eat some breakfast. TTYL
Woke up at the butt crack of dawn today and packed a bag of clothes and filled the rest of my car with cat stuff and cats. It's been a long fucking day to say the least. Things are going well though. The cats were super scared at first but Zoey has started adventuring around and thinks her new cat pad is the coolest thing ever. My other cat Tabby isn't as thrilled and crawled under a piece of wood and hasn't come out to eat or drink all day. Haven't introduced them to the dogs yet although Zoey followed me up the steps without me knowing and almost introduced herself. I'm kind of sad I missed it because she has never used steps before and I wanted to see. Anyways, the place is a fucking wreck at the moment and it will take a lot of work to get settled in but today was progress and that's for sure.
I'm getting real nervous and anxious about moving tomorrow. No matter how much I prepare I'll never feel prepared enough. Things are looking good on my end though. Praying for the best tomorrow.
Made a deposit at the bank. Filled up the car with gas. Renewed my vehicle registration and changed my address while I was at it. Packing to move, cleaning and throwing away unnecessary stuff. Made coffee #2 for the day.
I need to clean out my car. Pack up some cat stuff. Sweep their cat trees off. Pack some clothes for a couple days. Gather up their food and treats. Find their collars. The new kitty cat fountain I ordered came yesterday and I hope they like it. Tomorrow when I move them they probably will freak out and run away and hide. That's okay I suppose as I would too if I were a cat. But hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll feel comfortable enough that I can leave them there and go to work Monday. That's my hope.
Good morning. TGIF because I'm ready for the weekend. Not really though but I'm going to be anyways. Planning on moving tomorrow morning (my cats and I). I'll probably make a couple trips back and forth this weekend moving more stuff too. I technically have my apartment for the entire month of April... But I'm tired of dragging my feet around here. Anyways, right now I'm drinking coffee and trying to piece together a plan for today. Not much worth chatting about really.
It is really setting in today. My apartment wont be mine much longer and everyday it's getting emptier and emptier. This weekend will be the start of a new home. I'm as anxious as I am nervous and I'm going to miss my apartment. There is a funny feeling in my tummy.
I cleaned out some stuff and made a pile of things to move this weekend. It's not even close to a car load yet. But it's a start. Anyways, there really isn't much here and I could probably easily clean out my entire apartment in a matter of a few hours. Actually cleaning it might take another full day though.
Been paying $5.59 a pack for Camel Blue Shorts for the last few weeks by purchasing them in packs of 2 on hump day Wednesday and getting the Camel discount.
