Yesterday I spilled my coffee right on my laptop keyboard!! It won’t even come on. That would be rice you see on my keyboard. I don’t have much confidence that it will work. I do everything on my laptop. I avoid using my iPhone whenever possible.
So it’s going to take a few days for me to get back full strength. For one thing I can’t type my my thumbs! I learned how to type in 1969 okay?
Fortunately, I have several posts scheduled ahead of time, but I am having a difficult time trying to read, like, and comment on your posts using my phone.
Please be patient with me. I may have to buy a new computer. Yikes!
Love, Cindy
I’m really sorry Cindy. That’s a huge, and unwanted, expense.

Thank you. It’s probably time for a new one anyway. That’s what I’m telling myself. 🧐

Hmm, you might want to lose the rice and try turning this upside down and taking off the covering to allow air in and moisture out. Just be careful about poking around till it is nice and dry. Maybe a hair drier on a low heat to give it some air flow or at least a small fan. The rice can’t really pull enough of the moisture straight up through the keys.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll try the hair dryer.

Sorry to hear about the mishap, Cindy. If you do end up getting a new laptop, rule of thumb is NEVER have liquids of any kind next to the laptop. Happens to the best of us, trust me! Blessings!

I felt strange hitting the “like” button. I should spill coffee on mine (after I backup on a separate drive). There are 4 word press sites my computer freezes on as it’s very outdated and slow. Hang in there.

My laptop is 10 years old so it’s probably time for a new one. Things don’t last forever.

Only us in heaven with Jesus lasts forever! And I’m glad you told me it was rice on your keyboard, at first glance it looked like maggots, and I had a “moment!” It was probably because I had not had my coffee yet!

Mine is 9 years old so it’s probably time to be replaced.
