Customising

This morning’s chiropractic session with Eloise focussed strenuously on reducing the most painful area on my neck. This resulted in not needing a further session for another four weeks.

Afterwards I was rather tired and read more of Vanity Fair, until we enjoyed the family’s report on an engrossing visit to the New Forest Wildlife Centre where Ellie threw herself into playing with some of her contemporaries.

Later I decided to print this picture in various sizes- three each 7” x 5″ for the mothers; one A3 (297 x 420 mm); and finally a bigger one still.

My Epson SureColor P600 printer can be set for sizes up to A3+ (329 x 483 mm or 13″ x 19″) which I was able to produce with my previous Apple iMac that offered this choice in its control panel. I therefore had a box of that size papers which I haven’t been able to use. Becky spent some time customising the computer so that it now offers the larger size, making a great deal of difference.

This evening we all dined on Jackie’s lemon chicken with colourful savoury rice, chopped by Flo. The Culinary Queen and Ian both drank Hoegaarden and I drank more of the Carménère.

  1. The photo is so wonderful with the generations! I’m your family will enjoy having the photos. I’m glad that your neck pain has lessened, Derrick, I get how much it hurts as I have three herniated lower lumbar. Be careful with your neck!

  2. I am glad the chiropractic sessions are going well, and you are getting relief.

    That is a lovely photo of the four generations! I am glad Becky was able to help customize your computer for you.

  3. I’m so glad you printed that beautiful photo in various sizes! It IS frame-worthy! It will be such a beloved, important photo for Ellie! 🙂
    Yay for Ellie getting some playtime with her “peeps”/people-group!
    I’m so happy to hear your chiropractic sessions are going well!
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

  4. Sorry about your neck. That is always a bore. But if the expert announced a respite of four weeks, that’s good news. Very neat family photo. ????????

  5. I’m glad you found help for your neck. I am looking for help for my back which causes leg pains. I tried physical therapy and it made it worse. The joys of aging.

  6. That’s what I call a good chiropractor! (Probably helps that the client is a good too, and listens to instructions. FABULOUS classic photo that will be enjoyed for years – and generations – to come.

  7. I’m glad Becky sorted the computer problem for you. I like the sound of your large printer, it’s a while since I had one that printed A3. Gorgeous photo of the girls.

  8. I really enjoyed seeing all four generations in one picture, and a happy one at that. I’m glad you’ve optimized your printer for larger sizes. That makes all the difference. Like you, I’ve started seeing a chiropractor for neck pain. I’m noticing a difference, so I’m grateful for that, as I know you are with yours.
