My Wii Works!!!

I was debating. Should I do a month a day until I am caught up on my story? Or should I alternate with other stuff. Alternating won. My posts yesterday were really heavy. I need to lighten stuff up. I am a naturally light and happy person.

I slept!!! (queue chorus of angels) And it was awesome. It was not a perfect night. I fell asleep in my chair and it was one of those nights when I fall asleep and my body turns to lead that molds into the chair and I can't move it. But my husband wanted to watch Monday Night Football. I can sleep through dramas and action movies. I actually sleep through action the best. Too many explosions and I am snoring. But I cannot sleep through Football and Auto Racing is even worse. Those engines revving wake me up as a grumpy monster. So, he was sweetly (grrr) persuading me to go to my bed. That was around 8pm. I didn't put in my ripple retainer for sleep apnea and grinding my teeth. I woke up at 1:30am in so much pain. The pain was in my neck and my right shoulder. I had surgery to put in a port in the right side of my chest 5 days ago. I came out of my room. I took 800mg Ibuprofen and 175mg Carisoprodol. I put Lidocaine cream on my port and then topped it off with an ice pack. I got comfy in my recliner and went back to sleep. It didn't take more than 30 minutes. Normally I would have been awake for the day some time between 2 and 4am. I didn't wake up until 6:55am. Not only that I felt refreshed. Oh, it was so nice.

So, here is my uplifting story today!!!!
Yesterday I was watching Cookie Swirl C on YouTube with my granddaughters. We watch 2 to 3 episodes a day. https://www.youtube.com/user/CookieSwirlC  Amanda is 6 and she loves the ones where Cookie is playing a video game. So, I am watching and thinking, hey! I have time to play Wii! It was like when you get inspiration for an amazing new invention. So, after the 3rd episode I said that was enough and sent the girls upstairs. I got out my Wii remotes. The batteries were corroded. I cleaned them up and put in new batteries. I turned on the Wii. Nothing happened. I played around with the settings on the receiver. Nothing. I got out the TV remote. I got it to where the Wii was trying to shine through but it was black and white and fuzzy. I tried to use my controller. It wouldn't work! This was frustrating but I was determined! I was worried the controllers were ruined from the corrosion. What if the Wii didn't work anymore because I quit playing?? I googled and learned how to sync my remotes. They worked!! Yay!!!

Then I started looking at the back of the TV, following cords to see where they were going, plugging
and unplugging cords. Nothing was working. I returned to google and put in Why is my Wii Black and
White and Fuzzy. I found a YouTube video!!! I love YouTube!

Tada!! We are back in business. I have 2 Zelda games that I never finished because I was busy working, going to school, being a Mom, Wife, Granny, etc.

I decided to play Twilight Princess. My journey was saved. I last played in February 2012. I tried to pick up where I left off but I couldn't remember how to do anything. So, I created a new profile. I named it Susie. I was trying to name my horse Horsie but accidentally saved it as Hors. I should have left it as Epona. Oh well. So, Hors and I started our journey by herding some goats. That was enough. It was fun. :)
