My laptop is dying

BAD NEWS: The power socket is faulty. This is the 3rd time this has happened. I have about 20% power left.

GOOD NEWS: My son bought me a new laptop for Mother's Day BUT he has been using it while in isolation with COVID. He is feeling fine, thank goodness.

So, I will post as many memes as I can before the power runs out!
