Your April 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar is ready!

Good news! Your April 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar will not only honor this special season, but also, this year especially, bring a much-needed sense of calm. Spring IS coming, but around here we’re still getting periods of snow, and most spring color has yet to arrive. But close inspection hints at the arrival of those colors we crave, and I know it’ll be SOON!

My monthly desktop wallpaper & calendar offers you a pretty seasonal picture to brighten your computer monitor. But that’s not all. It also includes a handy monthly calendar and serves as a cheat-sheet reference to PDF’s and websites you may want to know about and access.  And it’s even FREE to download, so please don’t hesitate to share this page with your friends and family.

How to download & install your April 2020 wallpaper/calendar

Note: You’ll probably want to consult your own computer operating system’s installation instructions, but installing the background image on my Windows 10 system takes just 3 quick steps – and less than a minute. It’s super-duper easy-peasy! 

Here’s how you can (probably) do it, too.

    1. Start by left-clicking right here and the full-resolution image should pop up or open in a new tab. Then right click on the image and save it to your hard drive.
    2. Once the file has been downloaded, named and saved, click on your saved image to open it. 
    3. Once open, right-click on the image and select “Set as” > “Set as Background”….. then right-click again and select “Set as” > “Set as Lock screen”. And poof! That’s all there is to it! (For convenience, I recommend you install this on both your desktop system and your laptop. Assuming you still have both these days, of course!)

Tips for other operating systems:

And in case you may have an operating system OTHER than Windows 10, you may find these installation tips helpful:

  1. Windows 10, 8.1 or 7: http://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-customize-desktop-background-windows 
  2. Apple Mac: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-the-Desktop-Background-on-an-Apple-Macintosh-Computer 

Finally, please keep in mind that the format of my monthly picture is designed for most modern-day 16:9 monitors (a common format for monitors and HD TV’s since about 2009), oriented in landscape format. (Typically 1920 x 1080 pixels.) If you’re working with an older monitor (and/or one that is more square-ish in format), or your monitor is set up in portrait format or some other variation, the picture may not work for you.

Shucks! And I’m real sorry about that!

Good news! Your March 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar is ready to bring a riot of color to your computer monitor – to tide us all over until the landscaping outside finally catches up! Around here it’s looking a little drab with nary a hint of blossoms or leaves yet. But SOON! I know it’ll be SOON!

Good news! Your February 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar is ready to bring some cheerful color to your monitor. And along with that, maybe even some hope in your heart that spring might actually arrive eventually! For me? I just wanna see something other than gray skies. Apparently our area just claimed second-place for the gloomiest January on record. Now, of all the records one wants to break… right?!? So I’m starving for some color (of which pink is one of my faves), and some flowers, and I sure wouldn’t mind seeing some blue one of these days, either… provided it was up in the sky! What about YOU?

So here we are on the very first day of January in North Idaho. I picked out this picture a month ago and have saved it ‘specially for today’s wallpaper. And wouldn’t you know… today my thermometer topped out at 47-degrees, and that, combined with a reappearance of some sunshine, worked to erase nearly all traces of the winter wonderland we had just a day and a half ago! Oh well, I’m sure the snow will return in due time. And in the meantime why not download and set up your January 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar! We can always pretend!

Happy New Year!

Sitting here shivering as I’m writing this, I was particularly attracted to the warm and glowing tones of these festive packages.

Early snows, harsh winds, and a record-breaking cold October in Spokane (just the next sizable town over from here) have all conspired to treat the autumn leaves around here rather harshly.  So, as I’ve remained hungry for a bit of peaceful fall color, this image caught my eye right away.

June’s Wallpaper/Calendar is ready to download

Strawberries! Probably my favorite fruit, and this will be the 7th summer I’ve grown them in containers on my balcony. Now that I’m eating very low carb, I choose not to eat very many at a time, but I think this year’s modest number of plants should probably supply me with just the right size of daily harvest. I purposely chose mostly ever-bearing varieties vs June-bearing types for my containers this year. So if I can treat myself to 2 or 3 or 4 berries a day, I figure that’ll be just about perfect.
