Laptop has died

My 2016 Apple MacBook has died. I can no longer upgrade Lightroom and the battery only lasts for about one hour. Sometimes when I log on it shuts down when I attempt to open an app. I have been researching a new one and finally contacted a friend at Apple and discussed the problem with her. On her recommendation and a few articles by some photographer reviews I selected a refurbished 2024 14” MacBook Pro M4Pro Chip with 14-core CPU, 48GB, 2TB, Nano-Texture. They shipped it yesterday with an expected delivery of Thursday, though it looks like I may receive it today. I will then have to load up all of my software. So hopefully I will be up and running in the next couple of days.

In the mean time here are a few iPhone14pro photos from this morning after a couple inches of snow fell during the night.
