low maintenance

It wouldn't take much for me to become a complete hermit because I despise shopping.  I plan trips where I can get it all at once and not have to get out for days.  Last night the battery went out on my cordless mouse and I couldn't get the cover off to replace it.  Three of us tried and it wouldn't budge.  Even though I have a touch pad on the laptop I do much better with a mouse.  The gentral had none so I was facing a trip to Wallyhell which is my worst nightmare.  When I got home from the dolla' store I tried it one more time and voila~  Battery replaced and no walmart.  See how little it takes to make me happy?

I've had my morning chat with Lauren and Reaves which is always a pleasure.  She has found those feetsies and gives them a good workout.  I have roman candles and sparklers left from the 4th so I don't even have to go to the fireworks tent. 

No news here.  Just trying to keep the water flowing and stay warm which will be an ordeal for the next week.  I can't tell you how many times I've let it freeze and had to wait for the thaw, so to speak.  Once it happened on a Sunday and I put out an SOS on Facebook.  Greg Collier came to my rescue, torch and all.   Call him for all your plumbing and electrical needs.  Tell him Janie sent you!
