We have dust bunnies. Like cat hair "tumbleweeds," but they multiply much faster!

Right now I'm trying to do a better job of learning word processors. I always used text editors and formatters in the past, but I need to use a word processor now, and I'm tired of fighting the tide.

How else could they be able to follow you? They certainly don't have ears!

Right! It's the eyes! That's how they can recognize their mate!

Trying to wake up after a night where I don't feel I've really slept. I'm glad I did some work on Sunday and I only have to work until 2pm or when the supplier that comes today is done and leaves, whatever comes last. After that it's nap-time .

Bemoaning what may be a broken little finger... Hurts like the devil, is turning a horrible shade of blue/black, and I think I'm going to have to cancel my violin performance at the White House tomorrow...

In my zeal for getting the work done today, I misjudged where I had place the ladder, swung my hand up to stabilize myself, and smashed it into the top of a doorway! Alternating ice and heat for the next two hours enabled me to soldier on and get the remaining shoji papered and veranda cleaned and re-arranged to make a better winter display through the sliding glass doors in the dinning room, but I think by tomorrow my poor little finger is going to be a poor BIG finger... Oh well... I still have nine other ones.

Did something similar a while back pulling a skirting board off the wall, and it wouldn't come loose. I pulled so hard it suddenly snapped free and whacked full on into my rigid fingers. The shock was immense, and for a while I lost touch with reality. My hand wasn't the same for weeks.

My sympathies are with you. Especially as you have 5 fingered hands. Do you have thumbs as well, or are they missing?

Just like Karl Maulden used to say... I never leave home without 'em!

I would have been very happy to have the 'reform' people in to completely prepare the house for sale. I enjoy watching people do good work. I've moved too many times to get any joy from doing it all myself. I know I 'can' do it, and I don' wanna do it any more! (Can you hear the whine in my voice?) But... my wife says, 'Golly, dear, we can save $2,000 if we do it ourselves, so why not? '

Spoiler:
Actually, what she said was, 'if you think you're going to spend $2,000 to let a couple of people come in and do what we can do ourselves in two days, you're f$#kin nuts!' So here I sit on the fifth day of home repair and regeneration, knowing we've still got at least two more full days of work ahead of us... but if I say a word about it I'm a dead man.

Oh, I have thumbs also. A few of 'em... on my right hand. Not as many on my left. Did you want an accurate count?

No need to tax yourself. I know, like me, numbers aren't your strong point .

Product researching and price comparing. I (still) need to get a scanner and I also want a colour laser printer. I'm now looking if getting an all-in-one is cheaper, it would at least take up less space than two devices.
