Good News/Bad News...

Guess my wireless keyboard and mouse are trying to tell me something.

The battery in the mouse started blinking a small red light and finally stopped working.

A change of batteries and it was back up and running.

Because I am NOT a touch typist - more of a hunt and peck with a heavy hand  - the gradual disappearance of the letters on key keys was becoming more than just a nuisance. Found my packet of vinyl stick-on letters and the 1/4" Helvetica looked right.

Larger, but much better.

This happens when you overuse the words East, Seat, Sate, Teas and Eats too often.

I was pleased that my 13-year old heating and cooling unit passed its semi-annual inspection.

It came with a 10-year warranty.

The same HVAC tech had come the last few times but, today, his foot slipped while he was in the attic.

A hole was punched in the ceiling but he was not injured. Just embarrassed.

This was the first problem in about 26 inspection/adjustment bi-annual visits by the company that had installed it,

My cat had been placed in a back bedroom - standard for these visits - but she noticed the new look at once.

The attic pull-down ladder had been closed but she was curious.

Looking at the counter top and up at the hole,

Did I mention she misses nothing?

(Click on the photos for more details.)

Hopefully there will NOT be a picture of the cat attempting a high leap.

No problem though of that happening.

She's not allowed on the table.

Nor on the kitchen counters.
