The Online Issues.

Our heat wave ended with a few nice cool days but no real rain. Its getting dry out there again and the heat is building again. This could be a long hot summer.

My computer mouse wore out. I’ve been using the same old wired mouse for many years but the buttons started acting up, sending mixed messages to the computer. So, to that end I went to LD and picked up a wireless mouse, the kind that uses a little USB receiver. I figured that should work well and being cordless it would be more convenient. It didn’t work! The new mouse was dead. I couldn’t get it to turn on. Battery was good so assumably a bad internal connection. I took it back and the stupid thing worked for the salesman. That made me feel like a dumb old man who doesn’t know how to work a mouse. So, took it home, plugged in the USB receiver, turned it on and low and behold, it worked. For a whole half minute, then it quit again and would not come back on. So, back to LD and this time I insisted on them taking it back, which they did. I picked up a different mouse, a good old fashion corded one and it works just fine.

I’ve had a meeting with a health case worker and then she came to our house for a visit, to meet and chat with Sue etc. I think that insulted Sue but its all for the best as we do need official help from the system. This has long since become way more than I can handle and endure.
