I drove through North Carolina and into Virginia, stopping only once for the lovely young female police officer who gave me the opportunity to enrich North Carolina by $218

How fast were you going?

Darn, Best Buy doesn't open until 11:00 on Sunday.  I should have called yesterday to confirm the Samsung tablet I want to get.  Mine just keeps losing the battery charge, even when I am not using it.

Then I thought, does she have a noisy ghost? About then I was awake, and she made a comment about a leak in the bathroom. I went to check: bathroom floor dry, no running water, no sign of a leak.  She told me there was a big leak over her toilet and water was running down the walls, and I told her it might be one of my pipes under the floor boards, but it could also be from another apartment.  We both agreed the plumbers this apartment's management employs are dim bulbs.

Oh, no!  Hopefully, it not from your pipes, Larry!

DR George thanks for the detailed photos of your unique wall lamp.  Without them I would not have been able to imagine it.  Congrats on winning the bid.

Thanks, Jane!  I just hung it there where I had a framed poster so that I could take the picture.  I have to find a more permanent place that also has a plug nearby so that I can turn it on.

I like DR GEORGE'S lamp.

Thanks, Jrand!  I had no intentions of bidding on anything, but I just saw that, and saw that there were no bids, and bid on a whim.

That's too bad, Jane.  I hope you get exactly what you want!

And now, I need to get out of bed, face the day, and get ready to go to the Lakewood Playhouse to see Forbidden Broadway!

I'll be back later with a report.

DR VIXMOM went through North Carolina like Sherman went through Georgia.....

Maybe we should call her Barney Oldfield now.

Thanks.  This issue has been a problem since May.  Then I had purchased the mini iPad which I returned after Keith improved the problem.  I worried on this trip I would run out of a charge and not have a book to read.  It was more like home on the ship, otherwise it was a pain keeping a charge. 

Keith fiddled with it again.  He did what I did after we returned home (after searching online for instructions) but then he completely turned off my tablet and turned it back on.  That seems to have helped, so once again I will wait a bit longer before purchasing a new tablet, at least until spring.

Fingers crossed.

Wow but lovely.

We have a cold spell and possible snow moving in, just when I need to go to the outpatient clinic Tuesday morning for my test.  I am calling Monday morning cuz if I do that drink that makes me yell, cry, get chills & sick, and throw up, they had better be there to do the test.

Spring is here. Trees are beginning to get green. I saw new leaves on the fig tree from the relative dry of the back door. Yesterday I saw irises. All this green can only mean one thing: pollen.

Doesn't compute. Please try again.

I'm scared of a late freeze.

It's a lazy afternoon.  I think I will put on a long BBC series of Dickens or Austen to while way the remainder of the day.  First I must feed the kitties and make my tuna salad for the week.

Everything for my accountant is assembled and put into my bag for tomorrow.
