Still here at Maple Lake. Spouse and son went into Haliburton today in search of a replacement optical mouse that got damaged in the transport between home and here. To clarify we have a notebook, a media laptop and just the one desktop--a gaming computer which son partially purchased himself. There really is no one here son's age to hang out with so he helps with the slew of upkeep and does gaming, swimming, and reading. Anyway I find using laptop to be hard on my shoulders toI am glad to use his desktop when he's not to get the essentials done--though I must admit, I'm really not in the mood to blog. As timing would have it Google chose to raise my PageRank from a ZERO to a 4* which directly translates into more work and better pay and it's really tough to let it slip by. The weather has been not great at all but when it does turn nice, I'm taking a few days off from paid blogging. I just have to for the thin shred on sanity that remains.. Oh, one really good computer-related thing is that we are able to get lots of television shows so we --or I more accurately, caught up with the second to last episode of Dr. Who last night. Even though the guys had seen it they obliged me by watching it with me. The final episode has aired in the UK so is available too. I'm sure we'll hit that before the weekend. And this is without downloading anything. Younger son is very squeaky clean about such things--so the Feds arresting teenage girls for downloading Emo music must have made an impression. :p

Still much fixing up to do here in the cottage. My cousin is kind of a germaphobe and she won't even come in past the porch--which really is extreme--but I understand because I'm a clutterphobe. I need things organized to further reinforce my "control freak" label. I must say it's getting there-- indoors anyway. ;) * not this blog which had it's PageRank reduced from "4" to ZERO last November then raised to a "2" a few months ago.
