Too lazy to get up in the middle of the night last night to turn the heat up.
I added a log to the wood stove in the middle of the night because the dog had to go out, lol.

I never watch TV. If something happened to it and my DH wasn't around I would never be able to get it to work, lol. Then again I would probably get rid of it.
I had to change chairs so I could plug in my laptop.
I have to go out to my porch to get the mail. The porch floor is wet and I don't want to have to put shoes on. I keep trying to train squirrels to bring my mail in, but they're very difficult.

I feel your pain! I can't even get my dogs to bring my mail in - I can't imagine trying to train squirrels.
My dogs are useless. Actually they are not even that - it's not like they're a neutral force. They TAKE energy from me and create issues that I have to deal with every day and every week and every month. It's always something - booster shots, baths, toenail trims. They even want to eat every single day. Sometimes the burden is heavy.
Yes, the burden is heavy. Birds peck at our windows (reflective coating). Noisy and tearing screens.
I asked in the "House Section" and got only jokes. But then I found this:

I bet those doggies are furry and cute, though, so it's all worth it. Booster shots... well, there ya go! Doesn't it sound like a booster shot should be a high caffeine drink at Starbucks?
I am currently without pets... unless you count the 48 squirrels and one lone chipmunk who all scurry about in my yard (because I make them seed n' peanut butter sandwiches. I'm not even kidding.) It's really hard to get the leash on a squirrel, though! Take my word for it.

I can imagine the difficulties...heck, I can hardly get my own thoroughly (and I do mean thoroughly) domesticated dogs to behave on a leash.
We only have about 17 squirrels in our yard - apparently they signed up for dog entertainment since it's such a risk free job.
I actually have two, although the second one really isn't a problem.
The first problem is that I can't remember what the problem from this morning was about so I can't post it.
The second is that Cross Pens just emailed that they have a new pen which, if you misplace it, can be found using its built-in Bluetooth transmitter.
No!!!!!!
Blue tooth gone bad. Some things just need to be lost for a little while so we can keep our skills honed.
I can't imagine how I ever drove all over Europe using a paper map. If I had to do that now, my head would explode.
