No Garbage Can :(

Ugh. The outlets above the built-in desk don't work. I have to run cords to the power strip partway down the room. There are a lot of outlets here that don't work. Sigh.

The garbage pickup people did not drop off my garbage can today as they said that they would. I left a message and emailed them, but they must be gone for the weekend. I'm not ( Read more... )

Did you know the electricity didn't work in some areas, or do you just need to throw a switch to reboot. LOL I don't know the words for anything anymore! They come out like computer-speak.

I've always liked Harry more than anyone else in that family- well, Diana, too- but I feel like they both made some errors in how they came forward. Yet, how do you topple a monarchy? How do you say, Enough! Let's be modern and treat ourselves like "real" people, and still do our jobs? I feel so much of the laid with Elizabeth II.
