Darn Flies

This time of year I find all sorts of creepy crawlies in the yard. The most irritating are the flies! I guess they enjoy the smell of my sweat because it seems as soon as I sit down to cool off they start buzzing around me. Maybe I should stop working in the yard? Naw, I enjoy it and it keeps me slim(ish) and trim(ish) so I will keep at it.

Checkbook Challenge

I hate to balance my checkbook. I have been doing it for over 40 years, from way before the time of computers. In all that time I have not found one mistake that the bank made, not one! I myself have messed up a couple of times but the bank has always been right. So why the heck do I keep balancing my checkbook? Am I brave enough to trust the bank and not my own bookkeeping? I guess I will just put my neck out and see if I can let it go. Probably not.  Sigh.
