4/25/2015   Saturday 6:13 PM.


 Received and installed Laptop replacement battery.


Been digging a spot for recently purchased Fragrant Tea Olive
Bushes/trees. 


Rained last night and a couple of nights earlier.  Need a more 
reliable rain gage.  


Looking into Home Insurance Quotes; Think what I pay is too much.  Pay about 1524.00  annual premium. 


Allstate quoted 741.00 per year. 
If that quote will hold for a few years, its good enough for me.
That would be half what I pay no. 


Looking to change Auto Insurance company as wel; Paying
1200 to Geico for four vehicles.  Need to have James take over the black van and me decide about Honda. 


Fence project holding.  just waiting for a nice cool day to begin and finish. 


Would like to take a trip, but would like to get some things done just before.  


Still saving what I can keep from spending. Would like to continue
saving for Older age.  


While looking to fix laptop, I loosened some back screws. Put them back, but now, I often do not get the letter "L" when I tap it. I think the laptop back is not entirely snug against back of keyboard.


Gotta go.

Payday!
Live payday to payday. Not like the old days when money ran out before
payday. Now its the most exciting thing to look forward to.  Go take money
out of one place and deposit it in another. I keep calling it my Wells fargo
routine. Wells Fargo, as in the cowboy and indian movie days.  Crooks
were always on the look out (argument here) for money shipments. I go to
to the bank and take out several hundred dollars, then between banks am
concerned about carrying more than I can afford to lose. What if I have an
accident and have 3 thousand in my shirt pocket. I keep saying or asking
myself, why am I doing this, why do I keep doing this?  The answer is that
if I transfer electronically, it requires a minimum of 3 business days. That is the business standard, whether money transfers or Stock trades and settlement; I have done the transfer in such a way; the fee is $3 dollars for 3 business days, or $10 or $15 for next business day. Overnight wire is $25.00 Dollars. I also don't like the wait.  I want it done today! and for no cost, So
I go to the bank and withdraw the money every 1st of the month. I leave enough money in the checking account to cover bill pay and other debits such as groceries, gas, etc.
I like making deposits and seeing my savings balances climb.
When the day comes that I think I have enough money in savings, I'll
concentrate less on what I have just described, and just leave the money in the Primary bank and let the balance build up as it  may or may not.
Blah blah blah. Most things I talk about have so many details, I get tired of trying to write them all down, especially since my typing is slow and or I make mistakes and have to correct them. Its not typing, but texting does not fit the description either.     Publish.
