Front yard full of deer this morning.  I counted eight coming from woods across the road.  

I bought a new TV which is still in the box sitting in the living room  Janice gave me two names of people who could help me get the old one down so I could set up the new smaller one.  The first handyman she uses broke his arm doing a job somewhere else.  The second one had a pipe burst the other night after  temperatures dropped near the teens.  So the TV sits in the box until I can find someone else.  

I'm not sleeping well and it's making me crazy.  I fall asleep fine....until about 3:30 when I can't go back to sleep.  Last year at this time my mind was chatting in my head with all kinds of sorrow and issues.  This year I'm not sure why.  The mental fatigue catches up with me some days and I forget too many things.  I lost my small zipper pouch that I keep cash in and retraced my steps to the places I had been but nobody had it.  Or someone did find it and decided to keep the cash.  Friday night I went to the Longhorn with the mountain gals to celebrate a birthday and the next day couldn't find my credit card.  Luckily Longhorn had it locked up in their safe.  Some days I feel like I'm losing my mind............but I'm not.  So many things to keep up with and try to do.  It's maddening to not be able to do everything.  My saving grace is that I'm not the only one struggling with this issue.  Every time someone here finds a handyman for us to use,  something happens and we're out of luck.  Little things that I could depend on Cliff for advice or to fix just can't be solved anymore.  So we're on the search for a reliable trustworthy person to help five mountain widows.  

At 3:30 I'm walking up the mountain to the wine porch which this time of year is the living room.  Enough whining for today.
