Shifting from short-term memory to paying attention to the details: I use a Bluetooth Logitech trackball (thumb) and a couple of years ago the Bluetooth card died in my computer. So I hunted around and for about $10 bought the TP link Nano Bluetooth dongle that I used until this month (it started blinking out and losing track of the mouse) when I spent about $25 and got a new WiFi and Bluetooth card to put in the desktop to improve operation and to free up the USB on front where the dongle was.

This evening out of curiosity I was looking at the Logitech Bluetooth trackball pointing devices out there now (this one is a bit sluggish; it might just need a good cleaning) and watched a video comparing this one with an upgrade version. And the guy pointed out that they come with a nano dongle tucked in the battery compartment. Really? Did I know that when I bought it? I just looked and there it is. [slaps forehead]

Did some gardening today, will mow tomorrow and mulch the weeds I tossed onto the turf area. Did some writing, am letting it rest and will take a look again in the morning. I have four 13-gallon sized trash bags on my sofa from my friend who is preparing to move; they're each stuffed with fabric and I haven't looked in any of them. I'm debating about using them as a surprise and doing an unpacking at lunch with my daughter one of these days. (We are so easily entertained.)
