Ramblings from my Back Yard on a Wednesday Morning

   The point of having a laptop is to be able to take it places with you right? To not be tethered to a silly little power cord? That would seem like the point of having a lap top.
   My lap top however hates me and I have to keep it plugged in none stop or I have no battery.
   Unfortunately my cars in the shop right now with what I have dubbed “The Subaru Flu” and that means since I am paying eighty nine dollars an hour to heal my baby with fluids, antibiotics, radiator fluid, etc, I have no money to
A. Get my lap top fixed
or
B. buy a tablet
   What I really want is to sit at my little table in my back yard, surrounded by the cosmos, larkspurs and snap dragons that I just planted, and work on my book. The cord won’t reach across my garden of thyme, parsley, green onions and ferns to my little table sitting up in the grass and clover. I just had an Epiphany that I could run an extension cord and actually sit at my little yard table and work on my book in the shade!
   Doesn’t that seem so ridiculous to have to attach a extension cord to a lap top though?
