You all were very nice in commenting on my posts last night, helping me to reach payout but the battery in my mouse gave up the ghost. I thought I had another but when I looked in my battery drawer (yes, I have a battery drawer) there were lots but none was a double A. And I may have mentioned a time or two befor that I hate using the scroll pad (it tends not to do what I want it to and deletes what's on my screen).
So, I just stopping computering for the night. I thought I would have to go out this morning to buy new batteries but had one last look around the house trying to find something else that used AAs that I could rob. Lo and behold, a small flashlight volunteered one of its kidneys, I mean batteries, and I am able to continue computering in my robe.
I don't think I would have made it anyway if I had found the flashlight last night (I didn't have anything new to say).

I'm on 4:80 so I didn't reach payout either. I should reach 5:00 by the end of August, so I should get payout in September.

@BarBaraPrz 
Let's see how much we can get it up to by the end of August.

@sharonelton Well, with only 20 cents to go, you should make it easy-peasy. I have another 60 cents to go, so I shouldn't have any trouble either.

I have not reached payout in the last two months. Offline life is keeping me too busy and away from here. I hope to get paid in September from myLot and few other sites too.

And I've been busy with my garden, but I should be able to rack up the 38 cents I need to make payout for September. Hope you make it too.

@BarBaraPrz I am busy offline for good reasons and so no complaints. I have made 2.48 dollars as of now in the last two months. 
. Still not touched the halfway mark of the payout.

Poor flashlight... Did you get written permission to do surgery on the poor thing?

I use a mouse with a USB connection. I found the batteries ran out too often with my cordless mouse. I'm glad you're back in operation. Don't forget to buy more AA batteries! Enjoy your day.

I will buy more batteries today, if I get to the store...
As I told @paigea, the very first cordless mouse I had would do that, too, but this one from Logitech behaves much better (or I'm buying better batteries).

@BarBaraPrz My family still does, but I don’t have one in my home. I should probably keep some extra handy.

True, but I'm surprised that you didn't. You seem to be here all the time.

Yes. The very first cordless mouse I had was always running dry, but this one seems to last longer.
