battery drain

it seems that the hits keep coming with this car. I have had a few issues in the past 6 months...Driver's side fog light not lighting up...not bulb but power going to up to housing. Read a post that states to rewire housing, will do soon. Then key would not turn in ignition. Got new key and it worked. But then the car would not start two days later. Trickle charged it but seems battery does not seem to be keeping charge. In about two days the battery is weak again. Could it be the regulator? I have no warning light saying alternator/regulator. Any ideas?

Changing out the battery and see if that takes care of the problem.
