Hello, AustinGranny! So good to see you popping in again!
I never posted at all yesterday, but it was a pretty terrific Tuesday.
DGD and I were here alone for the afternoon, and we
got the WHB vacuuming done, plus changed the sheets on the master bed.
Last night dh & I went to see
American Made, which is based on a true story. We both enjoyed it. I sorta have a fascination with the CIA, so it was right down my alley. (Not especially a Tom Cruise fan, but I'm not actively opposed to him, either.)
Today, dcousin's husband, the repairman, finally came to look at our trash compactor and pronounced it dead.
So... SS check came today, and now over half of it is gone again. Ordered new trash compactor from S ears.
Actually, we're getting by okay without it, you know? But there is now this big gaping hole in the cabinet space, and dh seems to think we MUST have a trash compactor.
Also on the good side though, credit card was credited a refund finally, so I guess that sorta cut the cost of the compactor in half? It's all in one's perspective.
(((HRH))) and (((Nurse Harriet)))
Broke but sensible beats flush but careless any day. If everyone planned like you do for the future there would be a lot less stress in the world.
Ditto that, Harriet. * For more on my thoughts in THIS regard, see J&C...
(((Twins))) So... sorry about your dmom... I know that has to be so difficult. Could she look at picture albums with you, perhaps old pictures would jog old memories. I've heard old memories come easier than recent ones for elderly patients like this.
I want to sit and do nothing, too, Kathryn!
I have no nana-duty until 6:00, when I am taking dgs to Wed. night church. However, tomorrow, I'll have dgd at 9:00 a.m. for about an hour, while they meet with teachers/IEP stuff/etc... and then Friday, I'll have to take dgs to school at 7:30, pick him up, and have dgd all day. AND we just found out today that dgd MAY have hand-foot-and mouth disease... * sigh * DDIL took her to the doctor earlier today. Fever, irritable, etc. At least we now know it's not strep, ddil said.
