What a gift to have a nice visit with your Dad like that!

The problem with cancelling the refrigerator is that the only alternative sellers are Lowes or Home Depot and I prefer not to buy appliances from big box companies. I think it was the delivery person who was the problem. DH said he was grossly overweight and had a really negative attitude. He made it clear that if it was a difficult delivery he wasn't doing it. I wonder if we had said when we purchased it that it was third floor with no elevator if they would have sent someone different? Well too late at this point. We set up delivery for the day after we get home.

The bats retreat into the mountain behind me in winter. They'll be back soon! They hibernate from November to April.

Yay for returning house cleaners. I've never used one except for a short time when Ben was very sick and I needed to provide full time care for him! Might consider it as I age!

Glad your DH can help coworker out with her tech issues! Gives you a little break from her too!

What a wonderful visit with your Dad! Weekends are made for napping, or when retired any day! We took a nice one after church today! The dogs love it too!

Greetings all

More sun here and even my Apple watch agrees. Just finished brunch, Studio buddy is here going over computer stuff with DH. He is quite patient and defuses her goofy outbursts. No doubt he is channeling DD's DH in calming the ranting. Lots of chatter but I am not sure what is being accomplished. I am Switzerland.

No fun living without a refrigerator Liz. I don't blame people for not carrying a refer up three flights but I do blame the store for saying they would. Not cool (LOL cool). Meanwhile everything else in Fla is cold. I saw on TV that there is a place you can deliver frozen iguanas to for their safety and without needing some kind of permit. Who knew you needed an iguana license! Enjoy the trip and hope it warms up. It is warmer here than there. The dogs are basking on the deck.

Peps nice that you had a good Dad day. Glad you fixed his tv. Bring your dad some motorcycle magazines to look at - if there still are such things.

CC you are doing great with your food prep. All that stuff sounds great. Reminds us all that healthy eating does not have to be labor intensive nor include mucho carbs. Are the bats around or were the evicted?

So our house cleaner thinks she can come back on the 11th. Not a minute too soon! We are managing but could use the help. One other good thing - I had the two bags of old sheets and such from the linen closet. The local pet store also does a lot of animal rescue and is a good place. They were grateful to get those bags of sheets for dog bedding that I think they send along with an adopted pet. Score for me. Dump source for more junk!
