The kitchen is beginning to look good. I ordered a NuWave Induction burner and it arrived today. I think hubby will enjoy using it since our stove may be too high for him to reach in a wheelcha It will also be good therapy for his hands. Just don’t tell him (LOL).

I’m still trying to reach Lowes on the stovetop. Don’t they have anyone to answer the phones????
I need the serial number and model number. Since it isn’t anywhere on the front or sides, it may be on the back. I will not pull this thing out. What a hassle to locate those two numbers.

Hubby’s roommate is still making waves. The nurses are concerned that he may try to attach my husband. I will definitely make another phone call tomorrow. Meanwhile, on my way out, I heard him screaming for water. The aides do not cater to him as they are well aware of what is going on.

Still waiting for the decorator to come out and to take final measurements for the walk-in shower. I also asked for samples of the tile. The answer I received was that he will send the info to my e-mail. I tried to explain that my hubs cannot tell from a picture. He actually likes to see everything in person. Besides, without glasses, he will not be able to see an e-mail. The decorator has already been told. In one ear and out the other.

I was able to make a brief stop at the Farmer’s Market. In just one week the prices have doubled and the fruit, tripled. There was no cantaloupe or honeydew anywhere. No even outside. The parking lot was full, but the inside of the store emptied. I surmise the customers either went for takeout or to the Dollar Tree. Very disappointed. Hmm. Wonder if they know that I am planning on a return to the North. Maybe that’s why. Guess it is time to cut down.

Hope everything is OK with xango

Sorry to see your son leave so soon. Wish him a safe flight from me. Hope the weather will not be a problem. Still no rain here, not even a drop. I wonder if the rise in Volcanic activity will have any effect on our weather??? Time will tell. On that note, have a great evening.
