Hi owls. Pretty nothing day here. Did some laundry, cleaned my bathroom and straightened a couple of drawers in my dresser. Read one of my library books this afternoon. Had a visit from my DGS today. Sure was surprised. He brought me an early Christmas present. A Kitchen Aid stand mixer. There was a thing on Facebook yesterday about winning one. I just put on there that we had gotten one for a wedding present in 1964 and it just died of old age earlier this year. That thing sure got used a lot. He saw it on FB and decided to buy me one. Said it was to pay us for storing his boat in our garage. I was thinking about asking him for a little storage fee but guess the mixer will make up for that. Haven't tried it out yet. May make cookies tomorrow.
Lin, when does your flooring get finished? Are you replacing all the carpet in the house? Saw the picture of the bookcases. Can't imagine having enough to fill those. Phyl, are you feeling better?
Told Dave that for sure tomorrow I'm going to straighten the garage. He says it doesn't need it but we keep putting more and more stuff in there and I for sure want to get the leaves swept out before the weather gets bad. Have a good night. bettyj

So Patti, did you cook your meal the next day? I bet other people who lost power were mad.
Nice gift, Betty.
Kitchen, hall bath (with a new toilet) and laundry room happen Monday. A bit to move out of kitchen, clear bath counter.going to hang light plastic drops in most of kitchen cabinets and over walk in pantry shelves. Have to find something to occupy myself while nervously waiting for it to be over. Last two weeks waiting have been forever.
today I went through the fridge pull dates and got rid of leftovers. Need it to be lighter. Have back up plan in case a different guy says empty it. Checked to be sure Micki's insulin can go into ice while fridge might be unplugged. Guy says he raises front a bit...bottles will not be inside! Ordered a new insulin to pick up Monday afternoon to be sure.

Hello everyone
Pretty much a relaxing day. Did clean our bedroom and bathrooms.
Tomorrow is our 40th wedding anniversary. Wish we could celebrate it in a fun way but canβt due to coronavirus. We are getting take out from Ruth Chris Steakhouse. Our favorite restaurant. It will be a nice day. Hard to believe itβs been 40 years.
Ok....if you like computer games Township is great. I am kinda obsessed with it. I am playing it on my iPad Pro.

Phyl, sending prayers for Dons brother.
DGS picked out the stainless steel mixer because it matches my appliances. Found a place for it on my counter top. It's too heavy to be lifting in /out of a cupboard.

Patti- I pray your recovers quickly from coronavirus. Oatmeal with peanut butter sounds good. I need to try that.
