Good point about platters but we don't need that kind of space. I don't like the freezer on the bottom and I also like ice and water on the outside of the door which is why I like the side by side. I think I did see refrigerators you could order with the freezer at the bottom and a single door up top though I'm not really positive.

I am a weather nerd if you couldn't tell. So I'm so disappointed by the endless warm temps and sun when we should be getting a rest from the sun and our water for next year. I asked one of the AI thingies if there have been any winters in Sedona with no snow. And 2010 was proposed as the last one. Then I was reading yesterday about the cold in FL this winter and how they are hoping that if it lasts long enough, some of the non-native iguanas and invasive pythons in the Everglades will die. They mentioned the last time it happened was in 2010. There were also terrible blizzards in the east in 2010. Lo and behold it was a La Nina year just like this year. There's nothing new under the sun...

I got the designs for the gate and I'm so happy with them! Woohoo! Also so glad I asked for a second quote from someone else as it's a few thousand less and includes repairing a steel fence that has bent in the wind (footings weren't deep enough) and repairing the corner of the outdoor shower gate that has rusted through. I am sending the HOA request today.

The man came and took the rugs and chest away. Yay! Wow, they were heavy. Leaving soon for my hair appt.

Food is going well. I need to up my exercise. I did talk to the woman trainer and she would like me to have a doctor look at my shoulder before I start. Blech. Oddly enough, it's feeling better with the massage gun. Still some restricted movement and twinges, but so much better after 6 months.

My dad and his wife arrive on the 9th and will stay until March 4th. Easier than several months. And he's feeling great, so maybe we can pack some fun stuff in.

That's it from here. Hope you're all doing well!

PS - the thing I like about a french door fridge is the wider and deeper freezer. I get annoyed trying to fit wide stuff into a narrow upright freezer side.

I didn't like the French Door model either. I like ice in the door, so when we replaced our fridge a couple of years ago we also bought a side by side. But what a pain this whole electrical situation is! It's not like you needed to deal with the fall out of this when there is so much else happening. Those temps are unbelievable! Are these record lows?

Sorry you still haven't found the bracelet (I am guessing that since you didn't mention it) but you must have recaptured a lot of space in the closet! Those drive-by thrift shops are wonderful. To donate at the habitat restore on Cape Cod you have to make an appointment and get pre-clearance on large items. The one near us here is a drive-by that takes EVERYTHING, then sorts through it to determine what to do with it.

Greetings all

More sun today in spite of my Apple watch telling me it is cloudy. I managed to get the linen closet cleaned out yesterday. Amazing what I found. I now have a giant bag of old bed sheets that we don't use. I also have a large amount of linen items that are unopened in packages. Like a mattress pad that is a California king that I must have bought by mistake. There are some other sheets and duvet covers and I have no clue why I bought them or why I did not use them. Oh well. I think the thrift store will take the new stuff. We will see about the other stuff. The other sheets are all clean and usable but probably no one wants them. There is a big thrift store in Eureka that has a back alley that you can drive into and guys come out and take stuff - a thrifting drive by.

Too bad about the power surge Liz. No elevator is not cool. Hope it all gets fixed. Weird on how only half the building was impacted. Glad you did not need arctic clothing for the event. Also too bad about grandson's wrecked car. An insurance mess to untangle. Years ago I asked our insurance agent if our house sitter could drive our car and be covered and they said yes we were covered for an occasional driver - whatever that means.

CC you need to give your house a new name - like Terra del Kirby. Don't you just love a slow day. I am sure Kimbels had no idea what your message meant.

So I went to the studio for awhile today. Studio buddy stopped in for a bit. Honestly she is driving me nuts. I think she needs some mental health counseling and will ponder a tactful way to suggest it. Long story short I think she is sort of manic and borderline paranoid. Then I got a call from our director that the studio bank card has been compromised and that also our signature cards are out of date. They wanted the to remember which employee I dealt with there when the new cards were set up. Well duh I don't remember but I do know what I was told. Oy vey.

Yum yum sandwhiches tonight which DH thinks are a great delicacy.

Peps if I was in the market for plastics I would go to your surgeon. Looks like a great job. As the saying goes, "you...look...marvelous"! . Well if 75 is the gateway to old age then I am fast approaching. I felt like 70 was a change physically but I know 80 year olds that run circles around me.

Cheers. Diane S.
