The green tea at around 12 Midnight is causing me to stay awake - even at the late night hours of 2 AM on 6th December! So time to talk a bit. First, after a few months, our Microwave Oven is fine. It needed the change of Magnetron as it was no longer heating things. Total expense was around 1800 INR roughly 25 USD at the current rates. We can now use it to heat certain things in a way that they do not overheat. Another thing to talk is about calmness. I tend to have a calm attitude in certain situations. If need arises, I adopt something else. Now, some folks say as to why I did not respond to a person X in a certain way, or say things to another one in another way. Or not become violent or agitated. May be things work for other folks in another way. Not for me. In fact, as I grow older, I find calmness as an inner strength. And well, if I am wrong, only God can judge me. Well, perhaps too much preaching by me ! Time to sleep now !

So happy for you that your microwave was inexpensively repaired. Calmness is a gift that too many don’t have. Sleep well.

@DianneN Well it was within what I expected, although the savings did got reduced a bit. Yet it helped today as we had outside food due to some celebrations, and we could heat each and every thing that we had to eat.

I tend to be calm as well. Anger can get in the way of reason.

I have become more patient and laid back as I've aged - which is probably a good thing.
