Reflecting on our day

Tweet

I am sitting in my cozy, heated throw. I appreciate many things. It was a little cooler today but not bad. We just use the throws to not have to run up the heating bill so much, but be totally comfortable. Speaking of throws brings us to Bob's sister, Elaine. Someone finally came in and checked out her boiler. It was not heating because it had air in the lines. Her home is a cozy 73 degrees F. and she did not have to pay for a new furnace or boiler and wait for it to be delivered and installed. She says the hot water is still not hot. Bob was trying to direct her how to trouble shoot it, but she does not understand. The plumber was supposed to come to town today. He had another job as well as our work. He has a fever and is throwing up. He does not want to share that with us. You may remember I mentioned that was going around our town as well. I told him to stay hydrated and take care. Since the plumber was not coming today we had time to run to Emporia (about 45 miles) to return a defective item to Hobby Lobby, and shop a little. Of course I spent more money, but I also got something for my Secret Santa exchange. Then we went across the road to Aldi. I went in for four things and spent $76, because I kept remembering things and Bob came in and walked the aisles with me. I was glad for his company. The one thing I had to get done today was to make my cranberry sauce for tomorrow's dinner at church. I put granny smith apples and a cinnamon stick in it to make it unique. It is in that red glass bowl. I had a silicone cover that fit over it. The temperature is cool enough this evening that I took it to the car already. So that is how today went by.
