Well, I managed to clean the kitchen, somewhat.

I guess I'm really out of the loop. If I were to say I had reclaimed stove space, I would be cleaning the range from those guys who were here for like three and a half months. I was trying to stir something, reached into the utensil drawer where clean utensils are supposed to be and the first 3 items I pull out are dirty! The third one, at least, was one of those that you use on no stick pans and only the handle is sticky. I turned the hot water on, took the dish soap and put a drop or two on it. Then I had something to stir my pasta to keep it from sticking. Several years before just before my wife got sick she got these pots that were so good. I, however, was not going to abandon my old pots and pans. I did, however, have storage. We spent an afternoon matching up pots with lids and storing them. The pot that was sitting on the range when they left... I tried. I really tried to get it clean. But, the idi... other guy, who didn't get things clean (the sane one just never washed a pot/frying pan, he just used it again...) So, once they were gone, I got something I had been craving, not going to tell you it is healthy, but... I bought it and went looking for a clean thing to cook in. I do not know where the idi... put the pots. I went over, got one of the pots I had refused to give up, gave it a quick wash, since it was dusty, and fixed my meal. So, can you explain what you mean by "reclaimed stove space"? I have seen those pocky sticks. Never had any, but I saw a great bit on a strip on Questionable Content that also involved, among other things, pocky sticks empty boxes... I guess, never had any, I do not need anymore bad addictions.

It's good you've got some of the cleaning done. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

My daughter walks too much some days. I hope you can put your feet up and relax.

I hope your feet can relax this evening and you'll both have a good night,

I hope your feet feel better.

It's h3ll when our body starts failing us when we have things to do, I have the same thing myself I start a sink load of dishes & get them done, I'm done & I have a cushion mat to stand on thinking that would help but it doesn't, but I manage.
