I had no hot water yesterday and had to call the plumber again. The water pan was filled with water and put out the pilot light. Fortunately there were no leaks..there shouldn't be any since the tank is only 3 years old. The tech put the pressure relief valve outside of the pan so that this doesn't happen again.
Today my neighbor's son will come and check out the outside lights.
Monday I have my mammogram scheduled.
J will be going on vacation for 2 weeks; and cousin #3 will have to fill in for her.
Breakfast - Granola bars
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, squash, grapes, biscuit
Dessert/Snack - Brownie
Dinner - Turkey/cheese sandwich, sweet potato chips, dark sweet cherries
What did you eat yesterday?

@LadyDuck I hope you are getting some extra rest. Depression can make you tired too.

With grocery day fast approaching, I am having simple things in the heat, like some fries and chicken nuggets,

@MarieCoyle Cousin #3 doesn't regret moving; but it's been an unusually hot summer there.

Summers in Florida are very long, very hot, and extremely buggy! I prefer to visit there in the winter!

The usual for lunch, and those Lean Cuisine chicken quesadillas are now available here so I had one for dinner. Mixed fruit fake sorbet and fiber and applesauce!

@LindaOHio — no, but they have peppers and onions and a lot of cheese.

My bestie had a problem with water, too - his air conditioner leaked, and he had to have all his hall carpet taken up! I had a chicken sandwich yesterday for lunch, and I am looking forward to pizza tonight.

@LindaOHio Fortunately, he has insurance and it is covered, but sadly he does have to pay a $1500 deductible.

More and more I cannot tell you what I ate. I know I had half an Arby's classic roast beef sandwich, and a mandarin orange. We had not had those in a while. I sure hope someone shows up to help you.

I'm glad you didn't have any leaks!! That would have been horrible. And good that the plumber came right out to fix the problem!
Your lunch sounds good! Salisbury steak is usually pretty good. Yesterday I had a couple of chicken fingers, cole slaw and mashed potatoes with gravy for dinner. That was all I ate yesterday, no appetite!

Their Salisbury steak is usually iffy. Sometimes it has a lot of gristle and bone chips.

I'm so sorry you had no water. That's good that it got fixed though and hope it won't happen again.

I hope that the cousin follows through, but maybe you can book the handi-bus in advance as that appointment is so important. Mine are always done in January, that is an awful time to have one done.
Yesterday we had steak, corn on the cob, mushrooms, potatoes and garden salad for supper.

Sorry about not having hot water, that would stink.
Good luck with that, doesn't sound like fun.

I hope you get the help you need while J is on vacation. Meanwhile hope you don't have any more issues with the hot water or any other home repairs.

@LindaOHio I hope once the deck is done and the Ring doorbell installed you can relax and not have to worry about any other home repairs. I'm very happy with my Ring doorbell and it wasn't a big expense.
Is your cousin still trying to talk you into moving to Florida?

I am waiting on a second estimate for the deck repair. That's all I'm going to do this year except for getting the Ring doorbell installed. That's a minor expense compared to the deck.

@Marilynda1225 She hasn't mentioned my moving in a while. I don't think I'm going to do it. Too big of a change at my age.

Hope your appointment goes well.
