Starting a List

Well, hi!

These pictures pretty much tell how things are with the list of "no-no's".  I still don't have much of an appetite and I have channeled Mom several times and just had a bowl of cereal for lunch.  I seem to be craving Rain Bran.  Sometimes lunch has been scrambled eggs.  Evidently I can handle a trace of butter and perhaps two small strips of degreased bacon, but no more, and definitely not together.   Also on the list are mayo, most salad dressings, and Bunny Tracks ice cream.  Vanilla ice cream had been good and no problems, so I tried the Bunny Tracks.  Bad idea.  Life is an adventure and eating is trial and error.

Other than that, I continue to heal and am being careful.  Les is feeling better and he played golf today.  Came home happy so it was a good day! 

We got a call from our installer for the kitchen work earlier in the week.  He wanted to know if we were ready for our new kitchen starting the week of the 19th.  Based on the original estimate, we were expecting end of April or maybe early May.  So we've had a flurry of activity this week while we ordered the new dishwasher, bought a new faucet and garbage disposal, and went up to Ashland, Virginia, to look at granite slabs.  We had upgraded when we picked our granite and he wanted us to go look and be sure we were getting what we wanted.  So it was about three hours of driving up there and back and less than half an hour there while we looked and picked.  Then we stopped to talk to our installer.

We also went to the Amish furniture store and ordered a dinette set.  Amish made, solid wood, dark stain.  The store had some gorgeous things.  Will take about eight weeks to get it.  It is being built in Holmes County, Ohio.  Just a county away from home!

Life is good!  Stay safe and God Bless America!
