This image came in the emails this morning.......I might try...yet again to make waffles. I do love them. These were made with a sour dough batter.
I have just gotten off the phone with the Oil and Propane People. Son puts me in charge of phone calls. I was on hold for quite awhile..... the very nice woman who answered the phone said _ 3 to 5 days for delivery. A system check and then they would fill the propane tanks. No auto delivery as the company has no way of knowing how often your generator goes on (how often your power goes out)........makes sense. Last Winter it went off ALL the time. Time will tell if this was a good investment... obviously it has great resale value if we sell the house. When we sell the house.
I stayed awake watching the Washington Tampa Bay Game as long as I could and then went to bed. Washington won by 3 points.. (I found out a few minutes ago)....sigh. Now, I have always liked Tampa Bay but right now...I like the new Washington quarterback more.
I also called my primary doctor regarding "are you showing up for your appointment????" phone calls. I was on the land line the first call and there is no button number one to push for yes... just a rotary dial.. the only kind of phone to use in a complete power failure. Also everyone on the street has a rotary phone for emergencies....so I called first thing this morning and left a message and the automated guy called again.....I pressed one. Success.
I believe there is an additional phone with buttons that we can now put in the bedroom- since the generator will keep the lights on........I just need to find it. I unhooked it because we kept knocking it off the bench it was on when we got up from the table...the dining room table.
Going for my once a year visit to my doctor who has NEVER made eye contact or examined me. He sits and looks at his screen and types the entire visit.. The nurses weigh me, check my blood pressure etc and then send me downstairs for blood letting and shots.........then I go home. A complete waste of time but my medical insurance provider needs one annual appointment. Last time I had lost 40 pounds and everyone was so excited (not the doctor).....I might have lost a few MORE pounds in the past year....we'll see. I have never seen results from any of the blood tests. I was told they are in my "portal" for viewing. I am never visiting my "portal".......send me paper.
The furnace is running quite a bit.....my coffee needs a warm up....oatmeal was great....no Monday newspaper so I tried working on a few unfinished Suduko puzzles.... not productive. Well, that's it for today....doctor tomorrow. With daughter driving. The Kitchen Supply Store is right around the corner but..I don't cook....so no need to visit. I even make my Grilled Cheese Sandwiches in the Toaster Oven now. The two times a year I make one. Time for my Daily Navel Orange....have a nice day!!!!!
