My new TV arrived Saturday...Steve came down and installed it for me. I thought I wanted it up on the wall so we \went to the hardware store to get the stuff for that....but the stuff we got didn't fit the TV..so it is sitting on the same stand the other one stood on. He moved the stand over where I wanted so if it ever comes to pass it will go up on the wall, it will already be in place. Now I need the smaller computer table Jocelyn is giving me and I can place the chairs where I want them and I will be all set. The only thing that didn't get hooked up was the DVD player....and I think I can do that when I find the correct stuff to do it with. (I looked on the set-up directions so I can do it myself -easily - she said confidently!) LOL
Once that was done, I took Fritz and went over to Jocelyn's house to dog sit while she went away for overnight. She left the key hidden outside, so I got in okay. THe pellet stove was going like crazy and it was toasty warm....She left a page of instructions as to how to turn it on and off so I settled down for a warm winter's night, as it were. The dog door had been shut and I found it stupidly difficult to open it up again....but finally got it; played a couple games on her laptop; and it was time for bed. First problem was getting her dog, Gizmo, up on the bed. He is HEAVY...between us, we got it done; then I discovered the bed light was not working so I had to use the overhead to read by; tried the TV in the bedroom and couldn't get it to work; so....went to sleep...and lasted a long time in that state. Got up and went to make coffee and couldn't figure out how to turn the darn coffee maker on....finally got it after a few zillion tries......then decided to take a shower but couldn't figure out how to turn on the water in the stand-up shower. (Didn't want to use the other shower 'cause the tub is slippery) Suffered through the first half of the Seahawks game and Marcia called telling me she was coming down....so I decided to go on home and wait for her there...Joce came home soon after I left...When Marcia arrived and properly oohed and awed over my TV we went back to Joce's house and were joined by Dian and Brooke and Grayson. Brooke and Grayson went down for a nap and the girls and I went for some brow waxing (them) and nail filling...(Marcia and me)....then to Marshall's for some shopping - to Ezells for some chicken - and back to Joce's to eat it - and chat about the upcoming wedding and going away party - less than a week away!!
Boy oh Boy!!! It;s either feast or famine these days.
Week ago today was my 3 month checkup with my doc. All seems well. I asked if I could qualify for a handicapped parking thing - since I was so old - and she said yes...so that should be coming this week. Get my eyes checked on Thursday.
I am hunting for some innovative ways to use sauerkraut I was looking for some appetizers I had one time using the stuff...but can't find it. Come to think of it - it may have been cookies or candy that I ate...I'll look in that area. Did find an appetizer that looks easy using Crescent rolls and little smokies which I will take to the party... I forgot...I have laundry in the machine..I had best go get it!! Take care!!
