Oh, boy!!! My grandkids get me into all kinds of trouble. Whew. Guess this old (oops!), I mean -- retired person who has lived for a long time -- can still learn a few new tricks. Tee hee.
Well, I finally got out of the pioneer mode in my bathroom. Nooooo, I didn't have it updated, yet. After six days, I finally called in a plumber to unclog the bathtub drain. And --- no, I haven't gone that long without bathing. I just KNEW you were thinking that. I may be married to grandpa, but I don't spare the water like he does. haha. I actually got used to bathing as the pioneers did. You know -- basin of water, soap and washcloth. Yep, I've almost got it down to a science. I can take fast showers, but I got pretty good at "pioneer bathing" too.
Man, you should have seen the dining table. We had to take out the shelves in the linen closet to get access to the pipes in the wall at the back of the tub. So, where could I put all the quilts, sheets, pillowcases and towels, etc, etc, etc. but on the dining table? We lived like that for five days. Yes, of course Grandpa complained --at first. But I cleared a small space for him to do his bloodwork and put his placemat for his meals and he was okay!
Finally, today, I re-attached the panel in the back of the linen closet, re-installed the shelves, and --you guessed it -- put the quilts, pillowcases, towels, and sheets, etc, etc, etc. back on the shelves. Too bad you will miss grandpa's facial expression when he gets up from his nap.
Linda should be here this evening. I'm going to fix chicken and pasta salad for dinner. Come on over and help me eat it. Well, guess that's it for today. Granny
