It seems like we were busy all day...first it was a trip to Target for pills and cleaning supplies. Then to Ace Hardware to return plumbing supplies ( dishwasher stuff).
Home to work on getting the new dishwasher in and I washed dishes by hand...
Bob decided to paint the inside of the cabinet where the new dishwasher will go... found a new can of Kilz paint in the garage but no paint brushes. He must have left his stash of brushes at out daughter's house. So off he went to Ace again for brushes... then filled the car's gas tank and went to the library to return books and pick up more that were on hold...
Then it was time to paint...he struggled mightily on the floor ... I became his gofer...but he managed and then figured out how to get up. Not much fun being old - Bob turns 85 on the first!
BTW both daughters think Bob should have had the dishwasher installed... but he is sure he can do it! And I don't think it was the cost...he just doesn't want to give up doing what he's always done!
In the midst of all that I chopped onions, celery and shallots. Boiled thin skinned potatoes for the first potato salad of the spring/summer season!! It was a success! More dishes to wash.
Bob and I have been struggling with my cell phone... something strange about storage.. It doesn't want to do things. It is old -- 10 years old . Both daughters and a quilting friend think I should get a new one..we'll see.
