They are going to have someone come around to measure the space to be sure the dishwasher will fit before they order it

The dishwasher is ridiculously expensive but vixdad wanted one with a good rating as he says he wants this to be the last dishwasher we buy for this house

After Midsommar, I started the new BBC version of Howards End. I'm really enjoying it, though I think it misses the James Ivory touch. Yet, the cast is wonderful, iwth the exception of Julia Ormond, whose talents have somehow always escaped me. Tracy Ullman is a riot.

I did manage to get my roses trimmed back this afternoon. And yet it might freeze in a couple of days.

Roses trimmed?  John, do you have a house? 

(Maybe that's typical outside if NY?)

And I don't love shredded meats, but I didn't send it back. 

I hope you complained that you didn't care for the change.

We both had their Caesar salad, but I had it with chicken and Margo had it with salmon.

Was the salmon a whole piece?

We had another video chat this evening.  Until we meet Freyja in person I hope they continue sending videos & chatting so we can watch her grow.

Are they home already?

They went home around 8:00 last night.

I think she felt jealous that I didn’t or couldn’t go to work antmore, and she did.

She was having emotional and physical problems due to extreme stress on the job.

Unfortunately, she found that she couldn’t survive on her retirement income.

It turns out that she didn’t need to retire as much as she needed to get out of the job that she was working.

Now, she has found a new state job, minus the earlier stress, and everything seems to be going well.
