Last night DR George mentioned Dianna Reeves. I used to work with her brother in Arlington, VA. She and her band performed at the company Christmas party. They weren't young, but they were still very good.

[Jeanne]

DR Jeanne, in my 40 years in this apartment, we had the following supers:
Mr Gonzalez, who was here when I moved in, a really wonderful man; he was older and lived wth his wife on the first floor; their daughter and grandson lived on the fifth floor.
Alban Greenwich, from one of the Caribbean islands; lived with his wife and children; his wife was an excellent cook; they left to go back to the Caribbean and open a B&B; Alban was a good super for a while, then he stopped caring long before he left.
Steve Trifun, one of the absolute best, took over in early 1999; RIP, Steve.
Bosko, his son-in-law, sacked in 2016/
Val, absolute best, Aug. 2016-July 2018.
? ? ?, didn't last long; I cannot even remember his name.
Jeff, our current.

I think every apartment building should have a super. I live in a small (9units) building that is managed by the owner's daughter. They would benefit by having someone who knows what they're doing.

[Jeanne]

About my refrigerator: I called Jeff, who contacted the service company. The landlord was only involved once the service man declared the fridge terminal.

Yes, but you have a super to do that. Here, we have the blind leading the blind, with many poor decisions and unnecessary inconvenience to the tenants.

[Jeanne]

I do not have the intestinal fortitude to watch tonight's "debate."

I don't, either, but I would like to see the 60 MINUTES interview with the president and Lesley Stahl. It airs on Sunday, but I'm told it's already been posted on Facebook.

[Jeanne]

I need something happy in my life.

I think we could all use some of that now.

[Jeanne]

I just toasted a bagel (GF pumpkin bagel from TJ's) in the air fryer.  5 minutes and perfection.  I swear, this Ninja-Foodi can do anything!   

I didn't know TJ's had GF bagels. I'll have to check that out!

Does the daughter live in the building?  If not a super, which would be best, a manager that gets people out quickly to fix things would be nice.

Yup.

[Jeanne]

Vibes for happiness in many guises to all DRs!

TTFN.

From your earlier comment it seems the daughter is useless.

Gratuitous Post #100!

Yes, she lives in the building, which I see as a big advantage, but doesn't always appreciate when things need attention, IMO. Had she been a homeowner for a few years she'd be far more knowledgable.

Not exactly.  The White House released their version of the interview, which was "taken from a White House camera in the room for archival purposes."

I think a lot of people that might not have watched will now tune into the show now to find out what really happened.

I didn't know TJ's had GF bagels. I'll have to check that out!

DR Jeanne - yes, these were the pumpkin ones, but I believe they have normal ones all year round

DR TCB, Topaz is indeed a cutie! After much consideration, I have decided I will try to adopt little Lenox.  He's so cute, but Annabelle, Thatch, and Stella give me ERKS (Excessive Romping Kitty Syndrome).

Good luck, Larry! 

This must be a Freudian slip! I meant to type that I would not try to adopt Lennox.

I'm glad to hear this. You are struggling with Stella now. I can't imagine adding another kitten.

[Laura]

My ballot was accepted. I have no need to watch a debate.

[John G.]

Watching La Cenerentola (Cinderella) instead. Something light. Fun. 

[Jane]

My ballot was accepted. I have no need to watch a debate.

I am still waiting to see our ballots were accepted.  Hopefully tomorrow.

[Jane]

I wish I wasn't watching the debate.

[singdaw]

This seems like the perfect recipe to enjoy whilst watching the debate...

[Laura]

I decided to watch after all.

[Jane]

Finally finished The Man Who Knew Too Much.  Listening to a little music, then back to work on project one.

[Jane]

I decided to watch after all.

I hope you are glad you are watching.
