susandennisI've been trying to get with the new friends page program. If that's the way it will be, might as well learn to live with it. I'm not sure I'm making progress but I'm trying.

Before I had to buy my dishwasher for me for Christmas, I had already ordered a fun treat. I didn't cancel and it came today and I love it. The colored blocks are all individual so you can arrange it any way you like and then rearrange it. It was fun in the daylight but now that its getting darker it's very amazingly cool looking! Quite a bit of fun for $40. Here are a couple of iterations:
---
And speaking of the new dishwasher - the el cheapo GE... While I hate to speak ill of my beloved and really expensive dishwasher drawers, this new sucker knows how to <i>clean</i> dishes!!! I am not rinsing off a thing so I can see how much crud it will handle and so far sparkling, squeaky clean... every single one. When you had a little scrap of food on a dish for the drawer, it would just hang in the bottom of the drawer until you dug in and fished it out. gross. And dishes got kind of clean - never company clean. Of course, since I never have company it wasn't a biggie but it is nice to have such clean dishes so easily.
---
Neighbor Ann dropped by and the message about the magazines was received and understood and all is cool. Yeah!!! Plus she invited me to Christmas dinner again, I've had Christmas dinner with them for the past couple of years - their son and his wife (who makes cookies and brings me some every year) are there and Ron - Ann's husband and chef - makes a wonderful wonderfully delicious meal so fun.
---
The Bird Killer, who, when I call her that, just stares at me like 'yeah? whaddya want'... is showing no remorse. I still can't believe she did that. It's like Mehlia Obama, clubbing a seal. I did think about what if that bird had flown in when Travis lived here. I think he would have gone apeshit - the feline equivalent of Prissy from Gone with the Wind. But, I'm guessing he would have invited the bird to play, not pulled out the salt and pepper and strapped on the napkin.

The Yahoo Sports guy wrote a nice little piece about Ichiro and the Ichimeter lady. My report was rather replete with not-quite-rights. But still I think it's the coolest baseball story to come from the Mariners in a long time.

Date: 2012-11-21 02:18 pm (UTC)I remember when our old dishwasher finally gave up; we bought a new model too and like you, were amazed at the results we got with the dishes. What were we thinking keeping those old clunkers??
