quiet home

Everyone is home, though the little red car is not yet.

On her way back to pick up her husband, the "Check Engine" light came on on Arline's rental car. She called the rental company and they said to park it and they would be right up with a wrecker and get the car (they were about 20 miles away). It was done, Arline met her husband who was coming back from a hiking trip with two of his sons and they made it home.

Today Dea left, with her fab teen sons, for SanFrancisco. She text me this evening to say she was home.

It was a great busy time, filled with good talk, lots of laughter and good food. I will cherish the memory.

At one point, Dea was in the kitchen and she let out a shriek. My AD wife, precious as she is, had put a stack of ice cream dishes back in the cupboard with the clean dishes. Of course the milk soured and it was odoriferous. Oh well.

After everyone was gone, Miriam and I went out to Lowe's and bought the sheetrock to cover the ceiling and walls in the new closet. Tomorrow is scheduled to have a high temp of 46, so it would a good day to work inside.
