Our First Visitor


Hello,

We have had our first guest in our new place. This young man, formerly from our congregation in Ely did not seem to be bothered by the odd placement of our pictures. He is quite tall and so even the one picture that was only a couple inches from the ceiling was in his line of sight.

He came for supper and in addition was able to visit with Miriam’s family via the webcam. We played a game as well. That seemed to fit all of us as a good time.

Now that we have started, maybe we can have some more guests. It seems to me the first is the hardest for me to get a grip on. Leroy did put up some nails so we actually hung three pictures in their final home. It makes a difference in making this my place. The Eiffel tower is over the desk in the computer room or office. I like it a lot. It is like getting a new picture that has been with us for six years.

I also bought another kitchen cart. This one was advertized as a microwave cart. It was $15 more, but it looked much the same. It also has a broken part. The brake on one of the wheels was snapped off. Leroy called the company as instructed to get a spare part. Unfortunately they could not just send a new wheel. We could have taken it back to the store, but decided that three brakes would hold it in place. It does give me more room. Leroy also was able to put up another shelf in the bathroom giving us some more storage space. We have brought down all a couple more big bins that we can put in there as it does not seem to get too steamy when we shower.

We, for some reason, cannot find our rechargeable batteries and the charger. I guess it was not a large enough item to put on the content list. Again I think it was because we were so spoiled at larger places where it was easier to take out all of our things and look at them. Here too many things are staying hidden in boxes.
