Hi Ruth,

-> downstairs one is about half the size but he made it full, with a tub.
-> That's the one we're trying to talk them into putting in a shower
-> instead and a stackable washer/dryer unit. But, the cat's litter box is
-> in the tub so.......................

 RH> ...no roll-in shower until the cat dies of old age?

Seems like that's the way they're heading. But, the cat is still
relatively young, compared to how old the last few my folks have had
were when they died. This one is only about 6, maybe 8. The other cats
held out to 17 or 18 years.

->  RH> That sounds familiar, right?  Except that for some of us some weeks
->  RH> it's two doctors.

-> Well, in about 6 weeks she won't be going as often. Some weeks it's
-> several appointments, then weeks with none. I rescheduled my mid March
-> to April 1 since I just saw the doctor last week for a non routine
-> appointment.

 RH> Good idea.  Now to make sure you don't have to go back again.

I'm trying to keep it that way. My wrists have gotten lots of keyboard
exercise the last few weeks; now it's time for the rest of my body to
try to get some as well. Start walking around town more, do some heavy
duty spring cleaning, etc. Get my energy up to chase grand kids.

-> We had a couple of big suitcases each, carry ons each, a cooler for
-> water, stuff we bought along the way.................

 RH> Precisely.  I have a back seat that folds down for a reason.  I
 RH> haven't needed it yet...yet...but I might.

We have a split back seat. Works nice for putting part down for the
extra room, part stays up for the cooler on long trips. We've also got a
power connect on the back of the middle (of the front seats) console so
we can plug the cooler into it & not have quite so many cords (GPS, etc)
up front.


->  RH> Wasabi won't do that; it goes up your nose like any good
 RH> horseradish.
 RH> ->
-> Well, now I need something to clear the chest. No mustard plaster
-> either, thank you.

 RH> Mucinex-D is more like it.  Mustard plasters are downright evil.  But
 RH> how about a good old-fashioned humidifier?

Too humid, too long and I don't do too well. That's why, even on some
cooler days, I need the air conditioner to dry out some of the extra
humidity.
