===================
-> -> Not all that much with just my dad at home right now. His cleaning 
lady
-> -> does his laundry on a regular basis so it's usually not too full.
-> 
->  RH> Poor kitty - no nice laundry to sleep on.
-> 
-> She finds plenty of other places to sleep, no problems there. We keep
-> the door to our room shut all the time so she won't decide to sleep in
-> our suitcases.  When they first got her (from a shelter), Mom & Dad had
-> her as an indoor/outdoor cat. Her hunting prowess turned her into a
-> strictly indoor cat, much to her dismay.
-> 
No fair! Poor baby, punished for doing her job.  I hope she at least had a 
few mice to hunt.  

-> -> OK, sounds interesting. I just have to pry off a couple of earring 
hooks
-> -> and add some jump rings & chains.
-> 
->  RH> I have two charm bracelets made out of single or damaged earrings.
-> 
-> I don't wear bracelets that often (usually a watch & my Medic Alert) so
-> necklaces make more sense.

Done those too.  
 
->  RH> That often happens; they have to keep up or get closed down. 
Things
->  RH> get sloppy when there's no competition.
-> 
-> The older WF wasn't really sloppy, just darker and the aisles seemed
-> closer together. I think they took out one aisle and spread the others
-> apart, plus did some other re-arrainging. We were in there some months
-> ago and it looks a lot nicer than it did when we first moved to the
-> area.
-> 
Most stores remodel every few years.
 
-> -> It was actually working but we needed something bigger. It was good 
for
-> -> a single man who ate out a lot but not a young couple with a baby, 
then
-> -> toddler and another baby.
-> 
->  RH> Old fridges were meant for a time when you shopped for groceries
two
->  RH> or three times a week, and milk came in quarts.  The bigger ones 
came
->  RH> later.
-> 
-> I can only recall the larger fridges; the one under discussion probably
-> dates to the 40s or earlier. At any rate, it was not big enough to even
-> decently hold a week's worth of grocery shopping.

That sounds like my grandmother's original fridge; it had the compressor on 
top.
