==================
Hi Ruth,

-> Nope, because no eating or drinking is allowed by the patient while at
-> the ER for something like that. In January, Steve & I just got a quick
-> vending machine snack at the Nellis AFB ER around noon, figuring we'd be
-> in & out. Wrong answer! Rachel had black eyed peas & collard greens (and
-> other sides) when we got home--and ate heartily.

 RH> You can count on 4-6 hours in the "normal" ER visit.

We were there for 8 because I'd been triaged as having a cold instead of
the bronchitis I knew it was (and told them). I can skip that step next
time, my pulminologist gave me a perscription for antibiotics last time
I saw her.

->  RH> This is only the third stovetop in the house.  We had an old
 RH> Caloric
->  RH> stovetop (gas) that ran forever until the burners wouldn't light
 RH> any
->  RH> more without a match.  It had to be a good 30 years old at that
 RH> point.

-> Probably reconditioned and resold. (G)

 RH> Possibly.  Probably just junked.

Parts of it recycled?


-> -> place, just hope it lasts as long as we're here. I suspect we've
 RH> given
-> -> it the most use of probably any of the tenants since it was put in.

->  RH> Not surprising.

-> No, since this house is mostly rented by students. I think it was built
-> in the late 1990s so it could be on its original stove--an electric with
-> the open coils and self cleaning oven.

 RH> Sounds like.

I suspect so. It has a self cleaning oven--and we run a cycle every so
often.

-> -> take out the ones for appliances, etc we no longer have.

->  RH> We do that every so often too.  My old oven didn't have one; it was
->  RH> too old to have one and used into the bargain.  It died of old age
->  RH> rather than abuse.

-> We have a lot of small things that get replaced every so often. Taking
-> out the no longer needed paperwork lightens the box and puts more into
-> the recycle bag/can.

 RH> You do have to do that once in a while.  I recently ditched a bunch of
 RH> floppy discs that somehow hid out in an upper cabinet in my desk for
 RH> years after I had any way to read them.

Ancient history. (G) I've found manuals for some things we've gotten rid
of years ago.

->  RH> have mobility problems into the bargain.

-> I understand; my mobility is better than it was but I'm not a fan of
-> heat, pollen, etc.

 RH> Me neither.  I did grab some cabbage, cukes, plums and an eggplant
 RH> today though.

I got a yelllow squash, a couple of cucmbers and a couple of tomatoes
yesterday. The squash and one tomato are already gone.
