Yesterday, I fixed my very ancient vacuum. I am quite attached to this 1960s/70s Hoover relic. It’s one of those steel canisters and the thing just won’t die. The vacuum was my Great Aunt’s. The Hoover is more than a tad heavy though, but it does the job.
My guests arrived yesterday. They came bearing gifts and food for the week. I told them I was eating from scratch this month, heslthy options, so they think it’s some know of new year’s resolution. I was very impressed with the gifts, medical supplies. Of my guests is the medical field, so she brought me all kinds of goodies, even an extra suture kit!
On the tour, they were very impressed with my DIY Artwork. Her hubby was very intrigued with the wood stove and how it heats the entire house. I have it timed so I fill it before bed and it lasts through the night. The hubby got up in the middle of the night and filled it. I woke up early drenched in sweat from the heat. I thought I was having a hot flash! Lol.
It was a chilly -10 this morning, probably -20+ with the wind chill. I used the wood ash on the driveway and walk ways to melt the ice.
My guests made breakfast from scratch. My friends also brought a whole huge tin of homemade granola for me! My pantry runneth over! Sorry Daisy, but I can’t turn down free food, especially homemade granola and jams, let alone all the wonderful medical supplies.
