The valet service was much appreciated! I don't think they had valet parking when I went to have my daughter, because I remember parking the car, myself, before going in (yes, I drove myself, that time!) Thank you for the good thoughts for the test results. <br /><br />Yes, I save kitchen water and shower water, etc. We've been under water restrictions for some time, now, and the new restrictions are on top of the old restrictions. What I don't save is rinse water from the washing machine because I am afraid to mess around with the hoses, manually, and cause a flood! But, there are water diverting systems that can be professionally installed to collect graywater from washing machines for irrigation use.<br />The food-go-round is a lovely thing, isn't it? :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-5907451834119546952022-06-05T12:32:50.617-07:002022-06-05T12:32:50.617-07:00Thank you, Eileen; yes, I was surprised that the h...Thank you, Eileen; yes, I was surprised that the hospital still had me on file!

I'm glad you used the valet services. Sometimes things like that are worth it and if you have the money then it's a worthwhile expense. <br />I'm glad you were able to move the appointment up. I always get nervous about medical things too. My husband does not. <br />He gets nervous if he has an early golf tee time and he's afraid he will not get up in time LOL.<br />I am sending good thoughts your way for good test results next week.<br />Good thing you were able to update your records at the hospital too.<br /><br />Do you save kitchen water for your plants? It's something I do and does help with watering things outside. Just a thought.<br /><br />As usual the food gifts from neighbor S look delicious. And fresh fruit too! How nice. <br />And yogurt from M - you've had a good week on the Bush lady named food-go-round. <br /><br />56stepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714155300369089630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-58408018814701315172022-06-04T22:45:08.554-07:002022-06-04T22:45:08.554-07:00I hope your test results are good.

I'm sure you being there meant a lot to your niece and the rest of the family. I hope your test results continue to be negative! It's hard to clean out the belongings of a loved one who passed away, isn't it? Be gentle with yourself while you do so. We are in the middle of a drought, as I'm sure you know. No rain in the forecast for the next 10 days, but, we'll gladly take any surprise rain we might get! :DBlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-16150781985927632772022-06-04T20:54:46.779-07:002022-06-04T20:54:46.779-07:00Hello Bless, I hope the scan results are very good...Hello Bless, I hope the scan results are very good. My niece's wedding was lovely, and I am very glad I went. I hate flying, but I managed the trip fine. I was careful to wear a mask, and I've tested myself and so far negative. My other niece has been unable to finish cleaning out her mother's house (my sister who passed away), so I am now at the house finishing it up. It can then be sold. Its been dry here, of course nothing like you've had. I will wish for rain in your area. The news shows how bad the drought there is.

Even during so-called off peak hours! There was some construction on the way, too, which caused a bottle neck. Thank you, Bushlady.<br />I do try to save some "gray water"; I have a 5-gallon bucket in the kitchen for the rinse water from washing the dishes and I have another 5-gallon bucket in the bathroom to collect water from the shower, etc. I don't collect the washing machine rinse water, as I am worried I'll end up flooding the place! <br />Glad you were able to find a printer that is sufficient for your needs, Bushlady; good to know about the auto paint, too! My car is dusty white because I haven't washed it in well over 2 years, with some yellow and black from when I backed into a yellow-painted bollard and scratched my car! :D In fact, I was afraid that the valet parking people would refuse to valet park my car because it is so dusty and scratched up! :DBlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-66588219892757600142022-06-04T15:38:55.400-07:002022-06-04T15:38:55.400-07:00You know your traffic well!

I hope the results will be good.<br />I was wondering if you save "gray water" (bath, washing up, etc. to water your plants? It must be so hard when you are restricted for watering.<br />I've been researching printers and found a small basic B/W laser printer that will be good enough for my needs (I don't like to bug DH to use his) and I've also researched auto paint touch up paint for our ancient car, and found that there is a place that will use a laser to get the exact colour and mix it. The model's official colour may be too dark as cars fade over the years so I was happy to learn of this other option.Bushladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-38788724507466318022022-06-04T12:13:01.325-07:002022-06-04T12:13:01.325-07:00Thank you, Eileen; keeping my fingers crossed that...Thank you, Eileen; keeping my fingers crossed that the results are good.
