The Dishwasher Came!!!

November 8, 2024

I got several things yesterday from different deliveries.

In the morning, I got the FedEx from Bruce, as well as the coveralls I ordered.

You can tell I am not practiced in taking my picture in the mirror.

The coveralls are heavier fabric than I expected and are very well made. I am very impressed. I am so impressed that I am going to include the link here: https://www.keyapparel.com/

These are a men’s short medium coveralls. They have a great measurement guide. The short is for 5’4” to 5’7”. I am 5’7” and these fit me perfectly.

I ordered a pair for Bruce so he can wear them while mowing. He needs to be protected from the poison ivy. (Yes, he managed to get into it again while mowing. He is almost recovered from this round.) I ordered the men’s short large for him. I hope they fit well.

Next, I got a package from Amazon. The Queen Anne legs on the dresser are a mess, so I ordered replacements and a leg mounting kit. We’ll see how that goes. I got the leg mounting kit yesterday. The legs are supposed to arrive today.

I got a phone call letting me know the dishwasher delivery team was 20 minutes away. They texted me when they were about five minutes away.

They brought the dishwasher into the kitchen. Nox barked at them, so I picked her up. I thanked them for bringing in the delivery. They admired the odd room, “What a cool room.”

Nox decided the dishwasher was not a problem.

I sent a picture to Bruce and asked him if I should unbox it. He responded that I should wait until he gets back, unless I thought it might be damaged. The packaging looked perfect to me, so unboxed it will remain.

I walked around yesterday looking at the yard.

I discovered the henbit dead-nettle was blooming. I was very surprised since is a spring blooming plant. As a child, my sisters and I called them Easter basket plants. They reminded us of Easter baskets and bloom around Easter.

I walked to the mailbox to check to see if I got anything in the mail. No mail.

I did notice these little bell morning glories blooming by the mailbox.

I like the pink color.

I spent a lot of time working on the map to Blackberry Homestead.

Here’s the second page of the map. Getting the house right was a challenge. I need my drafting set from college. I don’t remember if I got rid of it or not.

In the evening, I noticed how beautiful the yellow leaves of the hickory tree next door are.

If you look closely at the vines on the fence you can see white and yellow honeysuckle flowers blooming.

Nox got to see cows on one of her excursions. She takes great joy in watching the cows.

A nice day, even if I miss Bruce.
