Domestic Drama
A few days ago, I pushed the start button on the washing machine and nothing happened. I tried a few more times and called Dennis. He pushed the button and it started. This morning I pushed the start button and nothing. Checked the circuit breakers. All ok. Unplugged and plugged the washing machine back in. Still no start. Pounded the control panel a few times and it started. Then, nothing I did would get it to start this afternoon. Dennis took the control panel apart and found a loose connection. Hopefully problem is solved.
Ultrasound of gall bladder revealed no stones. My doctor still suspects gall bladder issues and a different type of test will be scheduled. All my blood work came back normal. Yesterday I was very careful about what I ate (avoiding fat as much as possible) and how much. No back/shoulder pain. Ditto today. So maybe if I eat less and avoid fat, the problem will be solved. Except I probably can’t really live that way forever.
The cicadas are noisy in the evening. Still have lots of lightening bugs. Also mosquitoes and gnats. It isn’t cooling off much in the evening and is in the mid-nineties with lots of humidity during the day. Typical July weather.
Project Runway starts tonight. I love the
photo of Heidi & Tim Gunn–holding needles as sceptors and groveling naked models at their feet. This is the G-rated version. Let the drama begin
