Good Evening Humble Readers! Some long weekend randomness for you...
Something might seem kind of odd, but it's really rather cool. Early this year, Dad C had spent a big chunk of change on some new hearing aids. One of the granddaughters (she's now in her early 20's) was born with only 10% hearing in one ear. I don't know all the whys and wherefores as to why nothing has been done for her hearing up to this point, but something has been done now. Mom C made arrangements with Dad's audiologist and now my Beloved's niece is the proud owner of a top of the line hearing aid. It only took an hour or so to reset it for her needs, and now she has perfect hearing.

Is there anything more gratifying than a shiny clean kitchen?

Remember those bugs I told you all about the other day? The ones that had no respect for personal space? Well, they left their marks. I'm covered in bug bites... in not nice places. (ok, not THERE... get your minds out of the gutter!) But, yes, I was wearing a skirt. *sigh*

I'm off from work tomorow, so I'm going to tackle the bathroom. Including the frightening abyss that is the cupboard under the sink. And I'm going to fix that dang toilet! How's that for motivation?
While I might not be a hobbit genetically, I do believe that I am one culturally. A homebody at heart, with a fear of (but slight craving for) adventure, who values simple things like good food, good books, and good friends. Chronicling the journey of the unlikely pairing of a Hobbit and an Ent, who have travelled down the road through infertility & RPL, toward building our family. We've come a long way, and now with two precious wee-lings in tow, our road goes ever on and on...

Thanks for your comment on my blog. Still trying to get things figured out... we will get there.
ReplyDeleteI think a shinny clean kitchen is the best thing in the world!! My DH cleaned the kitchen Sunday and now I don't want to cook!
aww! leaving her his hearing aids was like donating an organ.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet. :o)
How wonderful that Dad C was able to pass along the hearing aid!
ReplyDeleteClean kitchens (and bathrooms) are wonderful...or so I've heard...
How awesome that Dad C keeps on giving and supporting his family, sounds like he would be pleased. Sorry about the bug bites, that IS annoying. I frankly can't get major projects done if my kitchen is a mess. I'd rather just take the time to get it cleaned and my head clears right up. What a total bizarre 50's housewife kind of thing, but there it is.
ReplyDeleteyay for clean kitchens and bathrooms! Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteGreat news about the hearing aid!
that is so awesome for your niece and how lovely that your Dad C can go on giving to those he loves.
ReplyDeleteAwww, the hearing aid story made me teary eyed. How neat!
ReplyDeleteSorry for bug bites...yikes.
Loving your cleaning frenzy. I'm the same way when I have time off.
