Yes, the Farmer's Almanac was right. It's supposed to get cold the end of November and it has. Down to 32* here tonight and we will bring in the 2 tomato plants and my Eucalyptus tree.
So, the dentist visit was fine. I had a new hygienist and he numbed my gums with a pink gel-like stuff. He was very efficient and quick and when it was all over the numbness wore off within a few minutes. I requested him from now on, but she told me he is temporary and lives in Winter Park. I said she should hire him and he can buy a house here and move his family. He's that awesome! She was happy to hear the good feedback.
The plumber came before 11 am. He had to heat that part that was rusted in order to get the fixture to go into place so it would turn off properly. He couldn't install the new faucet/valve set for us though. He said that would entail taking out a wall to get into the water pipes and it would be expensive and anyway it was not necessary. Our shower was fixed within a few minutes and it felt so good to not have to climb into a tub again. The shower works like a charm and we will return the fixture we bought at Lowe's. Oh, that little plumbing problem costs us $100.
DH and I finished getting the leaves out of the gutters. I piled them into the garden and now we are done with that task. We are getting an estimate soon on taking that tree down. I don't want to go another year with the worry of it falling on the Lanai. I will miss the shade, but it is very rotten at the trunk and halfway up there is a visible place where rot has taken out a branch.
What's up with you Rounder's? Be back later to check you out.
