GOING TO LOWE'S

Weather and Lowe's
I have to explain about the weather before I talk about going to Lowe's. The temp was 19 degrees and we were in the middle of snow flurries. We have about 3 inches of the white stuff on the ground now. So at 2:30 we decided to go to Lowe's, why? Well, tomorrow is supposed to be a high of 7 degrees, and we didn't want to go out when it was that cold, so we took a chance and went today because we needed materials. Only we, would go out for building materials in the middle of a bunch of cold, windy snow flurries! LOL! So off we went, with the flurries heavy at times, but the roads were not too bad. The parking lot at Lowe's was treacherous though! It was really slick and hard to walk on. We got in and out within an hour, and were on our way back home. Funny how it doesn't take long to spend a hundred dollars! We passed a snow plow, plowing the other lane and putting down either salt or sand. I didn't turn around to look, so I don't know which it was. Anyway we got home and got the stuff unloaded.

Bathroom Sink:
We have a bathroom sink now! Well, we had one before but it wasn't hooked up. Now we even have hot and cold running water! Great job Mike! It is really pitiful when ya get excited about a sink and water! Haha! Hopefully we can get the bead board up, and then Mike can start running water lines for the kitchen sink. Then I can even do my dishes in the apartment! Remind me later that I was excited about being able to do my dishes in the apartment, OK? I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon after the kitchen sink is hooked up! So that is the plan for the next few days. Mike also has some electric lines to run, so he'll be doing that too. It's a good thing he knows how to do all this stuff or we'd be up a creek, without a paddle! I will be painting the bead board, while he does that, then after I get that done and we get the counter top, the sink can be hooked up. I can tile the back splash after that is done.

Scare:
My Mom gave us a scare the other evening, and had to go to the hospital emergency room. My brother called me and said they were checking to make sure that she hadn't had a stroke or a heart attack. She spent the night in the hospital, and came home the next day. They found out that she had a really bad sinus infection, and her potassium was really low. That was causing the symptoms of her face drawing to one side (sinus) and her arms tingling (low potassium), and her inflammation level was up to 75. She came home with about 5 new medicines, but thank goodness she is alright! She is really tired from her potassium being so low, and I am keeping in constant touch by phone. We may go down to Circleville, this weekend, just so I can check for myself that she is doing ok and doesn't need my help. Now I am really worried about going anywhere, so we'll see what happens in the future. Well I hope things are going ok in your neck of the woods wherever you may be, and anyone traveling please travel safe, and I'll see ya , "Some Where Over the Rainbow", so until then...
