My dh experience was there was the person he works with , worked for an audiologist. Costco says some locations have audiologists, but not all. whike having nothing to compare it to, he is very happy with the service he has received from them.

Dh got all that help at Costco and continues 2 years later to get them tweaked as needed. No charge . Audiologist at Costco appointments free with the purchase of hearing aids. .

It would look beautiful. I agree the hearth is quite deep, but having had a few “sparks” fly out from our wood fireplace, I understand why. It is also extra seating when the fire is not lit.

Dh has hearing aids from Costco. We didn’t check anywhere else, just went there, because they were recommended by so many people. Customer service is amazing. Whatever he needs to have checked, tweaked, repaired, etc, it’s free. I think his were under $2,000. He is quite happy with them. They are Bluetooth, and he can control them from his cell phone. He can listen to the Tv and he takes phone calls with them. Even if you don’t have a Costco membership, and she will need her own, she will save so much more using them there.

We never had it actually happen but our neighbors had a tree that continually dropped limbs so we checked with our insurance. If their tree fell on cars in our driveway or our garage, our insurance would have to pay. However the insurance company would be contacting our neighbors insurance to seek some payment from them as well.

Someplace between 1955 and 1975 fitted sheets were invented. I remember making beds and my mom called it a hospital corner. (She was neither a nurse or military, it’s just what they were called) I was happy to ditch that skill when elastic sheets were invented. However, I still put my top sheets on with that word stuck in my head..

Mine were not terribly picky. except they didn’t like most fruits. Especially my boys…they ate most veggies, didn’t like salad, but fruit was a no go. My girls hated peas…one still does.

I got married in 1975. My Mil gave me 2 flat sheets and several hand embroidered pillow case sets. She was an RN and “hospital corners” which is what a flat sheet needs to fit the bed, were part of her life. Elastic fitted bottom sheets were in use, altho I did know what a hospital corner was. I needed sheets so,I purchased printed fitted sheets to match the pillow cases. I agree todays mattresses are probably too thick to accommodate a “hospital corner” flat sheet.

Hmmm I don’t think I could eat oysters, don’t like the texture at all but l might get some sardines. Beef is off my list for a while and I can’t have lettuce, but a burger sure sounds good! ( we don’t have an In and out burger here. 🥲

All of those foods are tolerable and currently in rotation. Thank you, thus confirms what I am doing today.

In the past 8 weeks I have had a Gi bleed, then largish precancerous polyp removed and this past week a 2nd bigger GI bleed. The polyp surgery site developed an ulcer. I am on blood thinners for chronic pulmonary embolisms and the thought is that the Wayfarin was causing the bleeds. I am starting Eliquis today. I am home now and need to heal my gut as well as raise hemoglobin. After a low of 8.1, it was 8.7 yesterday on discharge. Suggestions for soft, non gassy, foods to help me heal and get stronger. It’s been a rough couple months, my sister passed from colon cancer a week before my 1st GI Bleed and I am kind of spent mentally and physically. ETA , I know the basics, potatoes , eggs etc. I am Looking for food I don’t normally think of. My Dr told me to eat Kiwi fruit. I am putting sweet potatoes ( we eat them often, just out of currently) and beets on my list. Fruit and veggies I can eat currently are very few and I’m tired of green beans and cooked carrots. It will be better in a couple weeks and I can start adding back in salads, hemp hearts etc…

Have you thought about getting g audible books from the library and packing a set of Bluetooth earbuds in your purse?

We found a very reputable but small moving company to move us several years ago. 3 guys, one larger trailer. They did not charge by weight. They were cheaper than any bigger name company…we shopped around. My DH packed every box himself, except kitchen, which I had help to accomplish. movers just moved the boxes. They were terrific. note: movers will not take liquids. Cleaning supplies, gas cans, etc. We either gave it away, or took in our 2vehicles.

Dh and I are struggling with that this winter. Tea , honey and lemon help. You can add cinnamon and tumeric. We are doing Ricola lozenges when we are out of the house, church etc. it really stops cough for short periods of time.
