Something, something older

All is right with the world again. WG came home Friday to her Lonely Boys and they showered her with love and affection. Of course she was glad to see us, and not just because the nights are starting to get a little cold here and I do make a handy bed warmer!
But I digress.
Saturday was catch up on all the household chores that got put off. But we got the yard cleaned up and the house all set.
YS came over in the afternoon to have her car window fixed. Now her car is a 1990 Honda hatchback and the passenger window won’t stay up. I fixed it once, but when her car was stolen(we still don’t know why someone would take a 16 year old car!) someone tried to roll the window down and it broke again.
Now you might call us cheap, but who really wants to spend hundreds of dollars to fix a window that nobody uses? Just make it stay up and everyone is happy.
So we pulled off the duct-tape that was holding it in place and reset the plastic guides. Now to make the repair permanent, a few blocks of wood, strategically placed inside the door, a couple of screw and ‘Bob’s your Uncle’; the window will never move again!
Fix her window wipers, a touch of black paint on the wiper arms solves the glare problem and YS is good to go.
And in the process of chatting with her, I told her about some things we wanted to get ride of.
She was happy to take the 1950 Sunbeam Mixmaster (that I overhauled). I am glad that she can use it. The 1920’s wooden carpet sweeper, she’ll drop that off at our Mom’s. Mom will like it. She can clean her carpets silently.

The day was ending and WG suggested pizza for dinner.

A nice day and a lot was accomplished. I wish all Saturdays were so nice and easy.
