the_rckThe electrician ended up being here for nearly four hours. His recommendation on the ceiling fan/light fixture was replacement. He got the hood installed over the oven and grounded the fridge outlet. He told me that the outlet we were using for our microwave wasn't grounded and that grounding it would require rebuilding the wall entirely because of how thin the wall is (my mother complained about that. The place is built to the minimum code for 1951), so we're now using an extension cord for the microwave. The electrician disapproves of extension cords on general principle but admitted it was a workable solution.
Cordelia's school has a half day today. She and her friends will be doing something or another together during the extra time.
I'm considering going outside with a broom to try to clear some of the snow that's fallen. It's still fluffy, and it's not very deep, so I think a broom could manage it if I do it before the nearby school lets out. My hair is still wet from showering two hours ago, but I think I'd be okay. I also don't think I could use the shovel to clear things.
I also need to run the dishwasher and do a load of laundry.
Scott will probably be home late. He needs to renew his driver's license. He's hoping to manage it during his lunch hour, but I suspect he'll be going after work which will mean many hours of waiting because Wednesday is the one day that the Secretary of State's offices are open late.
I'm hoping he'll manage over lunch, too, because we're out of bread and English muffins. I'd rather not send him after that at 9 p.m., but I'm going to have to send him after it or go myself.
Well, or find the bread machine and see if we have bread flour and/or yeast that's still good. I think we bought both in December. I might be able to move the bread machine to a place where I can run it.
