I love the light that comes on when you open the door! Whoo hoo!<BR/>I haven't really hung the clothes in this summertime heat...they fry and become stiff boards of fabric. I hang them on...the healthrider!

This may reveal the snob in me, but I never liked it as much...I always thought the clothes were too stiff and didn't smell right...I love the clean clothes smell you get from fabric softener and dryer sheets. <BR/><BR/>RIP for your old dryer, but yay for the new one!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19314545.post-66348683201533222622008-09-01T21:37:00.000-05:002008-09-01T21:37:00.000-05:00Your day sounds great!

Husband cooked on the grill, so I didn't cook at all. Yeah, it was good! :-)<BR/>Your reading list sounds more intellectual than mine...I found a Mrs. Pollifax book that belonged to my mom....so decided to read that and "walk" it with her, if you know what I mean...<BR/>Mom's interests ran far and wide, from sci-fi to mysteries.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04203594257221430139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19314545.post-78446387288438184182008-09-01T21:28:00.000-05:002008-09-01T21:28:00.000-05:00Hey!I did not labor much on this Labor Day. I too...Hey!<BR/><BR/>I did not labor much on this Labor Day. I took a walk this morning.<BR/><BR/> My husband actually wanted to take the morning walk with Molly and me. He walks her in the evenings, but I do mornings. It was already so damn hot at 8:30 that I nearly collapsed. He took Molly under a shade tree after she was clearly exhausted within 15 minutes of being outside. <BR/><BR/>After that, I came home and got in bed to continue my reading. Annie Dillard. I finished Pilgrim At Tinker Creek and highly recommend it, and I started another one by Annie--An American Childhood, I think. I completed it today and will start on a third by her--The Writing Life. <BR/><BR/>I tend to read fiction more than anything else, but Annie is nonfiction and brilliant and motivating and sometimes terribly verbose because she is so in love with life, and for all those reasons and more, I love her work.<BR/><BR/>I also have One Day In The Life of Ivan Denisovich on my bedisde table. I am rereading it. I fell in love with it in high school and with Solzhenitsyn. I do lots of rereads. <BR/><BR/>So, I didn't labor, but I did get up and go to the grocery. I decided on steaks, potatoes, and vegetable kabobs for dinner with a nice red wine. I am feeling rather fine just now!<BR/><BR/>Sorry about your dryer, but you sure got a lot of years out of it!<BR/><BR/>I hope whatever you did today gave you some joy!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02820421247467536455noreply@blogger.com
