More Things That Control Our Lives

Today Queenie went. That’s the fridge-freezer. I knew she had only about three years to live, when she was repaired about that long ago. Two of the nicest young men I’ve ever seen on repair jobs—or anywhere else—showed up. Brothers they were, and both had been in the Marines, and both had served in Iraq. One had just got out of the service. They had the best manners I’ve witnessed in young men for many a year. I wanted to hug them both, but of course, I did not. One was teaching the other the repair job.

So tomorrow is cut out for me. I’ll take a cab to purchase a new fridge-freezer, hoping it can be delivered the same day. I’ll lose quite a batch of food, but tonight I decided to eat the tastiest thing the freezer offered. I chose the one individual-sized pepperoni pizza, to which I added some freshly cut red peppers. Delish!

If all of you who read my blog would sign up as followers (rather than use email) and sent a picture of your eyes or one of your feet or your backyard swing set, I could stop writing them and we could all spend our time just looking at the pictures.

See you later!
