ON THE BACK BURNER

There is nothing like long time friendships. It was worth a long travel day, a back ache from leaning over to check if Dixie was still breathing and a plane seat that was broken and wouldn't recline, to come home to my friends. They all make me feel special, but they are the ones who are special. I didn't think that my hot water felt hot enough for my dish washer, so I went on YouTube and looked up how to raise the  temperature in my hot water tank. You can learn so much on YouTube. All I needed was two different screw drivers , which I had, and it was easy. I raised the temp from 120 to 130. Those 10 degrees made a big difference. I feel so accomplished when I do these little things by myself.I always wanted to learn how to repair a car. I had a vision of me repairing a VW bug. I wonder if high schools still offer adult ed. High schools use to have adult education evening classes, to learn different skills. I made a great butcher block work table one session and basic accounting at another. I tried Bridge , but It just didn't take.It's never too late, maybe I can try again.
