 RH>> shooting our indoor/outdoor thermometer. Found out a new sensor for
 RH>> that would cost enough to buy a new one.
 NB>> So you are getting a new one...?  Or living with the old as is...?

 SH> Waiting until we can replace it. Funds are tight at the moment. In the
 SH> meantime, I'm checking reviews for different ones.

I suspected as much.  :)  I'd guess that this will be something that
will move with you, not get left at this place...?

 RH>> We're going to keep the 2nd and 3rd rescue projects tho. Second was a
 RH>> wooden dough bowl that looked like it had been used as a fruit bowl.
 RH>> It had some staining on the inside that is reduced, couldn't get it
 RH>> entirely gone.
 NB>> So you'll be using it for a dough bowl now...?

 SH> Tried it for that purpose yesterday. It was great for kneading some
 SH> dough as the elongated bowl shape was good for holding the excess
 SH> flour in place while the dough was worked. The recipe was for the
 SH> Bazlama bread which I posted recently.

Did that turn out well?  I saw the recipe you posted.  :)
 
 NB>> After all, you are trying to reduce how much you've got, not just add
 NB>> to it...  ;)  And someone else may need the frypan besides... :)

 SH> The frying pan was picked up shortly after we dropped it off. I helped
 SH> the young lady find a suitable lid for it also.

The Sharing Shop in action... working as it should... :)

 RH>> I'll be doing more of the lifting of luggage, the cooler, etc to
 RH>> take that off of him.
 NB>> It'll make it more strenuous for you, too... :)

 SH> I said we would pack no larger than carry-on size for this trip. We'll
 SH> probably have more bags for this trip, but they will be lighter than
 SH> one large bag. Between the two of us, if we both take part of the
 SH> weight, we should be okay.

That sounds a little better than I was picturing.  I do much the same
thing when I have to travel on my own... I try to pack very light as it
is, but I also only use a carry-on, so as not to get an overload in one
bag... 

 RH>> Hopefully Steve's limit will be raised; he sees the doctor two days
 RH>> before we take off. If not, then we work around it.
 NB>> Good timing for the trip... most up-to-date conditions to evaluate...
 NB>> :) Hopefully the doc will think he's ready for a little more lifting.
 NB>> :)

 SH> Yes, that was my thinking too.

Good thinking..  (G)

 NB>> Will do.  And, yes, I understand the reasoning... the doc's will have
 NB>> a better idea what the heart is capable of when they do the testing at
 NB>> the cardio rehab lab, which is yet to be scheduled.  On the other
 NB>> hand, his continuing to be lifting things unaware of the situation may
 NB>> be why his heart was already working on making its own bypass...

 SH> I hope that he will continue with the recovery. Waiting on scheduling
 SH> of a test is often worse than the test itself.

From what they were saying in the hospital, it sounded like we should
have heard from the lab by now, to schedule something, but maybe we have
to wait until after the first follow up at the cardiac doctor before the
referral is sent out... I know that I'd be glad to have that done sooner
than later... he isn't one to just sit around, but he is, at least, not
doing the really heavy lifting that he was doing between the actual
attack and the diagnosis of it...  One more chance to exercise the
patience we've been taught over the years...  ;0
