Dupont:

Pulled all extra sheets out of the linen closet - there are four laundry loads! Having been stored for a few years, they needed it! Now I will enlist help to fold them and find a better manner of storage! THEN, my son messages that they will get a AirBnB - there might be five! And they will need to spend a part of the time - unstipulated as yet - working remotely.

I spent time looking for a way for Taun to obtain Bauman's unsweetened Apple Butter - which lasts forever in the cupboard- even after opening! SO, looked on line for shops where it is available - a wonderful map complete with addresses. Ah! Linvilla Orchards- that's where I obtained the one I finished! It is also a place I have been acquainted with since the 40's when Dad and I would go there each Sunday, in season, for fresh cider and some apples - Macs of course. And my driving lessons entailed trips there as well.

It is very different now - Not the beat up old building with a huge stone fireplace and roaring fire and conveyer belts sorting the apples by size! (It started in 1914.) SO I messaged by son all this family history; "Steve Linville was in my HS class; he inherited the orchard." (That was his upscale Quaker HS.) Just maybe he will have time to pick up apple butter for me being as it is close to the house his GF built! The first 20 years of my life was spent in that vicinity.

Yesterday, I wore myself out fetching stuff from the bakery and trying to find enough French to help the nice man (I usually get the young woman) understand what I wanted. We managed and I managed to tell him how wonderful the chicken pie was - with a now forgotten French word! He actually expressed delight at my compliment. The excursion had a couple more stops for minor things and the delivery of the two printers to Bureau en Gros!

Not eating a lot of cheese, just nice to have some different choices. Chicken broth is my fall back with a piece of bread - when I don't feel like eating anything.

R went and fetched two cord of firewood this morning with a dump trailer; the fellow loaded it for him and he backed it up to the porch and dumped it. Minimal damage to lawn and a couple shrubs but that is enough for the winter. We just use it in the den where we sit in the evening.

I am not getting any chemo. Just the pills.
