We were close to a freeze last night, odd for April. But then the weather report was wrong (the databases were disconnected last week when the NOAA contracts for cloud storage were cancelled.) So - your guess is as good as mine. It is cool, though should warm into the 60s by midday. I plan to work in the yard then, before cleaning up and running a couple of errands I've let stack up.

Yesterday was one of those cleaning days when stuff around the house that usually just sits got the annual trip through the washer or dishwasher. Today I'm making a list for the electrician and looking at a couple of other temporary repairs around here that should be made permanently.

I also have the next batch of glassware in the top of the dishwasher to go through each time it runs for a few days. Like the water problem Charmion mentioned (limestone) it gradually accumulates, making these cloudy. Running through through the washer with vinegar gradually removes it, better than simply soaking in water with vinegar might.

The friend who is moving back to town with her kids found a house - but the inspection late last week showed some expensive repairs (like mine, it needs foundation work). So they've cancelled the closing and their realtor is continuing to look around.
