Again.On Saturday we went to New Orleans, we have not been there since Katrina. All our trips to Biloxi, we never had the time to drive over there. Much has been rebuilt, but since much to do.
The French Quarter is still the same. People drinking on the street and the streets need cleaning. Driving a big diesel truck down those narrow streets is not fun, we thought we wouldn't be able to find a parking space, but finally did.
Sunday we did a sunrise Easter service by the beach, it was freezing. We wore jeans and sweatshirts, but really glad we had a blanket in the truck.
Today we started work. H went to a development in Forest Heights, where we have been before. He painted, caulked, and cut trim. And cut his thumb. Not bad though, no stitches required. I went to work at the free clinic. We did not have a doctor today, so we did a nurse clinic. We weren't busy because most people want a doctor, only way to get a prescription, a nurse can only do over the counter meds.
This morning before I left, I was fixing breakfast and had the tea kettle plugged in. I smelled something hot and smoke smell. I checked the kettle to make sure I had enough water in it, then looked up in time to see the coils at the back of the microwave looking bright red and some smoke, I did not have the microwave on. I pressed the button to open it and the redness stopped and the smell of smoke gradually dissipated. H had already left and did not have his phone on(of course), so I called Town and Country (RV place) to talk to service They told me to unplug it (plug in behind it and microwave is screwed in to cupboards), so they said to shut off the breaker (which I should have thought of myself). They said I must have touched the convection button, but I had not even touched the microwave at all. I was afraid to leave for work with there being any chance it might catch on fire. So now we have an appointment to have it checked when we get home. Always something, but it would be the same way if we were home.
Tomorrow will be a better day!
