November 4, 2015. Madison, Ms. Workmen.

The men who come to work on our house are all young, except for the handyman, who is 59.  I think it is a good sign for the community when the skilled craftsmen are young.  The plumbers are young who work for the company we use.  They are competent and pleasant and seem to enjoy their job.  Today we had a young man arrive from the company we hired to clean the windows.  He was working by himself and cleans the windows by hand.  Unfortunately, he could not clean many of the outside windows because they are too high off the ground.  Tomorrow he will return and power wash the outside of the house.  I have yet to figure out how to get the outside windows clean.

The new fridge was delivered today.  Last week when we ordered it, at Lowes,  delivery date was three weeks, but yesterday it had arrived so this morning bright and early the store called to say it would be delivered between 8 and 10.  At 9, the doorbell rang and the fridge was there.  The old huge fridge was hauled away and the brand new freezer/fridge is now in place.   The young men had trouble removing the old fridge but they persevered and soon it was gone.  Tomorrow morning the plumber will attach the water line and we will be up and running.

Thanks to all these young competent hard working men, our house is bit by bit shaping up.  We are fortunate to have this many workers available.
