Wonton

 Here are some pics of my Grand dog Wonton.  

We took Wonton to the Fiiz with nick and he gave us this pup cup with the dog bones.  

This is Wonton with Gma Lewis.  Well I think its Gma Lewis

Abi Did it!

 

YAY  Abi is graduated with her BSN-RN.  That is an RN in Nursing.  Way to go.  I absolutely LOVE this picture of her.  It really sums her up.  Smart and stunning.  

We went to her pinning ceremony which is like white coats for Drs. but Pinning for nurses.  It was absolutely fabulous.  Brooke and Brodi and I went.  There were only 3 tickets each.  

LOVE this Abi so much!

They read this as she walked across the stage.  

There is the Brody waiting to pin her.  They were super smart and the pins were attached to a ribbon so they didn't have to pin it like in cub scouts.  It was like a necklace.  

I love all these people 

This is the Brody after pinning her.  

So proud of my little Abi.  She worked so hard and graduated with a 4.0.  She was on scholarship too.  Such a smarty.  She is headed to Boston and Northeastern University.  She was admitted to the Physical Assistance Program for the fall of 2022.  This post doesn't really do her justice because she rocks.  She is confident and spicy and sassy and kind and loving and determined and thoughtful and fun.  Way to go. Thanks for inviting me because I wouldn't have wanted to miss it. Celebrating Abi is so fun.  Now go be more awesome in Boston.  

Ramblings

 

Jim showed up with Wonton and so we went to Dinner with Andrew at Robintino's.  robintinos is one of those places you have been eating at for such a long time you are not sure if it is good or you are just use to it.  

I decided to wear my Hanukkah socks and then the same day I fould the Hanukkaah duck in the Christmas decorations.  

Then I got this from Abi.  Way to go on Admittance to PA school.  It is official as its on the School webpage

A New Water Heater and MORE golf

I turned on the shower and the water was cold.  I thought Nick has used all the hot water finally.  We never run out of hot water.  But Nick does take LONG showers.

Then Jack said the shower was freezing.  Andrew texted me later and asked how the water was.

Well, The Water Heater stopped working.  Called the plumber and he could come at 6:30 am the following morning.  

Based on what everyone said it was probably a Thermocoupler. I called the Rheem company and they said they would send me a new part based on what I said that the pilot light was out and wouldn't stay lit.  Andrew had to troubleshoot it over the phone with them.  

Not that helpful because the part wouldn't be there for like 4 days. I am NOT waiting for 4 days with cold water to save 40.00 on a part.   

This is what it looked like.  Pilot light is out so Andrew tried to restart it.  What I didn't notice is that the ground is wet under all that salt.  I thought it was overflow from the water softener.

First thing the plumber said that he planned on installing a thermocoupler but he said the water heater is leaking.  Which was obvious to me when I swept up all that junk and dust and salt.

This is the draining old water heater as the plumber went to get a new water heater at the store.  

So two hours and $1650.00 later we now have hot water.  

Yes hot water is worth 1600.  I'm charging everyone at my house 5.00 a shower.  

Here's the old one in the garage that he thinks Home Depot will give us some money for because it is under warranty.  

My favorite plumber, Malachi, was gone by 8:30 so Andrew and I decided to have some post water heater golf.  

We went to the Rose Park because it was one of the only places we could get on.  Plus we love the Rose Park

We played the back 9 because they could get us out soonest.  It was kindof difficult and not the best condition.  I scored 26 over...That was terrible.  Andrew was like 16 over.

Then we decided to play another 9 and played the front 9.  We like that much better.  I scored 17 over this time and Andrew did better. I can't remember his score.  But it was a fabulous day.  Beautiful weather which makes for fabulous golf.  :)  

So glad Andrew likes to golf with his mother.  It was so worth it to take the time off to golf.  My new mantra is that no one on their death bed wishes they would have saved their leave from work.  

Houseguests and Advent Calendar

 

We babysat B and Lola for the weekend.  B likes me since I saved her life with the eyedrops for the Labor Day Weekend.  She likes to sleep on my bed with the halloween blanket.  

I did get them a gift of a Advent Calendar for Dogs from Trader Joe's.  I hope they like it.  It is a treat a day for Dogs.  

Look how cute they are.  Almost want a dog just for this Advent Calendar.  

This one is for my Wonton.

Brooke says he loves it.
