Love the suggestions on a Narwhat, never heard of it, but I will be checking it out first chance I get. Even though its just me in home now, I still use a washer and dryer, dish washer, and Kitchen Aid mixer. And have couple of neighborhood gals clean the house every two weeks, another neighbor guy to mow the yard and take out trash. I use couple of ladies to drive me to town two or three times a month, since I am 82 and don't drive anymore. When I talk to a friend who is 101 years old and lives alone on her farm, I feel young. She has her family nearby and I don't. I am little old fashion and respect others and their views, enjoy the simple life style and morning sun rising in the Eastern sky.
