I've just noticed I haven't written anything here since the day I moved out of Wyndris to my cottage in White Bear Lake. I am enjoying the quiet of my new location ... no motorcycles, few ambulances ... just the sound of the wind and birds here ... which is what I had hoped for.

I am missing having a microwave and dishwasher; but, if it bothers me enough I can purchase one or the other ... or both.

I've got a concert this weekend to attend at Orchestra Hall ... Audra McDonald ... on Nov 19th, I see Patti Lupone in concert at The Ordway with my friend Jon Hayenga! Thanksgiving I will be spending with friends, our annual potluck! Should be fun!

Weather turned very cold a week ago and we had snow on Halloween Eve and day. Not much, but the freezing temps have kept the snow around this week.

I hope everyone is well, happy and healthy.

Yes! The quiet is most important!

Your cottage sounds great, I would love quiet that you have now. At least not too many sirens here.

If it were me, (and it isn't) lol, I would get the microwave before a DW and less expensive.

Enjoy!

I plan to get the microwave first!

FYI, counter-top dishwashers are available, basically just a single rack, about the right size for one person if you rarely do pots and pans in the dishwasher. They don't take up too much space (you can put a dish rack on top, for example), and they save water/energy (compared to washing and rinsing dishes and silverware by hand in hot water).

Conversely, portable full-size dishwashers can turn floor space into counter space.

Thanks for the suggestions!
