Sorry for the lack of posts for the past two days. I haven’t been feeling up to par. It’s amazing how back pain can affect your whole well being. This morning, I didn’t even attempt my walk. It was all I could do to stand up semi-upright. As the day wore on, its better but not to the point I’ll be doing much today.
The doctor’s office called with the results of the urinalysis and everything was clear. That probably means my original diagnosis of prostatitis was correct. Again, I’m available for consultations. For a price.
Yesterday, the supervisor for the project came to the house and investigated why my dishwasher didn’t seem to drain. I always do better when I have 24 hours to analyze a problem. I slept on it and had a eureka moment. I pulled out the installation instructions from my filing cabinet and noticed it said there was a metal “knock out” blocking the intake from the garbage disposal. I figured I had either purchased a lemon dishwasher or since the construction guy installed the disposal first, he didn’t know to check for the knock out. Luckily, the supervisor found the knock out had not been removed and so no drainage was possible. It was a quick fix!
He also said the construction people would be out this morning to put on the drawer and cabinet pulls, change out the power cord on the dishwasher (another story) and to replace some baseboard in the kitchen. I’m still waiting as of 1:23 pm.
The power cord has been a nightmare. It was not included when I purchased the dishwasher and there was no mention on Lowes’ web site that I needed to purchase that separately. I was post haste sent to Lowes to purchase a power cord. When they went to plug in the dishwasher, the design on the cord is such that the head of the plug hangs down. When it did that, it blocked the plug for the disposal. The receptacle is hard wired specifically for the dish washer to be on the top and the disposal on the bottom. If you try to reverse the plugs, then the dishwasher would only turn on when you flipped the disposal switch and the disposal would never shut off.
We found a temporary solution by putting a 2 prong to 3 prong adaptor to the dishwasher plug. That allowed for the dishwasher plug to project past the disposal plug. That’s not the best solution. The adaptor is not grounded and you really don’t want to be running an electrical appliance that is not grounded.
I did run a load of dishes last night and everything worked well. It drained the dishwasher into the disposal and then down the sink. Hopefully, the construction guys can correct the system by attaching my new power cord that looks like a normal 3 prong plug. If they show up. At least the supervisor told me the new upper cabinets had been ordered. Now, for another 6-8 weeks to pass.

As far as the pandemic goes, Broward went from 69, 303 cases three days ago to 70, 147 today. Deaths went from 1,132 three days ago to 1, 195. The state of Florida has reported over 70,000 cases with over 11,000 deaths. Unfortunately, Mississippi still leads the nation in number of cases and deaths per capita.
At the University of Mississippi, they report a daily total of 199 cases with 191 of those as students, 7 staff and 1 faculty member. Of those totals, 3 are from campus programs and 11 are from student housing. However, there is no where in their report that there are 199 cases at Ole Miss from the onset of the virus or is 199 cases is the daily total and there are several hundred cases since the onset.
In my opinion, the real problem, scientifically, with this pandemic is no standardization of data. Mississippi reports it differently than Florida and both report it differently from several national reporting sites.
This is not over yet!
Stay tuned and stay safe!
