Morning, Cantina. The old furniture got taken away on Thursday and the new furniture got delivered at 3:30, a half an hour before the delivery window even started. All despite dad's near-constant fretting that we WEREN'T GOING TO HAVE ANYWHERE TO SIT until the latter end of the delivery window, which was 7pm. And extra good news, the couch seems to work better for him here at home than it did even in the store's showroom. I'm also very pleased with my "chair-and-a-half", which isn't as big as a loveseat, but wider than a regular chair. That's exactly what I wanted because the dogs tend to climb up in the chair with me, which had caused the old recliner's arms to get all loosey-goosey from everybody squeezing on. More room now, so no more pushing the arms out. In fact, da lab mix hasn't even tried to come up yet because she's still freaked out by the change. She'll adjust eventually, though. The fabric on this new chair is even specifically resistant to pet claws and stains, and if they do ever rip it, the store will fix it.
As for yesterday, mom had a CT scan done because her ENT wanted to make 100% sure that her continued ear drainage is only being caused by lingering inflammation, and it confirmed that yes, that's all it is. So she's going to be on an ear drop and and oral medication that we're hoping will finally knock this out. We also had the AC looked at yesterday after it cut off on us briefly on Thursday, because we knew that was the lead-up to the annual AC outage on the hottest possible day of the year. The guy who came was the one who fixed the problem last year, so he knew what to do, and he did it for free because the company had just done annual maintenance 2 month, so he felt like this shouldn't have happened. Very nice of him.
