Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

[Alaskan]

Kitchen is correct. Window there looks out on my bedroom/art studio. I am having the refrigerator placed in that spot. shoved out into my bedroom about a foot. Remember the walls in my house are one foot thick. So that will place the refrigerator about fourteen inches into the kitchen. Wire rack with Countertops will be on either side of that refrigerator.

This will give me places to put Microwave Coffee pot Toaster oven etc. I dont have alot of small electrical devices but what I do have I want to keep out. Those three will probably get the most use. I am hoping to put the freezer in the pantry but its much smaller than the refrigerator so it can go along that wall. I have a dedicated circuit for the refrigerator but not the freezer. Both will get brown out protectors plugged in between. They are designed to shut the power off when it gets too low. Then come back on when it is at a safe level.

Thank goodness the models I bought Sip power.

After that window is closed off there is still a window on the opposite wall.

The house is full of light from the outside the only benefit of those sliding glass doors. I may just put in french doors on the Parrot side.

The pantry is going to be built in that alcove next to the kitchen which will block half of the sliding glass door that is used as the entry door right now. I am hoping to replace that entry slider with a Plain window with some vents that I can open on good days. same goes for the other sliding glass door on the other side of the pot belly stove. Replace it with an entry door and a window.

I love light and air. so need to resolve this when the time comes.

Thanks for the explanation.

I like the idea of pushing the fridge into the next room.

I did that with the deep freezer in my pantry.

Your plans sound good, thanks for going over them.

A nice cheerful note from up here;

Makes me happy!

Also, our increase line is gradual now, no longer exponential.

And, we got a nice sized shipment of proper protective gear for hospital personnel, and that has been shipped about the state... so it is where it might be needed.

We now also have enough testing supplies, so anyone that thinks they need to be tested can be tested.

So... looking up.

And... all of that after opening up some of the economy as of this past Monday.

The governor et. all give an update every day at 5... nice, very informative.

It is soothing to hear what plans have been made, what they are putting in place in case things go sideways...

Governor actually sounds reasonable. Science woman is good too, but sadly someone must have asked her to dumb down her updates. I liked them better before.

Not such good news here. Just found out last night it’s in our local nursing home. First confirmed case in our little town. I mean, I know it’s been out there and probably in our town longer than anyone knows, but it’s easier to be in denial when you don’t actually know it... On the other hand, I was starting to feel a bit complacent about precautions, etc. Not any more!
