Hey, Judy! We ... I should say our *house* is in Astoria. (We're
currently in Chula Vista, CA.) Can't wait to get back to dewy Oregon!

Astoria is so nice. Also, I lived in Chula Vista once, about twenty five
years ago.

Also, you do want to take the rugs up and clean under
them periodically. The grit that goes through the rug
combined with traffic can grind the grit against the
floor. Having a rug pad that stuff doesn't go through
helps, but even with a good pad you'll get stuff under
the carpet around the edges.


More if you lift the corner and sweep stuff under lol


Well, yeah ;-) Alas, my kids seem to do that
all the time. I have to remember to lift up the edges
frequently and find all sorts of stuff stashed under
there!

The plasterers who did my bathroom swept their debris down the pipe
chase, not realizing that it would all end up on the basement floor,
where I would find it and curse them.

I thought that about Astoria too, until just this month! I just got
back on
Tuesday from spending two weeks in Astoria, and I was completely
miserable
with all the rain and dampness. Never thought I'd be begging to come
back
to cold, snowy, icy Minnesota!

I love the rain. It has rained here for months and it would be nice to have
a few days of sun, but I do love the rain. Right now, it is pouring and
very windy.

I really feel for your mother. It can be *very* painful and keep you
from living a normal life. I'm lucky in that I don't have constant
pain. But I can't walk far. Biking was my salvation last year, and I
can't wait for spring so I can once again ride.

A rubbery pad, or one like the felt ones put under large area rugs might
be just the ticket for her. I wish her the very best and hope that
physical therapy will resolve the issue.

Thanks Dianne, I'll pass that along to her and let you know how her
recovery goes!
