Can no one straighten a lamp?
Maybe Holmes arranged the lamps like that for a specific purpose, and the housecleaner is afraid to touch them.
Afternoon, folks. Pat, James, and Vlad are home from their backpacking trip and have washed. Their laundry is underway.
Kathleen made a friend yesterday playing outside. She wanted to go over to her house this afternoon. She told me the mother spoke Spanish but the little girl, whose name she had forgotten, spoke English. No problem. However, when we arrived at the house, I realized she meant a Polish family! (They have an electrical contracting business.)
Fortunately, the mother speaks adequate English. They were very pleasant and said their little girl, who is about 8 and has toy horses, will walk Kathleen back up the street at 5.
