Lessons From Small Inconveniences
Yesterday I had a honey-do job in our kitchen. One of the fluorescent lights under the main cabinets over the splashboard by the cook top was intermittent. To see the lamp itself, I had to stoop down and look up. Now to those readers who are younger than about 40 or so, this does not [...]
