 NB>>> Our house, thankfully, doesn't tend to get too humid inside,
 NB>>> except sometimes in the dog days of late July or August...
 RH>> Ours can, but it gets hotter and humider here than NY--tho July
 RH>> and August can be pretty humid up there, I know.
 NB>> True, and true...  :)   And your house is probably constructed
 NB>> differently from ours as well....  :)

 RH> Probably so; we're single story, might call it similar to Cape Cod
 RH> style. Not ranch, more compact than that.
 
Ours is, as you know, two stories plus full attic and full basement... I
was also thinking that yours was probably made of different materials
than ours as well and/or to different specifications... 

 NB>>> hear the quotes, though, when the staff called them
 NB>>> "milkshakes"... It does have somewhat the texture of a thin
 NB>>> shake...  ;)  Lydia used to make Mommy shakes with milk and ice 
 NB>>> cream, though.... or put a scoop of ice cream, along with milk,
 NB>>> to reconstitute her Breakfast Essentials drink for her supper...
 NB>>> Anything to get more calories and nutrients into someone having
 NB>>> difficulty eating enough...   :)
 RH>> Lydia's shakes sound much more appealing. (G) And, yes, the main
 RH>> idea is to push nutrients that may not be consumed thru other
 RH>> meals. Much easier to drink a "shake" than to have to wrestle
 RH>> knife/fork/spoon/chew/plate/bowl as you get older and frailer.
 NB>> Exactly....  :)

 RH> Better than having an IV line for nutrients tho.

Or the PEG into the stomach.... absolutely...  :)
