 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
 RH>> Cod style. Not ranch, more compact than that.
 NB>> Ours is, as you know, two stories plus full attic and full
 NB>> basement... I was also thinking that yours was probably made
 NB>> of different materials than ours as well and/or to different
 NB>> specifications...

 RH> Probably less insulation but don't know about the spec/materials used.
 RH> We have an attic (not full), no basement but a crawl space instead of
 RH> a slab.

The less insulation would be a factor in whether or not things would
maintain temps... no basement means that you don't have the cooling help
in summer of the ground keeping constant temp, although the crawl space
would provide some ventilation that could help...  :)
 
 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.
 NB>> Or the PEG into the stomach.... absolutely...  :)

 RH> That too. That's not eating, no matter what they call it.

Yup, at least the "shake" is something you put into your mouth
yourself...  ;)
