The electrician came today and rewired the connection to our dishwasher. He was impressed with the amount of damage to the wires, especially to the wire nuts that were burned in two pieces! While he couldn't guarantee that the dishwasher had escaped damage it works fine with the rewiring.
While Ian dealt with the electrician, Harriet and I napped. In fact I spent most of today sleeping after a weekend of being so sick. My fever broke sometime over knight and left me with a monstrous headache. At least I had already called in sick so I could take the time I needed to sleep.
Around three, my appetite returned (more or less). I also had enough of my wits about me to finish reading a book (not a very good one) but perfect for the amount of brain cells I had.
