We've been juggling several remote controls for months and I hope I've found the solution - a remote caddy from Amazon.com.
In addition to the remote that came with our Sharp Aquos TV, there's one for the BluRay player, one for the Sony soundbar, one for the Metrolink cable/TV, and more recently the Amazon Fire TV Stick. All five fit nicely with room for more.
In the meantime, we remain in the grip of near record cold. The water supply line to the dishwasher has been frozen for about a week and we fervently hope it doesn't leak when it thaws. We had Maria's extended family here on New Year's Day and got by nicely with paper plates and plastic cups. I think the coldest morning was Tuesday when it was -13°F. The good news is that both cars have started and run in this insane cold and the house is reasonably warm. We are oh so glad we got all new windows installed before the bottom fell out of the thermometer. This 114-year-old house is the tightest it has ever been, which isn't saying a lot. We'll know more when we get the next gas bill.
The forecast calls for highs in the low to mid-30s for a few days starting on Sunday and it can't come soon enough.
