* bed linens at a resort
* a rack for hot food and a dish towel
* burial preparations for after death
* ironing equipment
These lines describe how the character's grandmother is grateful to good to be alive one more day, and she prays to him after having open her eyes another morning, the words cooling board and winding-sheet refer to the place where the body would rest after death, being the body and the coffin a cold since there is no life in there anymore, and the winding-sheet is the one that it is used to wrapped corpses to burial.
