Me:
Went to the gym this morning: pool was (*grump*) closed, but did a half hour workout, and found it much less tiring than I expected. This of course may be due to the fact that my caffiene intake is now two cups of tea a day, rather than four plus four or five Diet Cokes.
Weight? A painful 287lbs on the Scales That Do Not Lie. Time to start losing.
House:
The folks we're buying off have a second viewing on a place they like. Fingers crossed.
The electrician's just been and fixed all our wiring (including some horrible 1930's rubber-insulated lighting circuits).
Evidently the previously owners had some work done. Equally evidently, the guy who did it for them was a liability. The horror pictured below was extracted intact from under our landing floorboard, about 2" from a copper heating pipe.
