    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Bad night last night so I decided not to connect my new cable to the breaker panel. Instead I cleared out an area in a dark corner of the basement so I could get at the floor above. A piece of floorboard broke, which I discovered when investigating why a patch in the floor above was a bit...

    "Better-safe-than-sorry"

    Mostly general preparation for things that might happen. Whether that's a simple thing like taking a basic first aid kit when I go hiking to making sure I've got a well-stocked pantry as winter approaches, it's just about considering the "what if" questions. As with most things there are some...

    Covid Numbers Dropped Drastically!

    Good news for everyone except the would-be diktators.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Got some wiring done. I need to run a new cable into the bedroom that's next on the rebuild list, so figured I might as well get on with that. It will also give me an extra outlet in the space that will be handy while I'm working. It's fiddly having to find the best route and drill holes to run...

    Getting your blood drawn

    I've never liked needles and the last time I gave a blood sample was probably three years ago. I should get it checked again I guess. It's not a huge deal, objectively speaking, so I just grit my teeth and get on with it.

    Wordle?

    It's a bit of fun. You have six attempts to guess a five-letter word in a way similar to the Mastermind game of decades ago. With each guess your letters turn one of three colors - black means the letter isn't in the word at all, yellow means it's there but in a different position and green...

    Getting older

    Getting old sucks but it beats the alternative. As I get older I'm less tolerant of stupid people.

    Really hard to open jars?

    Sometimes that works. Sometimes it just makes the lid wet and harder to grip.

    Really hard to open jars?

    I have a rubber square thing as well that I don't often need but comes in handy every once in a while. If that doesn't work I have been known to use a range of wrenches to open things. I have a few beers in the basement with corked bottles that are desperately hard to open, so I often use...

    What's on your keychain

    I have two keychains. One has my home and car keys on it, the other has keys to a couple of things at church. I don't particularly need the keys with me but having had a couple of occasions where I couldn't find the keys where they were supposed to be I asked the pastor if he had a problem with...

    Valentine’s Day

    My wife and I very seldom go out on Valentine's Day. Usually what happens is you get charged through the nose for mediocre service because it's what is expected. Often we'd get ourselves a takeaway and a nice bottle of wine.

    Quitting an unhealthy habit

    Cutting out sugary drinks almost entirely helps keep weight off. Especially where free refills are concerned - it's terrifying to think of just how much sugar you can take on when your glass of soda is endlessly refilled.

    Sorest part of your body right now

    ... and after another run this morning my calf muscles aren't entirely happy with me. But I seem to be getting faster, even if just lately all the running I can do is laps of an indoor hall. Once I've got more of my house fixed up I really want to get a halfway decent treadmill.

    Homeowners:

    That a lot of the home condition report is about the inspector covering their rear end than things I necessarily need to know. My home report indicated a section of chimney that wasn't adequately supported, to the point my mortgage lender wanted me to assure them I'd get it fixed within six...

    I had a socket with switched polarity in my house. It took longer to move the furniture to get at the socket than it took to remove the socket and fix the wiring.

    The rarest or most interesting item

    It was actually me who dropped it. It needed attention before I dropped it and needs more attention now. I bought it at an estate sale very cheaply because it wasn't in great shape (the movement looked fine, as best as I could tell) and nobody could tell if it even worked or not, and when I...

    The Entire Bible and Old Testament

    It's more like saying you had pasta for dinner for the last four days so want something a bit different for a while. She's not saying she isn't going to read the Bible at all, it looks to me like she wants to dig into books she hasn't previously read. Nothing wrong with that - if anything I...
