Good: The electrician came yesterday and fixed several things that needed fixing – disconnecting the old, scary boiler, putting in GFI’s, fixing the exterior plug that was open to the elements.
Bad: He turned off the new, non-scary boiler and we didn’t notice until we woke cold this morning.
Good: I’m back on the wagon losing weight.
Bad: Despite the 50 lbs I took off, alderfather has not yet quit smoking. Everyone now! Boo, hiss, Bad Father!!
Good: For only the second time since going on his sugar-cat diet, Drake let me sleep through the night without demanding food.
Bad: Nightmares anyway.

And I began an Autumn story (LJ) in hopes of getting more comments on Meeks’ sketch of Autumn (DW) ; for every comment, I’ll post 100 more words.

GFI circuits are a Good Thing. I’m glad we’ve got them in the apartment bathroom even though I suspect they weren’t required the last time the wiring was redone (l-o-n-g a-g-o). Now I need to find that weight loss wagon myself.
What worked for me was Weight Watchers, just buying the book on e-bay and using the system, not the whole support group thing. The old plugs in the kitchen were these horrid plug strips – like these http://www.jhlarson.com/new_items/WRM/wrm_tr_plugmold.jpg only a brassy color – that were actually warped/melted by the edge of the stove… O_O
