Busy Week

Posted at 8:48 pm MDT to Miscellaneous

Besides work, the dentist, upgrading the computer, and the on-going septic system annoyance (the paperwork preceding the actual work is progressing very slowly), I got my ventilation ducts cleaned -- another part of the effort to reclaim the house from the obnoxious mice that took it over last year while I was gone.

I also got my dumpster emptied, so I can proceed to the next phase of excavating the study. The study is looking depressingly cluttered again because I had to move things around for the duct cleaning guy. But some of the stuff from the hobby room (which also needed access cleared for duct cleaning) has joined the to-be-sorted pile in the livingroom.

I'm plotting ways to disinter my weight bench, which is in the hobby room. It morphed into an auxiliary book case while I was travelling all of the time, like everything else here that is neither mobile nor electronic, and not in the kitchen. But there was a period of a few years before the travelling when I did yoga every weekday along with either free weights or treadmill-walking, and I really need to start exercising again. It's twitchiness speaking, not guilt, so I'm likely to actually do it, if I can excavate the equipment from the clutter. And at least the excavation involves doing more than sitting at the computer.

It's too bad the weekend is supposed to be another annoying one, weather-wise. If it's windy and rainy, I'm not going to feel like hauling stuff down the slimy clay of the driveway to the dumpster.
