Imbolc Settling Moon II
A workout. Bought two 4×8 rubber mats, 3/4 inch thick, for my weight lifting and other resistance work. They came Friday. Into the garage. I had to get them upstairs to the loft.
Problem. They weighed 92 pounds each. I used the dolly to get them to the stairs and then turned them end over end up the stairs. My shoulders still feel it at almost 9 this evening. This was about 9 in the morning.
Tomorrow they go down. The wi-fi works in the loft now thanks to a nifty Netgear extender I bought Thursday. The TV works. Jon and I will mount it on its stand, put it up on the shelving unit that will be its home, move the treadmill to line up with it and I’ll get back to my regular hi-intensity aerobics. Though, I admit, I still don’t know how all that will work with the altitude. But, I’ll find out soon enough.
Kate and I went to a Stickley Furniture store in Littleton, one that’s been in place since 1900. We found a table that will fit behind our couch and folds out as a table that seats six. It will be our game table and overflow guest seating for entertaining. This was a President’s Day sale, so we got 42% off.
When we left our house, our truck’s thermometer, the truckometer as we call it, read 55. When we reached the Stickley store, it read 75. At some point, I suppose, this temperature spread will become usual, but for now. Wow.
Kate works best under a deadline. I work best when I have no deadline. As the birthday/house celebration comes closer, 6 days away, Kate’s energy level goes up. Mine. Stays the same.
