Went to dinner and a play last night with Moonglow and her boyfriend. Amongst many parts of an interesting conversation, for the first time she acknowledged that she realizes she needs to get her weight under control. Turns out we both weigh the same, and I told her that despite living in a communal house there is a way to make good food choices and make a point of building in more exercise to take the weight back off. We have our annual physical on the same day, same doctor week after next, so it'll probably come up at that time also. We're both looking at losing in the range of 25-30 pounds. I've tried to suggest that she save money by eating at home versus the various fast food stops all week (true) but behind that was also the wish that she have a healthier diet. As someone who also needed a healthier diet and who is adjusting meds, I wasn't in a position to tell her she needed to lose weight. We'll do this together, even though we'll be comparing notes at a distance.

More listed on eBay. If I finish things very late in the evening I pay ten cents to schedule the start during waking hours. That helps foster a last minute flurry of bidding. It's raining again today so unless it clears and the sunshine comes out soon I won't be finishing my yard work today, I'll stick to house stuff. Laundry, cleaning, and wiring. I'm just about to the point to move the living room all over the place. (It involves relocating television, all of the various media players, the converter box, the turn table and receiver and re-routing the speaker wires.) Not something to start when you can't finish it, or you have people tripping over all sorts of wires.

Onward!
