Linn, I'm glad to read how you're doing - I suspect most of us see our daily existence as a series of problems to resolve that get in the way of the things we intend to do.
That wiring issue sounds like one that needs to be at the top of the list. I have a wiring issue that I've finally figured out and next time I have the electrician over will get fixed. My current office is in the space that used to be the old garage, and the outlet where my computer (and affiliated) equipment is plugged is on a ground fault (GFCI) breaker in the circuit breaker box. Any time it rains hard the thing trips. Now that the room isn't in the garage or exposed to outdoor stresses I need a regular circuit breaker in its place.
Taking an extra month to enjoy your birthday - why not? I guess my next one should be plenty long since it is a particularly big one (one I couldn't have imagined, yet alone visualized accurately, when I was a youth). Mine is coming up in September (two days off from Charmion on the date and I think we're the same year.)
This afternoon I had lunch with my daughter then headed east to my work/university town for some shopping. The Halal market had 8 or 10 interesting non-wheat flours that are now in the freezer (until I have the canisters cleaned from pasta and ready to reuse). I made a list of products to try after doing some research, and these were a good start. What I didn't find there I will probably find via companies like Bob'$ Red Mill.
Today there were takers on both free offers and they'll be picked up soon. I was worried they might be too odd for people to be interested in. It is surprising what people are willing to put in a passenger vehicle; to the one who wants the saw stand I responded that no, I don't think it will fit in a back seat (of anything.) So they'll come by on Tuesday with a pickup when they're in town. I'm not making it a race for who gets it first; whoever asked for it first gets a reasonable amount of time to retrieve it.
This afternoon I picked up more fabric from the friend whose house was severely decluttered recently. We sat in the living room on regular furniture and talked for a while before I left, and that wouldn't have been possible before. Most of the fabric is in the washer and will go to my daughter or the donation project for art teachers.
