Out Ioway

My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of Heaven and earth,
He will not let your foot slip-
He who watches over you will not slumber.
-Psalms 121:2,3

Inside the box

For the consummate nerd, life is a never ending science fair.

Loren is fixing up a heating device for the addition. It utilizes a component that was taken out of the gas furnace.

There's still life in them thar whachamacallits.

In other news, Ma took extreme action and stepped on the scales, this morning. WHEE Doggies! Springs were flyin' all over the place, a sound like thunder rumbled o'er the room and I thought there was a gasping voice that might have said, "Get off....GET OFF !"

Ma has gone and done it, now. Set new records for non-pregnant corpulence.

So I made a few changes: extra half mile on the treadmill and power oatmeal for breakfast.

Gone are the buttered bagels, whose siren call has been faithfully answered, lo these past 3 months.

"Chocolate doesn't' taste good....chips are bad!" is the mantra I must repeat.

But mostly, I just have to ignore the things and people that have been stressing me out.

I hope no one suffers unduly :-D

I so relate to the new records for non-pregnant corpulence!
And I resolve with you to do something about it!
Unfortunately the treadmill I purchased at a moving sale for $15 and waiting for winter use in the lower solarium, was destroyed by the hanging-garden-building-platform crashing down from above solarium. Also my TV trainer, Denise Austin, who I used to follow faithfully, is no longer on. Woe is me!
