Whimper

Yesterday, I was finally over the most recent cold enough to tackle some laundry. So I did three four five loads yesterday. And put everything away. I also did some dishes.

Today? Today I'm barely able to move. Already on the painkillers. Which sucks, because I'd like to run a few errands. Have I mentioned that living on blood thinners sucked recently? Oh, well. I do need to take some garbage out, but I think that's going to be the extent of my activity today.

The thing that is really vexing me is the lighting fixture/ceiling fan in the kitchen. I tried to remove a burnt-out bulb, and the glass part came out without the base. I have no idea how to get the base out. This may be one of those times when I punt and call the landlord.

Lovely foggy morning today. Let's have more of that.

Trust me, I'm wearing my work gloves when I do this, and they are shock-resistant.

Part of the reason I'm think of calling the landlord is I'm a fall risk. Standing on the step stool might not be the best plan.

VERY good reasons to call the landlord to deal with it for you.

Any friends and family right near by that can pop over and help as well.

Call the landlord. Blood thinners and falls are a massively bad mixture.

Besides, he's probably lonely. :-)
