Happy Thursday!
Today is an inside day...cold, drizzly, yucky outside. But inside the furnace is set to 68, the lights give off their glow and my log cabin in the woods is protecting me from all the elements. I spent 83 minutes on the exercise bike riding 22 miles this morning and I'll be enjoying a protein shake in the next few minutes. Life is good.
Yesterday I got in 5,925 steps...just missed my 6,000 step goal. If I had known I was that close I would have walked around the house a couple of times! Until yesterday I had a Nokia smartphone with a Windows operating system. The speaker quit working intermittently so I stopped at the Verizon store and traded it in on a Motorola Droid Turbo. Truthfully, I don't know what much of the stuff does, but it has an Android operating system so I can get the Fitbit app to work on my phone and keep track of my steps without firing up my computer! Woo Hoo! Now I just have to figure out how to use the phone! In the past 3 or 4 members of my family got new phones at the same time and we'd all work together to figure things out...I'm on my own this time and since GoodMan is not a fan of Google...he's not much help. lol!
We have two pool parties scheduled here this weekend and the pool heater is not working properly (maybe because it was left on so long a couple of weeks ago?) I've called all over and no one wants to work on it. Of course all the HVAC guys are working on home furnaces and that is much more important than a pool furnace...but I was really hoping to keep the pool open until after our family Christmas celebration in mid December. Hopefully, I can help the furnace limp along until then or until the HVAC guys get a break.
I'm going to try staining the logs on the inside of the house today. We stained all the outside last spring and it looks soooo good. I want to use the same color inside as outside, but it is pretty dark (I think it looks like Tootsie Roll brown). I just think it would be weird to have logs one color inside and a different color outside. I'm going to test in out in one of the guest rooms. If I don't like it at least it will only be in one room.
Make your Thursday thoroughly terrific!
