Wednesday Good thing/Bad Thing

Good: The electrician came yesterday and fixed several things that needed fixing - disconnecting the old, scary boiler, putting in GFI's, fixing the exterior plug that was open to the elements.

Bad: He turned off the new, non-scary boiler and we didn't notice until we woke cold this morning.

Good: I'm back on the wagon losing weight.

Bad: Despite the 50 lbs I took off, alderfather has not yet quit smoking. Everyone now! Boo, hiss, Bad Father!!

Good: For only the second time since going on his sugar-cat diet, Drake let me sleep through the night without demanding food.

Bad: Nightmares anyway.

clare_dragonfly's Garden of Prose writing is awesome, check it out.

And I began an Autumn story (LJ) in hopes of getting more comments on Meeks' sketch of Autumn (DW) ; for every comment, I'll post 100 more words.
