Water, water everywhere, and not even the high mountain waters are safe to drink

Got my driver's licensed renewed today. Still pass the vision test. Have temporary photo until the new id comes in the mail in a week or so. In the b/w photo I look startled and in the color version I look like a dumpy middle-aged woman -- which, pretty much I am at the moment, I guess, especially with a cold trying to catch me.

fitzw got his eyes checked out today -- it's all good. Yay!

PT progresses. Added a new weighted exercise (just 2 lbs.) this week. Am discovering how pitiful my conditioning is, but hey, if I keep up the PT plus stuff around the farm, I should be in better shape than I've been in a few years. New exercise is lying on my side and using the topside arm, with elbow resting on my torso, to externally rotate the lower part of the arm, holding the weight. Basically, my external rotation is taking its sweet time catching up with everything else. Oh, and now half of my slant wall/counter pushups are on-the-floor knee pushups.

MIL is going to have a small bathroom put into the hall closet adjoining her bedroom (but so she get use it from her room, so moving door, etc.), and also having another closet put in where part of the music room is. Things are moving or will be moving, such as a small organ is supposed to move up to our apartment. That should be interesting... it's very pretty looking though.
Part of getting ready to build the closet was taking out the old chimney at the west end of the house, so L had to move stuff up in the attic, and we also moved stuff out of one of the closets in the apartment. Workers were in most of the day, taking the chimney down and then blocking the holes in the floors/ceilings. More tomorrow, I expect. There'll be a bit more storage space in the attic and 2nd floor now. Yay!

Made decent progress on re-typing of Mom's book today, putting in about 4 hours straight. More tomorrow. Slow-going really, with trying to make my old files from 2005 match the newer hard copy she sent me (PC crash), plus putting in her handwritten changes. But I'm cranking along now because in a week or so I'll probably be starting another project that's going to take serious, dedicated time. Hm, have to remember to do the downstairs bookkeeping tomorrow as well....

Those pictures of the insides of my eyeballs were pretty good...
