Thankful Thursday

[mdlbear]

Today I am grateful for...

• Eggs and English muffins.
• Something warm and soothing to drink before bed (instant hot chocolate last night). Why had I not figured that out earlier? Or maybe I did and forgot. I do seem to sleep better, although that's based on a sample size of only five nights total spread over several weeks.
• Tea and other drinkables left by the previous occupant of the ADU I'm living in.
• Likewise, an electric kettle.
• Improvement in guitar playing, singing, and walking. Very slow improvement, but it's greater than zero. And not an infinitesimal -- I don't think nonstandard analysis is supposed to be used with real-world measurements.

ADU?

[mdlbear]

Auxiliary Dwelling Unit. Also called mother-in-law apartment, etc. In this case it's a converted garage.

Aha! What we in Australia might call

"a granny flat"

is it insulated? a converted garage sounds like it might be bitterly cold in winter

I'm not sure about the walls and ceiling; the floor is concrete with several layers of carpet over most of it. But there's a good heater, some good blankets, and it never gets very cold here anyway. (Seattle -- lots of rain, but it doesn't spend much time below freezing.)
