I'm too tired to sit up straight. Laundry's not getting sorted. Oh well. I got out the sorting bins, that's a baby step.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I've made it seven days! No smoking for seven days! *booty shake*
I still totally want to smoke, but I'm not. I'm totally eating a lot but I start my gym and yoga routine this week. Woot!!

I love ranches, and that one has been made more open than the typical ranch, which makes it even easier to navigate.
As smonster says, asbestos is a lot safer undisturbed. Armstrong and some other companies make some attractive ceiling tiles that can go right over popcorn, if you want it to disappear later. It is probably worth having it tested, so you'll know to be careful if something damages the ceiling. It's widely loathed, so you can also cite it as a reason for a lower price.
Having a new electrical box is great, particularly if they also grounded the outlets. What you should check is whether it has aluminum wiring, which was common in '71. If it's been wired to copper at any point, it's a fire hazard.

Yay for not smoking! I will continue to refrain from describing my father's last years with emphysema.

Two bits of good news on the house. There are hardwoods under all the bedroom rugs and there is insulation in the garage, which means that we can heat that area to put a washer and dryer in there. There are already hot and cold water taps in the garage.
