A bit more of a personal post today. I’ll get back to more practical things later in the week. I’ve had a cold. There is not much to write about except that I’ve been completely exhausted which makes me think maybe it was Covid. I didn't test so I’ll never know. Are we still testing? Is that still a thing? Anyway, as a result of said exhaustion, I’ve really not been feeling this whole renovation project thing and it makes me question everything.

Everyone who meets me says I’m so laid back. Nothing seems to phase me and I’m always remarkably calm. Indeed, I don’t tend to panic and I rarely have a complete meltdown but that doesn’t mean I don’t have worries. Some of them are silly and pretty unfounded like when I worry about sinkholes and the whole house falling down. In the middle of the night, I have to remind myself it’s stood here for at least 150 years and so it should last a bit longer! But then there are the actual worries and I think those would keep most people from sleeping.
