YEAH, I KNOW, I KNOW...

I didn't do the twice a week blogging. Well, the house has been under renovations: not renovations to make it a really nice house, just renovations to stop it from falling apart or burning down. Structurally it's not a bad house, actually, just one of those poor structures that seems to have been victimized for years by one or more "handymen" who could never do anything quite right.
