An oatmeal morning

ksmithThe window thermometer reads 50F (10C), which is a little nippy. I left windows open overnight--thus did the hall thermostat indicate a temp of 64F (18C), which is a little cool when you're not yet acclimated. I'm running the furnace for a bit. On the first of September.
I actually ran it on Sunday morning for the same reasons. Furnace in August. I feel like I'm in New England already.
Not a cold cereal morning. Oatmeal. With brown sugar and banana. Not the steel-cut stuff. McCann's Quick Cooking Oats, which were really pretty good. There's a recipe for chewy oatmeal cookies that I will have to try.
Exterminators will be here today. Thought they'd be here yesterday, but rescheduling required.
Awoke to another dropped internet connection. Reset the modem a couple of times, then reset my MacBook location until something clicked. I know I should poke around for the root cause, but I just don't feel like dealing with shutting things down and powering them up and rewiring and calling people. I know it's not the laptop because neither the old iBook or the work Dell can get on either, even though they indicate that they are connected to the wireless. TV and phone are fine, so it isn't the overall cable connection. Modem or router. It could even be a cable, come to that.
No suggestions requested. I'll do something about it eventually, probably around the time it goes south completely.
