NaJoPoMo, Nov 12: Like the Way I do

For no other apparent reason than it played on my iPad in the bathroom while I "made myself ready" to head off to a family multiple-birthday dinner thing.
On my feet again after two days spent horisontally 
And we spent the day almost ordering a new wood-fire stove for upstairs (where the living room is). The old one's old (!) and inefficient and too big for the room, especially after the extra insulation has been put in now. And while a sauna is nice - not in the living room.
And the best thing of it all is that it comes in under the total cost of the roof project. The roof will be a month and a half late. And per day it costs the roofer a fine (standard in his contract) - which will pay for most of the new stove

Sauna... 
No Finnish home is complete unless it has a sauna, but living in Sweden, it's not so common... I once read an amusing story (was it you who linked to it? Maybe it was I?) about a Brit's first sauna experience, watching the temperature going up to 100ºC and thinking his blood would be boiling. Which it won't, of course.

Wasn't me. The one about the American experiencing lutefisk in Norway I'll confess to

Glad you're feeling better. What is this Sudden Fever everyone's getting? Everyone is getting it.
