It's been rainy and yucky here, and I'm feeling a bit housebound. Q has too many toys and so she isn't playing with any of them. My willpower is failing me with respect to the ever-present sweets. They all went to chik-fil-a tonight (go for the playground, stay for the chicken), so I had some oatmeal and a banana in some yogurt.

We're still contemplating the house. If we get them to agree to fix everything and have it reinspected, should we still get it? Or should we just give it up and start looking again? What should we compromise on-- proximity to campus, size, neighborhood, busyness of street?
