In a post a while back, I think I mentioned that we went to four weddings this summer. Three of them involved dancing, and I remember talking to DH about how a side benefit of running was being able to dance all night and not be exhausted afterwards. Well, tonight we identified another benefit that had never crossed my mind - pumping up an air mattress. We are in the middle of kitchen renovations and for various reasons it would be easier to sleep in the basement for at least a couple of nights, so DH went out and got an air mattress that has a foot pump. Pumping it up was tedious but really not tiring - my legs work a lot harder than that during a long run!

We have never slept in the basement before so it will be interesting. Just us and the cats, camping out in our own house. They're a little miffed at not being allowed upstairs tonight but since we're here with them they should be okay.
