Today, I

sorted a big pile on the spare room floor into
a) keep or rehome;
b) laundry to wash;
c) recycling;
d) deal with later

There's still a lot of pile left, but I did as much work as I could before I went SPLAT with exhaustion

sorted 32L of recycling into the outside recycling bin

phone call to organise prescription medication

phone call to gas company to see if there was a fault, because my pilot light keeps going out

This sounds like quite an immense sorting-out project you’re engaged in! I’m impressed by your ongoing efforts.

Thank you!

I am moving house, and I have big piles to deal with in

my bedroom;

bedroom #2;

bedroom #3;

loungeroom

the piles are a mixture of stuff I want to keep and rubbish/recycling, so they can't just be thrown out wholesale...

Oof, yes. The last time I moved house was 9 years ago, and I still remember the pain. I hope to never have to do it again.

Been there, done that. My family and I even moved cross-country back in 1985. That was a bear. Lots of fond memories of the time before that move, and it's been really good here too.

I made the plum liqueur I’ve been making every year for the last few years (except I skipped last year and I regret it!). It takes about a year to be ready, but it’s incredibly delicious once it’s done.

Oh, excellent!

I put away clean laundry, showered & did my hair. Called apt management 2 times, 1 time about lease renewal, & 1 time about a terrible sewage smell. They were working on the apt next door. Not sure what happened or why but im glad its gone.

Also aired out the apt due to the aforementioned smell.

[nou]

Boo to smells!

[readera]

Thank goodness it didn't last too long.

Hung out with my neighbor across the hall, and had my first official? meditation. It was actually done via an app which he has, and it was nice. Even though I've never really needed that sort of thing, I'm glad I participated and I learned something in the process.

Laundry and a brief session w/my tutor. He had to briefly talk w/a downstairs neighbor and then go home to meet with someone. But he's coming back tomorrow.

Yay for laundry and socialising!

Called for meds refills and picked them up.

Called the eye doctor to make an appointment. It's been over TEN YEARS since I last had my eyes checked, so I am well overdue. I didn't go for so long due to lack of money, but I finally have some money to spare and surprise! When I checked I discovered my insurance covers most of it anyway! So I probably could have gone much sooner, but at least the appointment is all set up now.

Pampered myself with another music purchase, then did some crochet while listening to the newly downloaded album.

Wr ote an entry in my journal detailing my latest accomplishment in one of my mobile games. Who knows if anybody cares to read such entries, but I do enjoy writing them.

[nou]

Hurrah for self-care!

Congratulations on accomplishments and music and eye check appointments. And getting the meds refilled.

I was able to recognize a place where effort would not be fruitful and avoid engaging past the point of a subtweet.

Did helpful things like dishes and robot vacuum maintenance upstairs, then went downstairs to sort through more boxes of crapft supplies.

Posted a box of the miscellaneous office supplies for sale. (If it doesn't get bites, I'll list it for free to maybe make it go away.)
