A Little Update

A little update, to keep me going…

A little list of a few things. I spent around eight hours cleaning and tidying on Sunday. Now, I only have one room left to organise.

All of the Christmas presents were organised. Everyone’s presents and cards are all together. The only thing I have left to buy are the frames for all of the diamond paintings. Never mind. I have just spent all evening trying to find some. The cheapest mount and backing board duo on a website came to just under £50 for all seven, so I will have to make them myself too. I have just reserved the foam board, card and canvas tape for them, which I am hoping to collect after work on Thursday (late Birmingham trading hours). And it only came to £17 for all of the materials

The kitchen, including the pantry cupboard, are all tidy and organised. Everything has a place. I know where everything is. I have stockpiled most necessities. I just need some bottled water, passata and to replace the tin of chopped tomatoes that I used for my batch cook of stew for the week. Oh and I had cereal for the first time since the day after Valentine’s Day. That reminds me, I might like to buy some cereal for my pantry cupboard.

I cleaned and tidied the living room. Everything that is there, now, should be there. I only have one miscellaneous pile of belongings that has been transferred to the bedroom. The bathroom and hallway have both been cleaned too. Oh and the balcony was disinfected.

I finally got around to sticking up my window stickers too. I think they make my windows look pretty.

 

 

I enjoyed a bath for the first time since… I have no idea when I last had a bath. I am scared of how much water I used this weekend, because I washed my hair and used the washing machine. Note to self, check and log water meter reading.

I found two packs of beads during my tidying. I haven’t made bracelets since 2022, so I got out my bracelet making string and I made these two and I wore them both today too.

 

 

  

I finally hung up my Shakespeare’s Folio that I made a while back as well. That is now on my wall in the hallway.

 

 Oh and I hung my absolute most favourite painting I have ever bought up the other weekend too. I love me cutie ghostie. He now permanently lives in my living room.

 

 And just for fun, here is my cute, little Jack-O'-Lantern that I made this year. I wasn’t in a Halloween mood, and I am not going to be in a Christmas mood this year and I refuse to put any decorations up.

 

 

 

Oh and I am super excited, because I am typing on my Bluetooth typewriter keyboard, which I love. It is mint green and ties in with all of my room accents.
