What do you call pipes and sprinklers for the garden? Irrigation?
I guess so, that or āsprinkler system.ā
Iām going to start adding āAustraliaā to my search terms when Iām googling one of those mystery words.
I bought a new bed pillow.
Itās beenā¦ 17 years? Lol. Iāve been using two flight pillow stacked together for the last 5 (friend who works at airport snagged them for me, lol-theyāre awful).
Yay new pillow (itās too poofy).
I hosted a dinner party on Friday. When guests brought beverages that needed to be refrigerated, I was embarrassed that my fridge was so full of āscience experimentsā that the bottles didnāt really fit.
Today I disposed of all the old former food! It was fully half the contents of my refrigerator.
(I considered posting this in the decluttering thread, but I think it fits better here.)
I just contacted a landscaper for a quote on some work.
Earlier today I called and made an appointment for a haircut.
Just made my next OT appointment, which Iād forgotten to book at my last appointment like I normally do.
Messaged the ābossā of my easier/newer volunteer gig to quit. Blergh. I donāt feel great, but I did it
Got my shit together to do the sample sale Iāve needed to do for a year now to clear out older inventory. Now letās hope it sells
Is there stuff in my size? If yes, will come peruse.
There is! Thereās not a ton because itās all samples but Iāve got everything except small in 3 colors
Yesterday:
Went to the dentist.
Planted some bulbs and other things outside.
Finished a book Iāve been working on for at least two months.
I recently came across a concept that instead of waiting until youāre in a good mood to get things done, you should get things done in order to boost your mood. I think thereās some truth to that so Iām trying to implement that mindset without overwhelming myself.
I need start repeating this to myself everyday.
Me too! I know Iāve heard/read it in the past year and find it a very helpful reminder, but I havenāt internalized it yet.
Booked cleaner, had the house cleaned, enjoyed the cleanliness of the house. Success!
I have booked an air-conditioner service and am currently arranging a locksmith to replace the locks on my sliding doors so we can enjoy the cool summer breezes in a couple of months.
I finally looked up all the dentists in my suburb and have chosen one Iām willing to have prod around in my mouth. I have also cancelled a different appointment that I donāt need at this point, and will reschedule it later.
Without excess of boring detail, I had a catch up chat sesh with my cousin overseas and it went well!
These are difficult relationships to sustain. I think social medial makes it a lot easier, due to low-stakes keeping tabs on each otherās activities/jokes/etc and no-pressure opportunities for interaction. That is, if you use the same networks, which we do notā¦
Good on you for putting effort into a good relationship!
I packed away a portion of our toys, and I feel better that we now have exciting toys to bring out on bad days.
I purchased an ergonomic keyboard and mouse. I should have done this about 12 months ago. Nevermind, theyāre on their way and Iāll have them next week.
I called and make an acupuncture appointment. They had an opening this afternoon, so I also went and did it. Back again Thursday, and Iāll be going twice a week until the baby is here . Not sure why I was dragging my feet on going back- I went there for fertility and through the first trimester. Put it off for a couple weeks after I was āsupposedā to go back though. Brains are weird.
Iām working through a long, tedious administrative task. I will appreciate it once itās done, but right now itās boring and I have insufficient snacks.
