I am an insane idiot. Or so my body says. On the other hand, we actually have a functional pantry for the first time in 26 years. (I used a Chinese screen to "curtain off" a corner of the living room by the kitchen, and put shelving in it. This is an old summer cottage and had no pantries, closets, or storage to speak of.)
Sounds a good idea.
I have just punished my body by doing a bit of gardening. I must now get back to the sorting.
I am so reluctant to get rid of memorabilia. I’m filling plastic tubs, duly labelled, wondering if I will ever look inside again.
I found the farewell comments my Head made when I retired. What happened to that organised, efficient person? Life was so busy then, I had to be. Now things just go on the back burner.
The date of my holiday is looming fast - so it's time to organise my suitcase (already sort of half packed) - and I'm going to take it into work to weigh it, since I'm only allowed 15kg on the plane. (Half of it is books for my mum, so I'll be a lot lighter coming back!)
Then I can do a bit of pottering - weeds have sprung up in the garden now it's started raining, so I'll go out with the trowel when the rain stops.
This evening I'm going to a party at the Cabinet of Curiosities, for all the people who have helped them with their idea for a local museum of botanic art and the natural world. They're about to have some major renovations done in the old house which is housing the collection.
