declutter my house (read all 13 entries…)
Untitled 3 months ago

I didn’t get it looking perfect before the trip, and it would have been fine if they’d only fed the cats on the day we told them, however later on Sunday my daughter texted to say her grandparents had been to church and ‘accidentally called round and fed the cats’ again, even though we were returning that day. I took that to mean that my mother wanted to have a nosey around the house without the pesky grandkids reporting back. Oh well.

So yesterday, Thursday 13th. My cats have had an increase in flea activity since we have been home, and the kids’ bedroom carpets were particularly unpleasant in this regard, so I decided to battle them by natural means. My son’s bedroom in particular had all of his favourite possessions out on the floor on ‘display’ (getting dusty) and has been complaining he can’t get any more stuff because there’s simply no room. I assured him that if we just reorganise his storage options (mainly under his bed in many plastic boxes) he can have a few things out here and there, and rotate them from time to time, bringing out ‘new’ things from storage and putting away those he’s had out for a while. This will breathe new life into his old collections. He collects Bionicles and Qees, the newest of which is a ‘Domo’ we bought him in Forbidden Planet. Oh and his favourite boxed model from the game Bioshock. He’s still paying me back for that one!
Anyway, yesterday I chucked all the Bionicles and stuff on his stripped bed, vacuumed, dusted, put down flea powder (homemade) and left the room till evening, vacuumed again and then put all his bionicles back on the floor. He came in and said it looked great, and that he wants to help me today (to sort out all his boxed stuff etc). It’s gonna be a huge job, there are hundreds of Bionicles in boxes under that bed…



Early to bed, Early to rise (read all 8 entries…)
Wednesday night 3 months ago

I went to bed at 10:30 and was still awake (talking, kids up and down the stairs, etc) at 11:10pm but I drifted off somehow and woke naturally at 6:30am but I felt hungover so I drank some water and went back to bed. No, I had not been drinking the night before! I finally dragged myself out of bed at about 8:15am.

Tonight I should sleep really well, I’ve done lots of housework (vacuuming especially) and changed the bed linens in all three bedrooms – that, coupled with lovely clean sheets, should add up to a much better night’s sleep. Perhaps I will have a cool bath before I go to sleep. Last night was far too hot for my liking and I awoke to sheets that smelled bad and felt sweaty :(

I knitted a beret and another Calorimetry 3 months ago

a few months back. I joined ravelry you see, and I found their project adding feature to be really inspiring! I added loads of new projects on there and got stuck into the beret right away. I must get back into it.
I got a bit slowed cos I had to relearn continental style cos I had gotten purl all wrong. It was much easier once I found a continental purl tutorial on YouTube.
I find continental style to be much quicker than the method by which I was taught.
Anyone already on ravelry, my iD is currently velvetbunny.
