I collected the research for sjkasabi's christmas present and put it in a private post, which I've just unlocked.
I just updated my phone plan. Telstra aren't advertising it but if you're on a $10 data plan you might want to give them a ring and update your data allowance from 200MB to 1GB. The phone no is 132200. Doushkasmum and sjkasabi, I'm looking at you.
Coming home from staying at a house that doesn't have your normal clutter is a eye opener. You arrive and realise that the thing you've been putting up with is unacceptable and really easy to fix. It's important to move on this inclination quickly, before the apathy moves back in. Here's what I want to change:
1. I should buy proper, grownup furniture that will fit all of my clothes in it so I don't need to store them on the floor. I also realised that I've always wanted antique furniture so maybe I should just buy it? It's not like I'm a poor student anymore.
2. I don't know what else, but I think I'm going to buy a new mattress for my sofa bed. It will be more conservational than just buying a new sofa bed. OTOH, a quick look at the IKEA website suggests a mattress pad may be the way to go. I see an IKEA visit in my near future.
I want to write the list of things to do. Nothing makes for justifiable procrastination like writing a list, but I've already written it.
I'll have to make do with the list of stuff I need to arrange before we head to the kitchen erection next weekend:
arrange childcare?
source/ get a quote for terracotta shingles
resolve batten spacing to suit the shingles/tiles we decide to use
arrange delivery of 90x45 undressed KD hardwood to site - I'll get lime delivered at the same time.
And here's what else I'd like to cram into this week;
sleep and lying around on the internet
source books to read (yuletide might be an acceptable substitute). Also more Temeraire and Tiffany Aching.
making a tent - I refuse to start until Wednesday, and 6 hours per day is all I want to do.
An IKEA visit (see above)
2 steps towards a tidier, more organised house.
