Long overdue tasks

[wiseheart]

I've finally rearranged my wardrobe for the winter: light clothes put in the back of the shelves, warm clothes brought forward. It's a boring and tedious task I have to do twice a year because my built-in wardrobe, while providing a lot of storage space, in rather impractical. I have to climb onto a ladder to do this, and I'm known to be scared by heights. And yes, three steps on the ladder count as high in my book!

Still, it's done, so I've got my peace for another six months or so. Then I cooked lunch - turkey ragout with mushrooms and taragon, yum! - and nearly finished Chapter 11 of SD5, which was unexpected. I'm well content with the achievements of the day.

Soon, Advent time will be opened on German TV by Das Fest der 100000 Lichter, which Mum and I are going to watch together. It is basically a pre-Christmas show, with Christmas music, stories, poems and dance; we like it a lot. I've taken down the Adventskranz and the Holzkrippe while rearranging the wardrobe, so we're well armed for Advent to come. ;))

I'm afraid of heights as well, and yes, the 2 step ladder I use to get to the top shelves of my wardrobe is high enough!
So I know what you're talking about.

I feel positively heroic for daring to climb all those dizzying heights today. ;)

Sounds tasty.
Interesting show. Is it just a few hours?

I need to drop some summer blouses to the bottom row in my own wardrobe, and replace them with jumpers. Do you get Christmas music and/or TV movie channels over there? I was listening to Christmas music the other day.

I hope you´re not offended by me barging into your LJ. Found you via curiouswombat and just love your handicraft and baking skills. I snitched some of your recipes for cookies, those are more to my liking than the ones posted on recipe_comm! And I am such a scaredy-pants, too, when it comes to climbing a ladder, so that my husband of many years voluntarily takes action and brings down the things I need!

Oh, no problem, come on and make yourself comfortable! I like finding new friends - it's a lot more promising this way than through one of those friendzy actions. I rarely find there people of similar interests.

If you click on my cookie recipes tag you'll find an awful lot of them, and I even have a board over at Pinterest with recipes and pictures, too. Look here (https://hu.pinterest.com/ekunster/kuchenrezepte/). Most of them are in German, but there are some English ones, too; besides, Google translator is supposed to work on such things. Even if I'm too lame to use it. *g*

Ladders are scary after the first step, so always nice when the ladder tasks are safely over.
