Truly flattened
Apr. 4th, 2022 07:02 pmToday I got up an hour earlier than usual because I wanted to go to the post office and pay the gas bill I apparently owe the company before the cleaning lady would arrive. (I'll go to the bank tomorrow and try to figure out what went wrong with the transfer they were supposed to make.)
Then I spent a horrid amount of money in the supermarket, because they had several things on sale, which is always a trap. But at least I'm well stocked with baking margarine, flour, dry yeast and the likes.
Then we had the big badass Spring cleaning, which included all windows, the Venetian blinds and the curtains, aside from the usual stuff. It took the cleaning lady and my battered self four hours to get it done - my part being mainly moving the furniture around, handing her the things she needed, as well as emptying and re-furbishing the balcony. Half of my household was in the corridor for the best part of the day, all of which had to be put back to their place.
Fortunately, I'd cooked in advance for today, so we had lunch at, oh, shortly after 4pm. Then I did a tiny bit of sewing - all puzzle squares for the castle puzzle page are now finished, and I even forced myself to sew on two further pieces of Velcro, so I'll only have to do 7 more tomorrow. And all 6 lines with which the background will be safely stitched to the base page. But that can wait. I'm fully and truly done in for today.
