    Whoo, what a long day. Out to the city for movie, chat with friend, lunch at a HK cafe to satiate my cravings (Ovaltine! And yu xiang eggplant and you tiao), then sitting with my friend for hours of driving as she just bought a car and only recently got her licence and wanted to practice driving various routes including all the way across town… had a video call with a family member in between… I’m ready for bed now honestly. Also it’s cold again. zzzzzz.

    Finally found all my micro USB cables, and a watch I’ve got looking for about a month or so.

    My girlfriend will collect things up in a grocery bag and dump it in the front room, or even on my desk, when she wants to clean and feel productive.

    Unfortunately that just moves a bunch of unrelated things into a bag together that becomes harder to go through and I lose things because nothing is in a place that makes sense anymore

      Ugh Mr P does the grocery bag thing too, just takes everything he feels is superfluous to the room, bag it up or toss it into random containers and dump it in a cupboard or under a bed. I hate it as it then becomes a separate more involved job to go through all the containers and bags and put stuff away like it should have been.

        That was the situation with my watch. There are two places I usually put my watches and it was in neither of them so I couldn’t find it. Then I’m looking for a USB cable that will actually transfer data and there it is in a bag with all this other stuff

      I had 2 cable bags and a small container in my cupboard all full of random cables I’ve collected over time, and when ol mate was rifling through my cupboard he tipped them all over the place, and I don’t know where anything is. And it’s even more annoying because I don’t actually know everything I had in them, so it’s difficult to replace. Until I need it of course, and realise “hey that connector looks familiar, I’m sure I have one somewhere!”

      Reading this is making me twitchy.

      I am big into storing things in a systematic way so everything is easy to find and nothing is lost, my husband likes everything to be out or maybe he is just lazy

        My girlfriend wants to be like this but it doesn’t fully happen. She also goes and cleans up all my stuff when the back part of the house is a complete mess and that’s all her mother’s stuff that could mostly be gotten rid of

        Rule in our house is if it’s not yours don’t fucking touch it. Make the other person clean that shit.

        Dishes? fine. Old beer/coke cans? Fine. Work bag? In his office. Paperwork / watch / gym stuff? “go put your shit away dude”

          I’m pretty tolerant until half the plates and cutlery are still in there and the mess/dirt starts tracking into the rest of the house

    I got scattered sleep last night and probably only slept for five hours. Today was meant to be assignment day. We shall seize the day regardless.

      I felt like I got the same amount despite trying to go to bed early last night.

      Didn’t feel rested when I woke up.

    Another eBay item sold. If my postage calculations are correct I am now $12 richer in money and one shoe-box size richer in space.

    wiggles on bed alongside a pair of wiggly cats

    They got breakfast when i had a five am pee, but they managed to swindle a second breakfast on Friday so now they’re being extra coquettish in hopes of a repeat performance

    Went to a cardio class where we had to accumulate distance on the bikes and rowers as a team. My team came second last, but the team that came last had their bike reset the metres in the one of the rounds. Was a good workout regardless. Feel better than I would have if I didn’t do anything :)

    Chilli seeds are in on the prop. heat mat. This year (hopefully if they germinate) it will be just thai, habs and birdseye (if they overwintered).

    Today’s major thing is digging over the soil that’s been trampled and compacted from doing the retaining wall. Soil is uneven af now and there’s a fair bit of it and I’m running outta radox and ibuprofen.

    Cleaning the house top to bottom. It’s a big place and it’s so easy to ignore until it’s too messy.

    Not exactly exciting, but necessary

      my place hasn’t been cleaner for a long time but it’s untidy because of all the sorting and chucking out of stuff and the furniture restoring , drives me nuts

      so I suppose I’m saying, how can people take just a few hours to clean the whole house? I seem to do so much housework but it’s never clean and tidy

        It’s just me and Gibson so it’s fairly easy to clean. I’ll be moving to a smaller place later this year, and I’m looking forward to less rooms to clean.

        And also not living next to crack heads, not having insulation, closer to civilisation and paying less per month.
