state of the thing
Feb. 22nd, 2024 09:02 amFirst up: new phone acquired! I shall now spend the next week or so being completely flummoxed by it and at least the next several days being in that weird limbo where you're super excited by the shiny newness (and the fact that it works at all) and forgetting that it does not work like ye olde phone.
Second: New shower curtain rods for all and new shower curtain for me. :D I might take a picture now that I have a phone that will (ye olde phone said fuck that noise about a month ago) because the combo of the new shower curtain and the shiny gem hooks makes me happy. Sometimes I forget just how much I'm a purple girl annnnnd then I get a bunch of things in purple and my soul all but purrs and well, I remember. Replaced the rod, hooks, and liner on Mom's as well, but she likes her shower curtain so we kept that.
Third. New fan for my room. I have mixed feelings about it. I liked my old fan. It had charm and when it hadn't blown out a lightbulb, it made my room BRIGHT. This isn't as needed during sunny days if I'm feeling like leaving the curtains open, but I sleep during the day so I need light at night desperately. The new one at its brightest is about what my old one was with half the bulbs burned out and a third on its last leg. BUT the fan itself is pretty powerful. I just wish I liked the look of it more. Sigh. Oh, here it is.
On the plus side, I did get another lamp like the one I got right before Christmas and it's small but mighty. Then again, I only got another one of those because my fan/light died so... *shrug*
Pretty sure all but one of my Etsy purchases have arrived, so maybe this weekend I'll get pics up of Prue and her stuff.
Maybe not though, as my brother and nephew made good on their Christmas gift for me and got me some storage boxes for the shed to put my holiday stuff in. So this weekend I'll likely be playing tetris with my holiday stuff.
And maybe buying a rug for the living room because it was nice having one there briefly. (Mom's bedframe kept moving around so got her a rug to keep it from moving and had to leave it out in the LR to air out and to wait for the Mattress Firm guys to come by and swap out the frames. )
