Little Things
Sep. 3rd, 2013 10:01 amYesterday was a good day.
For reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture, I've been thinking for a little while that it would be nice to get a comfortable chair for my bedroom, so I can sit in there with my laptop. I really wasn't sure where to start, but after seeing lots of expensive and not at all the right sort of chairs online, I decided to look in the various charity second-hand furniture shops in town. I found exactly what I was looking for in the Sue Ryder shop - not just the comfortable armchair I thought it was but actually a La-Z-Boy (think the US pronunciation) recliner, in pretty good condition, for less than £40. :-)
In order to get the chair into my room, I had to do some clearing up of the Piles of Junk(TM) that always accumulate because companies will insist on sending me stuff, and lots of TS paperwork. After a couple of hours, I had a lot of recycling, some rubbish, and some much more organised paperwork - it really felt like I'd achieved something.
Finally, to top off an excellent day I finally managed to finish screen 133 on Candy Crush, which I've been stuck on for weeks. :-) I'm sure I'll be reverting to the mean soon, but in the meantime I'm enjoying it.
