wysiwyg Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House (1682* d) RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House 19 Jun 18


Charmion, ouchies! :-( Kudos though on that Requiem-- the Faure is my favorite to hear and to sing. IMO it's performed too seldom, in favor of heavier, showier vocal extravaganzas. There's a delicacy of tone and stucture in the Faure, gently holding such beautiful melody-- sweet but not saccharine.

Ohio:

I had to forego an important lunch due to digestive issues, so I used the no-lunch time to remove and baste the 2nd of 2 collars on the 4 seersucker shirts I bought recently, while hearing Congress on CSPAN.

The hearing went on a lunch break, so rather than hear the Trump rally that followed, I loaded the DW and put away the clean glassware I'd unpacked last week (all of which survived the trip and the DW). Nice to see the cabinet shelf categories working out and filling up-- one side is mugs below, with barware above; the other side is everyday plastics, with better glassware above. There's room on both sides for more to be found and unpacked-- the best of the rest for company use.

The cabinets are mounted unusually high and I'm short, so eye level placement for everyday items is more sessentiak than ever. But I live the extra canister height available.

Another category I can unpack when I come across it is china platters and serving bowls, into the lower china cabinet shelves. It's dark under there--needs motion light and mirror. I'm hoping to leave most of the upper, glassed display space for cheery decor amid silver servingware. Horizontal surfaces for decor here elsewhere are in short supply now, and will remain so.

(This is the unpacking stage-- 6 weeks behind schedule-- when I'll rely heavily on my March planning memories and the specific box labeling I did then-- now that daily shocks of Hordedom seem reduced to a manageable level.)

I hope to make the last 2 new shirts wearable when the hearing resumes. Two colors are spring/summery and two more fall-suited. I should put 2 away... but not until more PA shirts are here. It's so rare to find seersucker in my size, I wish I could get more.
