little victories!

Last night I put away the pile of CDs sitting beside my computer desk. Said pile has been steadily growing since Easter (National Folk Festival) & includes an order from Camsco, & subsequent purchases & samples from artists wanting a gig.

A few months back I culled about a dozen CDs from the shelves above this desk & the spaces have been obvious ever since. I gave some to our local Folk radio program & the remainder are now door prizes @ my Folk club!

Reason I was shelving CDs at 1pm is they fell like a line of dominos all over the tail end of my CD collection & other stuff that legitimately lives on the floor! (I have too many interests for the space I have in my place)

Yesterday I also pulled out a heap of wool/yarn for my ongoing project (lots of colourful covers for coathangers for charity) & dumped them next to my knitting bag which lives on top of another pile of crafty stuff that has to live on another section of the living room floor.

Today I neatened that pile (starts as mountains, ends as lava flows) & gathered the wool & took it back into my bedroom with my knitting bag & left it all in a carry bag next to my knitting supplies! I also straightened up the pile that the CD dominos fell on & the library books that live under my dining/working table (table is a couple of feet from the CD pile) & now I can comfortably walk between both piles!

I also have a heavy (bulky) jacket to take to a charity shop tomorrow, along with a heap of other stuff, some thrown out by neighbours! And another bag of my unwanted stuff to take to a sale next month,

But I do wish my jam-making friends could use the bag of jars that site on my bedroom floor - but they all have too many jars at the moment. I don't want to have to recycle them which will waste the lids.

Only a zillion more things to sort.

Next I need to continue an email to a handyman mate re the stuff that needs fixing, including an extension to, or better still, a remake of the "shelves" I cobbled together for my Mudcatter CDs. My last 3 CDs don't fit! & the shelves are listing badly ...
