I continued to do small garden tasks during weeks 15 & 16. I failed to send off the boxes of clothes from the back room, or tackle anything in the living room.

Week 17, this bit me. With 16 hours notice, I had to empty and dismantle two of the four shelving units in the room, to make space for a large heirloom bookcase (made for spouse's grandparents) which my mother-in-law discovered on moving house did not fit through any of the doors of her new home, and shipped to us instead.

gory details of glorious success )

We are now a day into week 18, and I have just got Elder Offspring to start cleaning the heirloom bookcase, which had got quite dusty in storage and transit

Plan for the rest of week 18:

  • move the assorted DVDs and CDs from storage crates onto the freshly-cleaned bookcase
  • (and improve the organisation thereof while doing so)
  • move the booze back onto the higher shelves
  • move the jigsaws for consideration into any remaining shelves, so they can be gone through less urgently, and we can use the dining table again
  • fix the shelf issue with Unit 3 I spotted during my frantic delivery preparation but didn't have time to fix then
  • with the booze moved, I can access the shipping boxes in the back room, so actually book courier collection for them

I probably should get back into the garden, which is still not in a usable state, and the strimmed weeds are showing signs of regrowing, but I can't see that I will have time this week. Next week maybe.
