Unexpected organizing

Jul 14, 2009 12:55

By ten thirty this morning, I'd done something I'd not expected to: I'd organized my stationery/cards/paper collection/stickers/envelopes caddy. I was looking for a few things as I'm in a big week of getting out letters and a couple of little gifties, and I couldn't find a damn thing. The caddy was a wreck. But now it's organized, at least for a while! And I put a bunch of the more office supply stuff in an actual drawer. In doing this, I found a button: the unique button that had come off one of my favorite suits that I've not been able to wear in three years because I was missing the button and I'd been too lazy to go to a fabric store, find new buttons, and replace them. Now I can repair the suit! Which is somewhere in a bag, unfortunately... but that's a project for the weekend.

It's been a productive morning. Decent day at work yesterday, and I'm expecting more of the same today. I'm in a bit of a bind in that I'll need to iron whatever I'm going to wear and my housemate ended up coming home by 10:30 because they canceled all of her appointments today, but she still got paid. So she went upstairs and is napping. The ironing board is loud, so if/when I open it, it'll wake her up. But if she's not up by 1:45 or so, too bad.

Am feeling very confident about life, keeping up with people, and continuing to take positive steps while channeling my creativity. I'm going to start on a new Wraeththu fic and have a couple of books I've requested from the library for background research. :) So... yay. And I still have a couple episodes of Torchwood CoE to watch. I was more than happy to read the spoilers; I'd rather know.

And not a bumper sticker funny, but a license plate holder funny:
"Don't honk- Dvórak playing."

You never know what you'll see around Portland.
