DAY 5 7:30
Fed the ''children'' at 5:30 and now they think the lounge, passage and my bedroom is part of the Monza track in Grand Prix , the 2 small one's is neck to neck and the big black ones are playing spectators - little misfits - I could have been sleeping. It's still quiet outside but the local jay-walkers will pop out of their hovels just now. Finished NARCOS Mexico last night and started S1of Narcos . Will keep you updated.
16:20
Seems like the people are more relaxed and less edgy over the lock down , less ppl in general and no loiters today. Seems I have a problem , the geiser outside my cottage started leaking , opened the plastic cover, 8 #13 bolts is holing a seal or something , tightened them , water slowed down but still dripping , can I call Nedbank home insurance or is there a remedy ?
Glad you got this sorted.
 
Today is more of a relaxed day than all the others before this.
Played monopoly till the early hours of the morning and the game is set to continue today,but for now a nice boring movie works just fine.Screenshot_20200402-162258~2.png
 
Day 7 of the Lockdown, Day 2 of the "Sort-&-Purge". It is slow going, I have this tendency to first sit and overthink every item I pick up o_O. We'll get there.... eventually....;)IMG_20200402_163307.jpg
 
Two items you probably didn't know you had.
Or did you?

I can relate to this @Dela Rey Steyn

I find things i hoard and then say to myself, i havent used it in like 2 years and probably won't - so I agree with @JurgensSt sentiments - but then a thought comes into my mind - "What if..."

And then I get into trouble with my wife because she cannot believe I keep all these things for "in case".

Crazy - I know - and the problem is the stuff builds up and one puts off the purge - until one day its a BIG job...

Lol

I used to have no problem throwing/giving stuff away. But in the past 2 years I have had a dozen cases of : "dammit! I just threw that out the other day!" when I needed something. So my process is very stringent now. I mentally go through all the places I can/could use the item. If I can't think of one, then it gets binned. Makes for slow progress and an irate SWAMBO, but atleast the garage is mine to do with as I please. Just running out of space lol.

I know that feeling. You want to, but as soon as it's gone you need it and you have to buy a whole length of pipe for a ruler sized pieces needed and you end up with more left over than the first time.
Tough decision bro.
Try to organise as best you can.
