Today my new fridge freezer arrived. I havent turned it on yet cause you are meant to let it settle, but it looks very shiny, so that's good.
They took the old one away as well. It had gone all wobbly and they round one of the feet broken before they moved it so it is good it went when it did.

Other than that it is Too Warm in here and I don't get why my flat is hotter on days it isnt even hotter outside. Rubbish temperature. I think the temp is dropping in here now but it's really hard getting any airflow at all so I am not sure that's going to work.

I spent the day playing Wrath of the Righteous again. I am really sure I am not lawful and I should have quit this aeon play through before now. But the unique story effects are just interesting enough I havent quit yet. It's just I didnt feel any sense of achievement or doing something worthy when I locked in their path in front of two goddesses, and if you arent feeling it then you arent feeling it.

Pretty okay day but weather sucks.

Today I tried to get some old tasks finished before the new year
by actually assembling the flatpack thingy
but it turns out two of the pieces just dont fit.
wrong size.
wont fit.
and I feel like the stuff it is made from is not going to respond well to attempts to chop a bit off.

So now I get to decide if I should put it together without those bits
or
donate the whole thing unfinished.

... donate is obviously the tempting one. I'm sure they can figure it out...

But I tried!
many things were going together quite well until that bit.

ah well.

I have a new mattress to go with my new this year bed :-)
... it is Tall and also a little wide and long? I am not quite sure it fits... :-/
But the longer I lie on it so far the more I like it :-)



I also have hiccups
and I had to take the plastic off after they delivered it onto the bed, so that was a lot of sliding, cause I couldnt lift and slide
and it says to turn it every two months?

... it might be more than two months...



ah well, got a new mattress, shall see how it works out

I thought the bulb had gone on my bedside lamp
but swapping the bulb had the same problem
so I ordered a new lamp
and put the original bulb in it
and now 🤞 it works 🌞

I also have two spare bulbs if this happens again, though the newest one is called 'daylight' and 380 instead of 300 lumens and was somehow Way Too Bright for sleepy spaces. and only the lamps take screw fit bulbs. So that's some money.

but basically, problem solved, and room still pretty.

Shelves

I hesitate to even think this, because this is a very weird thought
but I think I maybe might have
enough shelves.

I mean I have two more boxes of books right here
but in the other room I have an entire empty bookcase
and in here there's a big gap where the three more shelves are going to be delivered.

So just at this moment, for once, I appear to have
enough shelves
and all my simple by author fiction in alphabetical order.

The anthologies aren't, of course, not by any other logic neither
and the Conan, Star Wars, and Doctor Who books keep their own logic in their own places, which are a bit crammed until those other three planks arrive.

But I have inventoried, shelved, and rearranged in something like author-series-date
and they all fit.

This may well be unprecedented in three generations.

It feels like I'm breaking some sort of natural law here.

... it also feels like I can finally be confident enough of what I've got to splurge on whole author fills to go in the gaps, so, this happy state may well not last long.

But right now
maybe
enough.
