    i need some NicheMarket batteries Slight smile

  • I ran for 1'15"; took 3 friends foraging; cooked a nice meal; tidied a tiny bit; and bought two things i've been avoiding getting around to. A good day!

    I'm trying to be disciplined at keeping a routine going through lockdown esp physical exercise, it's going well. I'm also trying to clear one 'smelly file' (chores i've been avoiding forever that just keep getting smellier) a day. Tick.

    I've not done the dishes, again. My exec control has some clear biases!

    I've sold / given away anything of value - this is all just junk so i'm being rather brutal with the cull.   Dump it all.

  • in reply to Plastic

    i have the same mentality, i recycle everything throw out nothing, i have tons of things that might come in handy one day !

  • We're clearing out the garage - tons of accumulated junk and stuff and leftover bits that will come in handy (it never has) but the mice have got in so there's lots to just get rid of.   Old college notes, paperwork and insurance for cars from 15 years ago, training manuals for jobs even though I don't work any more,    Old computers.and operating systems and backup discs dating back to Win3.11      All to go.    

    I've been destroying hard drives - drilling into them and filling with vinegar and leaving to marinate overnight to etch the oxide layer away..

    I'm doing it bursts when the energy allows - 1/2 skip full so far!
