Houston, We Have A Problem, Week #4, 2023 30 Day Challenge.

 

 *is there anything happier than a little planter full of viola on the window sill?

They said it would feel like the "flu." On the discharge summary they said you would have "flu like symptoms."  They failed to mention, hit by a truck, joints on fire, muscles in constant cramp. And the headache, I keep checking to make sure my ears aren't bleeding.  Other than that, they were close. Am I
exaggerating, maybe a bit but I have never even had a head cold for 6 or 7 years!


 *before the health update, I did manage to get some of the 4th of July decor out and in place thinking I may be a bit "off."

I did expect some post-transfusion issues, but good grief, I am hoping this is over soon. The range for symptoms is 48 hours and up to 2 weeks. I am telling you right now, it better not be two weeks. I will not survive and importantly, husband will be moving into the barn for his own safety.  Reclast infusion is purported to provide an 18-22% improvement in bone density for 1 and possibly 2 years. I decided it was worth the process. Talk to me in a year.  

This how the bookshelf wall looked before the long-arm moved in. Not anymore.

Alrighty then, here is the schedule for week 4, the last week of the challenge. It really is pretty general, you are really just wrapping up the project. A pick and choose process for most of us I think. 

This week is entirely dedicated to sorting, and possibly culling, our books, magazines, and tear sheets. Years ago I began a project to tear out patterns in magazines that I wanted to make and discarding those pages that are advertisement or not to my liking. Two large binders full now, I need to sort them too. Many of these are from the 1980's and 1990's. 

Any other projects not completed (for me two more flat surfaces in great need) and some batting cuts in drawer bins under the long arm. That's it.  

Ain't this purdy?

  • I will not likely get photo's taken and uploaded in the next few days. Sorry. I really am miserable.
  • If you are behind, it's OK, no one is going to get all bound up about it.
  • This project, all in all, has been rather cathartic for me. In the future, I think I will plan to spend a day per month tackling an element that has gotten out of hand. I do keep a couple bins available all the time for donations and for discard. I will keep doing that.
