Shoveling Out the Living Room
Dec. 8th, 2018 09:59 pmIt was my turn to host our monthly story swap. Which meant making at least a nominal attempt at making my condo presentable.
As usual, I started out with good intentions to put things where they belong ( which is often the trash). But there is never really enough time. So the boxes where I put things I intend to get to are overflowing. And there are stacks of things on half of my bed, which I need to sort out.
Also, why do I have a bag-less vacuum? It seemed like a good idea at the time, but it is a pain to empty. The bin has way too small a capacity. Four sweeps over the floor did not get all of the dust and shreddies that spilled from emptying the shredder. But that was all I could handle doing.
After all that, three of the 5 people who had RSVPed canceled. We had nice seasonal stories anyway.
