Productivity
Mar. 31st, 2016 06:30 pmThis is what I have done today:
On the other hand, both the scanner purchase and bed pickup will benefit charities, and I am once again left gasping at the alacrity of deliveries. This country! It's really not trying hard enough to drive me away.
*This is related to the scanner: An A3 scanner is about the size of a Zodiac, so the only place I can realistically put it is under my worktable, a space which, as of this morning, was occupied by the boxes for my printer and auxiliary monitor; I had nowhere else to put them because the bed I inherited from my former housemate had a thoroughly useless 4" bottom clearance. So to install this scanner I had to buy a new bed. (The new one is much better anyway.)
**Well, I did my bit to book a pickup; the people picking it up have yet to give me a time.
- Cleaned my room
- Taken delivery of a serious grownup scanner
- Shopped for a new bed*
- Visited the charity shop to make sure they didn't have the same bed
- Bought new bed
- Took apart old bed and took pieces downstairs
- Made** appointment for old bed to be picked up
- Took delivery of new bed
- Built new bed (and reassembled bedding etc)
- Installed serious grownup scanner
- Cleaned room again, as the day's activity undid everything from this morning
