Today is all about connection!

I have been a terrible procrastinator today. I had planned on being a domestic goddess - I was going to clean the bathroom, do laundry and put away all the clean washing that's piled up on a chair in my bedroom.

Instead most of today has been spent on my couch, under a blanket, eating far too many simple carbs and drinking too much coffee. I'm a little buzzed. Oops? I've been listening to music and playing around on Dreamwidth. I've posted a... what are we calling them... a personal ad? An introduction? Either way, I've posted on [community profile] addme to find DW friends, and started just randomly commenting to people here and there. It's been a lot of fun and I've fully enjoyed spending a few hours exploring and figuring things out.

Hello to anyone who's joined me!

That's not to say I've achieved nothing. I've done one load of laundry, I've cooked dinner and I've taken Seamus out for a walk - although we didn't go very far. Neither of us particularly like the cold weather or the damp, and we both have joint issues. Both Seamus and Ziggy have appreciated a day curled up with me on the couch with warm fluffy blankets and the fire on.

The bathroom, especially, does need to get done so I'm going to have to do that when I've finished writing this. It's not a huge mess, but I've got a plumber coming tomorrow to look at my bath drain - it's being very sluggish, not draining properly and there's a bit of smell. I've used a drain snake, I've poured bleach down, I've used Mister Muscle. They all work for a while but then it starts again. I have a feeling it's a long hair clog further down, but I don't know how to take it all apart to look, and I don't want to risk fucking it up, so we get a professional in. But, of course, the bathroom has to pristine first, even though I know I'm going to want to clean it again when he's done!

Best get to it - wish me luck?

Rest is a terribly underrated thing. Good luck with the bathroom cleaning! It’s one of my least favorite parts of housekeeping XD

Sundays are made for rest, caffeine and carbs - especially cold, wet ones. It sounds like you needed it. And the laundry will still be there when you're ready for it

Sometimes you need a day to just relax. There's no shame in not always being productive!

Are Seamus and Ziggy your furbabies?

That sounds like a wonderful Sunday, actually. Don't underestimate the importance of rest and relaxation. It's something I tend not to be terribly good at.

Good to have become acquainted with you. You seem to be very cool.
