Today was a day off. Had finished all my standard weekend tasks and related procrastination, and am between video game addictions. Was going to go to the beach, but windchills around zero cancelled that plan. Cleaned bedroom. Moved cedar chest to the TV room, where it won't have anything that lives on top of it, to may actually be functional. Did 3 loads of laundry. Went to IKEA, obtained a 1-door wardrobe of shelves (Danish), a set of unfinished pine shelves, each one with at least one great big knothole, for the utility closet (Russian) and little metal frame with nylon drawers for the bottom of the clothes closet (Chinese). Also 6 water glasses, and in the one off-list adventure, 16 decent wooden coathangers. Spent only 2 1/2 hours and $150 dollars at IKEA, a personal best. Reorganized utility and clothes closet, not to mention the bedside tables. Managed to part with 2 shirts that never fit and which had worn through at the collar. Not only does the closet door close, my initial goal, there is nothing on the floor of the bedroom that isn't either furniture or footwear. The next task, next time a fit of this nature comes over me, will be a purge and reform of the bookshelves. Am going to have to formulate guidelines for what makes a book worth keeping.
