Ok, its been a rather productive week. I'd've done this as a #Loops video, but its back to crashing when I try to record there, so…

Any how, as I've mentioned in other posts, I've been working on blowing out my husband's book collection using apps, three apps to be precise. Sure, they don't pay great, and it leaves me to deal with the books they don't want, but its fast and convenient, and got rid of about 900 books. The result is that the library is much smaller, with the books fitting on one wall now, plus one case in the living room. That's down from around 9 cases downstairs, 2 in the living room and 1 in the bedroom.

Those haven't gone to waste, being used to upgrade my bookcases in the bedroom and rearrange them a bit, that narrow case for example is going to be used as a display case.

But, this is just the tip of the iceberg, I'm also replacing the bed, dropping down from Queen to TwinXL, and I had thought about relocating it to the one wall over there, since late 60's design only leaves me two walls to use, but I'm also thinking of moving my desks and computers in there, so that won't work. Sure, I could put the desks where the bed is now, but that'd leave one sticking out into the room, and I suspect that'd make moving around the room difficult. Putting them on the back wall, aside from the standard electrical nuisance that I'll need to fix, will make for a more balanced space where the bed is in the front, and the bookcases and desks are in the back. And the TV will be floating around, as there's no good space for it.
I might throw out that stereo that's sitting on the floor, I'd bought it in a thrift store, and it works… so long as you don't want any lights or digital displays. I'd figured it'd be an easy fix, that'd have to be a lighting circuit common wire, right? Yeah, the design and wiring of that thing is a nightmare, and with my computer room stereo coming with the computers and desks, I don't really need it as I have a record player in the living room. It was cheap new, it was cheap used, and its prolly too much work to fix it so we'll see.

Any how, this is the most productive I've been since he passed, between how much has been on my plate since November, and a lack of motivation to do anything here, not much has been done. That said, time is never on my side, and I have a lot to do, tons to sell, throw, etc. I have for the last month or so been cleaning out the shed, throwing out about half a can a week, but the house has mostly been ignored, and now I'm making it my house, or at least a test version, I'm still expecting to downsize and relocate as I live in a Republican state, something I'd like to change.
