Thursday 15th October - Another day

[byslantedlight]

It's been a funny kind of day. I know I've done useful things, but for the life of me I can barely work out what I have done...

One thing, though, was deal with a box of pictures that I found had also caught the damp in my old place. I took them out, put them in the sun and cleaned them off, and now they're drying further (I hope) by the radiator. This one couldn't be saved though - the frame (relatively cheap Ikea, luckily, though still a waste) was gone all through, and although the front of the poster looks fine, the back was all marked. I know it's just a poster, but I did rather love my Parkes Telescope whirling lights, especially because it was also a happy memory from visiting the actual Parkes Telescope (from The Dish, one of my favourite films) with kiwisue, and I'd looked forward to having it up in my shed-office... *sighs sadly*

Apart from taking my recycling up to the end of the farm track, and getting some milk, I was home all day today though. And this is what my place looked like when I came back from that little job. Not bad, really. *g*

It looks so lovely and cosy :-))))) (sorry about the poster :-( I know if it were me I'd stash it anyway, even if you reckon it's not displayable any more? ... it still looks nice!)

I loved that poster... oh, you know what?! I took pics of it, and maybe I could make one into an icon! *g* I love the swirl of light that's the Dish, and it might make quite a cool icon. I shall have a go! *g* (I think I'd worry too much about the damp that got on it, stashing it away. Plus I don't have too much space for stashing... :( )
