Catie’s Somewhat Disastrous Day

Yesterday: 1. walked out the door, closed it behind me, realized i’d forgotten my keys 2. decided I’d go to Ted’s work and get his keys, got to the bus, discovered i’d ALSO forgotten my wallet/bus pass 3. texted the landlord to ask if he was around and could let me into the house. fortunately, he was, so I got back in, got my keys, got my wallet, and went out to the shop that said on its website that it had marshmallow creme 4. the website was wrong 5.…

i gotta marie kondo my life

S P E C I F I C A L L Y i need to marie kondo all the stuff that’s lying around that’s actually already been marie kondo’d and just needs to be TAKEN SOMEWHERE ELSE. We don’t have a car, which makes some of it difficult, but there are also things too large to be put in a car (like a 3 seater sofa), so it’s less relevant on that front. I am just so tired of Stuff. I do not know how to winnow down the STUFF.…
