Busy with the shredder

1 minute read time.

I don't think I'm going to have time for very much blogging over the next few days.  Unanticipated problems have arisen which can be easily resolved by acquiring the following items.  If I get round to it one day I'll explain why.  In the meanwhile please trust me that I need to quickly find the following items which I know are located somewhere in the house. 

LIst includes 4 handsets for the landline phone.  A mobile phone handset.  The box of phone chargers.  An envelope with some PAYG sim cards in.  The spare document shredder.  The box of extension leads.  Yes I know I can go and buy these items, and I'd be happy to do so, but it means going to the trading estate.  No time now to explain.  One item they wouldn't sell there is H's passport.  (No, he's not leaving me, ID check purposes).

One day I will have time to explain why our attic, our home office, and several cupboards and corners of the house are bursting to the seams with storage boxes.  But not today.  

I have devised a brilliant plan to declutter the house over the coming weeks.  But It can't get started because of the crate of confidential documents that were in my possession when I was working from home during the pandemic.  The contents of which I was instructed to shred 5 years ago but never got round to.  

So I'm currently in the office frantically shredding documents.  H can't help till the confidential items are out of the way.  He's busy in the attic anyway rummaging for the spare shredder which I'm sure is up there somewhere.

So why am I stopping to update my blog?  Because the wretched shredder has overheated yet again and needs 10 minutes rest before it restarts.
