What did you buy today?

[gra_farmer]

My wife is challenging me to a 30 day declutter.

Day 1 = 1 item, day 2 = 2 items, etc...a total of 465 items to throw at the end of 30 days, the winner gets a paid meal at a posh restaurant....it's a trick....*sob*...

It costs me whether I do it or not....

I am already doing the intermittent fasting, with a one meal / hour eating window per day....

Yes, the whole partner situation sounds odd to me but I strongly suspect that it is exaggerated, I certainly hope so.
I think I’ve overcome my addiction to the Black and Decker lathe. I’ve just bought my fourth which is identical to the other three. I didn’t need the third one but this latest still has a COMPLETE set of accessories!!!!!

In fact the silver1980’s ones have become very rare.

It helps that “she with whom things are discussed and negotiated” buys wooden wool machinery and lace making equipment in quantity.

Just taken recipe of some throwing angels, looking forward to given them a throw.

Clutter is the bane of my life! Decided to get some help and booked in a couple of ladies to help mesort and tidy things.. all they want to do is throw stuff i need away. We had words! Next session Monday, fingers crossed they won't start telling me I don't need things I do, and stop talking to me like a five year old being told I only need one teddy bear! (I don't have soft toys, but you know what I mean)
They can't understand I might need two different size tarps, or more than one pair of boots, (winter, summer)
No TV so I read and knit or craft, why not throw out some books/wool/sewing stuff...you'll never use it all...******!

Easy one - follow my lead...

" That Ma'am? No - always been there ,slight stock taking inaccuracy on the last inventory check. Yes, yes I do agree,- It does indeed " seem " to look new and shiny. You are right , it is very strange... truly a phenomenon..... how it smells and looks new. - Now with your permission I shall be off to attend to my chores "

Or - Just as how much her last Hair-doo REALLY cost.

Hmmmmm

Dealing with my particular Home Secretary reminds me of Gandalf, discussing Denethor (Steward of Gondor)...

‘He has long sight. He can perceive, if he bends his will thither, much of what is passing in the minds of men, even of those that dwell far off. It is difficult to deceive him, and dangerous to try.’

That is beautiful

Thanks. I was thinking of trading it for a user but not sure I can now. The way the stone seems to represent Earth is just enticing

Ordered the Savotta Kahakka 15 litre in brown because it is the least military looking.
The one detail that intrigued me most are the huge sidepockets. Can fit a Nalgene 1.5 litre in each and still have some room left for something thin like an axeshaft.

My day 1 item would be the wife!

I do hope, for your sake, that she is not on this site!

Otherwise "Your dinner? It is in the bin, my darling..."

A lovely little lamp I picked up at a charity shop together with a horrendous key ring I took apart to make a mushroom’esk lanyard with

Nice find, that lamp is a lovely wee thing

Nalgene 1.5 litre bottle in sidepocket.

Looks like a 2L SADF bottle would fit?

A Victorinox Forester M Grip.

Wanted something pocket sized that could cover off cooking/food prep as well as a bit of campcraft. I looked at the Rangergrip, but felt it was slightly overkill.

So far love it except for the liner lock which, for me as a right-hander, operates totally counterintuitively. I'm sure I'll evolve a workaround.
