I feel I was an enabler in this. Don't tell Alan...

He approves! At this point, anything that makes sorting the loft out easier has to be good!

If it isn't inappropriate for me to ask or you to tell, what is "Nel" that/which/whom you've copied?

Nel is t'Strapping Lad(TM)'s godmother, sartotrresartus, with whom we spent New Year. She invested in a similar collection while we were there, and gillo egged us on! (Hm... We've been egging each other on in similar vein for some 37 years. It's a bit scary when we think about it! We were at uni together back in the '70's.) Nel and I are both well known for hoarding stuff, and need ways of curbing the inclination, weeding out the dross, and organizing what we keep in a way in which we can both store it and use it.

Ain't it though! Not my idea, but so full of win I stole it wholesale.

I must investigate this emporium of organisation, I do have multiple plastic boxes in the storage room, but really need to do a major weed and get rid of more stuff...and some of my plastic boxes have warped over the years so I have tottering towers...sigh. Can't face it tonight though, have horrible feeling I have picked up a bug, I feel sick!

Hope you are feeling better this morning and it was only a passing thing... I have just spent an hour trying to get through to the new doctors to make an appointment: I managed a cancellation at 7:20pm next Monday! So, another week of broken sleep and back pain before I can see anyone. Impressive? Not. Good thing it is just my back and not something urgent.

Grrr, but they never think back pain is urgent, do they. My back has been much better since I started taking the Etoricoxib, an expensive and specialist NSAID which works on spines and it has cut the arthritis symptoms a bit...though this bug has set them off again! I am cold and shivery and still a bit nauseous today.

Not sure exactly what the back thing is... I have a tender patch that feels bruised on the lower right side, on the hip bones between the cocyx and the hip joint, above the muscle. i8t's about the size of my hand. Wakes me up every time I turn over at night and goes all knotted and ouchy when I need to get up in the morning.

*Bows and giggles*

I am so addicted to Useful Boxes. I often get them from Staples (drug of choice) or Storage4Crafts. The latter are mind boggling in their ways to organize Stuff(TM)and are totally Storage Porn.

I have to get a quilt ready to sew tomorrow. I finished the useful bag, though, and it is getting good reviews on FB RCTQ group.

Will get file in post asap, but it may be tomorrow now. Hope the shinies come soon; Christmas decorations are sorted and waiting to go to bed for another year.
