Future Friday Predictions & Planning 11-26-2021

 Future Friday Predictions & Planning  11-26-2021

 Ah... Black Friday! I have shopped once and only once at a mall on black Friday. I will never do it again but I was also lucky that it was a good first/last experience.

Now, for things that I really start thinking about with the changing season. Namely with the drop in temperature and the fact that I will have to eventually pay to have the skirting around my houses foundation spray foamed to stop the insane amount of drafts.

Technically there is snow at my house, or so I will assume.

not much else to think about because it's the end of fall and I really don't have ideas on what to expect.

Day Light Alarm but Cheaper

Day Light Alarm but Cheaper

So some time last year I accidentally murdered my daylight alarm clock.

I had bumped it and it fell off my nightstand for a second time and that was enough for it to go off it's gears with the alarm function. The alarm would not only go off when ever it wanted but would do a random sound and random duration's of light. It was like my own little nature rave.

Seeing as it’s now late enough in fall that the sun is drastically different... I really needed a new one. Or so I thought.

I didn’t want to put out $$ for a delicate flower of an alarm clock. This time I got LED light bulbs for Day Light and a plugin timer. I already had an old book lamp from the late 80′s so I was set on that from.

I opted not to have it shine directly in my face and instead have it pointing at the wall were the sun normally rises from.

So far it has been super effective.

I already have my normal alarms on my phone but just having this light turn on before them is so helpful. 

This is the GE 24-Hour Heavy Duty Indoor Plug-in Mechanical Timer 2 Pack that I got https://amzn.to/3GJCn8B

And this is the Regal LED A19 Light Bulb 5000K Daylight 5 Pack that I got https://amzn.to/3q2tUHC 

I got more then just a single of each because I actually needed more timers and the light bulbs were more cost efficient as a 5 pack. I plan to use them in other lamps also. So no wasted funds.

Hope this helps!

Second Tuesdays Update 11-9-2021

 Second Tuesdays Update 11-9-2021

 

I had a surge of "need to do" and I moved a little furniture around. I also almost broke my arm because of physics and I did not plan for adjusting my grip on the shelving that I almost had to lift over my head. Yeah... It turned out good tho so now I just have to load it up with dishes and then... pick a paint color and paint the walls. After I take the thing down again. 

I was going to paint everything first but then I just didn't.

 Slowly my witch aesthetic is taking over my house. If only it would unpack as it went.

Blog related news, I have started a post and it is going to have affiliate links in it. I'm not sure how to feel about it. On one hand I have used said products and feel relatively good about linking to them. On the other hand... I can hear googles algorithm just biding it's time. Waiting in broad day light to either strike my blog down or god knows what.

Which... It seems to be much harder to have a new blog these days. Goint to have a post on that also.

I also started playing a pay-to-win fashion game on my phone. I spent so much money on the Halloween dresses. Well, so much money for me because I don't really like to spend money on games. Oh well.
