Cluttered house - The list

I have made list of 20 things I am currently choosing to ignore:

my need for laziness
my need for peace
my need for flexibility
my need for escape
my need for laughter
my need for sleep
my need for dancing
my need for travelling to places
my need for movement
my need for telling my truth
my need for drawing and arts
my need for visitors
my need for money
my need to share my crafts and arts
my need to communicate with others the way I feel.
my compulsion to distract myself from the environment I am in
my feelings, my emotions
my need for collaboration and support
my need for care and compassion
my need for change

My five top one are - my need for laziness, my need for escape, my need to communicate with others the way I feel, my need for support and collaboration, my need for sleep

I feel that I am tired. I am overwhelmed with tasks to do, this creep up in my surrounding environment, I feel slightly overwhelmed and cannot sleep anymore properly. it shows in my house as I just want to be lazy and more flexible in what I do. I need to share that with others so I can get better support and delegate!

Home Energy, Footpaths Challenge - Monitoring Energy Consumption

According to the Energy Saving Trust you could find that your energy usage drops by between five and 15% in the first year of using an energy monitor, which could be a saving of £25 to £75 on a £500 bill. I am following the homework of the Footpaths book as promised in previous post ( here ). I set myself to read my meters every week to monitor my energy consumption. It is tedious. I tried twice to make it an habit. I fell miserably. Reading is not really the issue but accessing the meter might be the issue. I better put my shoes elsewhere and learn to squat. I recognise that for changing you have to recognise first your pattern of behaviour. The truth of the matter is that I do not know exactly how bad we behave in our household. Badly, most probably. Example - I spent most of the day in my warm gown with a hat on. The heaters were off. Then family came back home in the evening. I went to the kitchen to cook. I came out of the kitchen, go...

Horrid Airbnb Experience - Part 6

In part 5, M. confront B. who is half of the man we first met. He cries and he is ashamed of himself. He promises he won't drink no more. We decide to keep him one more night and to help him with his car the following day. The night comes. M. is called to visit his sister. I decide to go with him reluctantly. As M. and I come out of the house. B. comes down the stairs and said that he is going for a walk. I do not trust him. M. said to me to not worry that he talked to him and everything will be fine. We arrive in front of her sister house. I decide to go back to the house as I am not feeling well. I go back to the house. No one yet. I can hear the clickety of the keys in the door. I decide to open it because I know B. is back. He looks at me, scared. In his a Tesco bag with a pack of 10 Stella Artois. I am horrified. I decide not to confront him. He goes upstairs to the bedroom. I call M.: ''Come back to the house NOW''

Horrid Airbnb experience - Part 1

We had been renting a room in our house for about 6 months. We enjoyed the stream of visitors, yet we were looking for someone who could live with us on a more long-term basis. B. entered our life and we were pleased. He booked a room through Airbnb one week in, one week out. We fell in love with the guy. He was a gentle soul, funny and a bit shy. We had many things in common including our vision for the future. We liked to have him around. M. had started to introduce him to friends. People appeared to appreciate him. We had a trip planned. We were travelling for two weeks and a half or so. B. had lived with us for two months or so, we trusted him and so we agreed through the Airbnb scheme to leave him our home with confidence that all would be well. Off we went.
