Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 882 , Saturday 28/03/2026
Saturday started around the usual time, around 07:15.
Breakfast was followed by a prolonged search for a new pint glass for Mrs S as I dropped her favourite one while I was washing up. We have a ceramic sink & while it looks great it is a bugger for killing anything that will break on impact with a hard surface!
It too me ages to find something suitable, in the end I got a LotR one off Etsy. Hopefully Mrs S will like it!
Then I had to clean the upstairs floors, always a fun job!
It was a day for deliveries this afternoon, first the cleaning kit I ordered for Mrs S’s iphone rocked up. It has lots of useful mini tools for getting into the charging ports & such. I gave the phone a good once over & it seems to work ok now.
The kit also came with some dust plugs for the lightening port, made out of aluminium of all things! I wanted to make sure that if the dust plug was removed it wouldn’t get lost so I got out my Dremel™ & drilled a tiny hole thru which to thread a length of fishing line. Or at least that was the plan - what I had not planned for was finding a whole new way to damage myself! I managed to drill right thru the plug & up into the base of the nail on my left hand 1st finger! 🙄🤦♂️ This of course bled profusely & required the application of a plaster.
My new set of screwdrivers rocked up later in the afternoon - the first full set I have ever bought, Dewalt ‘maxfit’ demolition ones. They look the biz, time will tell if they are any good. I also got a Bosch Go 3 driver, which is pretty awesome.
This all resulted in an afternoon spent happily rearranging various tool boxes & retiring the mixed bag of screwdrivers I have accumulated over the years - they have gone in my ‘backup’ tool box which is always a joy to pull out as I normally forget exactly what is in it, so there are numerous “oh I never knew I had one of those” moments.
We had a Chinese takeaway for tea & watched ‘Love & Monsters’ on Netflix - a surprisingly good & funny post apocalyptic movie about one wimp & his dog on a journey to find lost love!
Final Thoughts.
Not a bad day, despite drilling a hole in my finger &
Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖
