Spring Cleaning

Stuff I did these past weeks, in no particular order:

Organized all loose items into drawers and baskets
Planted some basil (results pending)
Installed new ball-bearing rails on cabinet
Built new shelf
Fixed a few creaky shelves and tightened pretty much all the screws around the flat
Cleaned out kitchen, put pans and cooking utensils on hangers
Re-organized my work materials, desk
Got new lamps with proper luminance (1500+ lm) & a nicely swiveling desk lamp, installed dimmers
Cleaned out the balcony
Cleaned out the basement
Installed OpenWRT on my router
Set up a repeater I had laying around
Set up printer for network printing and scanning instead of fumbling with USB cables
Decorated living room
All in all, sorted out half a metric ton of clutter
Re-purposed old wooden plates into wine rack
Found a beautiful marble plate that had been tragically misused to elevate a shelf, cleaned it with acetone, used as pedestal for decor items
De-iced the freezer
Prepared my law books with tabs and markers
Went running and lifted weights
Learned interior design concepts
Learned to pick locks
Changed my mobile phone provider
Set up more secure authentication for online services and moved off SMS 2FA
Installed clothes rails and put more of my clothes on coat hangers
Re-arranged bedroom
Sorted out used seldomly used clothes and gave them away
Baked a great many trays of cookies and sent them to family and friends
Disassembled several cupboards and tables I was no longer using

Very cathartic.

While going through all my old stuff, I also realized I:

Haven't danced Tango in years
Don't do even remotely as much martial arts as I used to
Don't care about computers much any more
Have dumped a frightening amount of math- and engineering-related knowledge from my brain. How did I ever understand any of these things?
Am getting very homely here as opposed to my chaotic years of moving and traveling

There I thought I was just going full Mr. Home Improvement, but ended up realizing a things few about myself.

I still miss my friends. About time this whole situation blows over.
