Got a very scary email this morning from WordFence (WordPress security plugin) saying my site has been infected with Malware. GoDaddy (my hosting provider) confirmed it and are in the process of removing it. Scary world.
I have added 2 new projects to my list of things to do in 2020. Even though I haven’t done anything yet on the existing list, I added two more.
I know most people have doors & locks on their basement cages. We never have. When I moved into the condo back in 2012 the cage door was already leaning against the wall around the corner from the cage. I never felt the need to put it back on. Until now.
For one of hubby’s Christmas gifts I ordered a TV-B-Gone Kit from Amazon. They will turn off about 85% of televisions in public places. Unfortunately, since these devices are questionably legal, you can’t buy a complete device, you have to build it yourself. They literally send you a bag of parts which I found very daunting!
I have 9 projects planned for 2020. Most have been on my list for years! Maybe this is their year.
Despite taking almost half a year off from blogging, I managed to accomplish a lot! Being on furlough for the first 5 weeks of the year with nothing to do but projects helped immensely, but I think that’s in part what caused my burnout.
The 3rd heating zone is our master bedroom. I installed the smart thermostat in there back on November 30th, but didn’t have time to feed the wire through the wall until this past weekend. Since you have already read all about our other 2 smart thermostats, I’ll keep this post very short.
This past November I decided to relax by coloring with crayons. I have been keeping an ear open to the recent trend of adult coloring books, but wanted to make my own designs to color in. I found a book of thick art paper in the girl cave, grabbed my circle templates [same ones I use for stained glass and art painting], a sharpie, and a ruler and set to work.
Last May I started de-mousing the foundation around our front stoop with hardware cloth. I only got a bit of the right side done. This past weekend I stapled hardware cloth around most of the front stoop in an attempt to keep ahead of them!
This past May I spent about 6 weeks completely cleaning and overhauling the girl cave. I removed 2 large trash bags of crap, and moved a bunch of stuff to the basement for storage. I didn’t take any “before” pictures, because, well, I guess since I wasn’t really in a blogging mood I also wasn’t thinking ahead to “before” pictures.
