Changes

 

The last week didn't have the best of starts with the great food allergy reaction knocking me out for a bit but I did manage to get done a few things that I felt really needed to happen.

One was to deal with the excess of glasswear that had been Mom's passion in the years before her death taking over the front room not least the area around the fireplace that was extended some forty years ago along the walls.

The things that were very much her such as weird cats and other animals stayed but the many perfume bottles have gone tidying up that area and allowing more space between each remaining item.

The other was replacing a old tape recorder that seldom got use for something more useful like a better turntable and preamp that also replaces a old record player for just playing the record for just background music into the Roberts DAB+ radio where the main turntable is plugged elsewhere into a full blown hifi.

It's Canadian designed but made in Taiwan with a walnut finish which looks better in what is very much a domestic space. I mean I have a stuffie on the top of it!!!

That just does the job well and is being well used.
