Re: The High-Five Corner

Carrie,

Sunrise clock is an alarm clock with a light that gradually brightens so you can wake up gently. I’d never heard of them until Pete Puma mentioned them here under another topic. There are several different models out there, but I ultimately went with this one, which is the same one he linked to:

Expensive, but worth it, and I think it will be all the more so as the days get shorter! Too early to tell if it’s helping me wake up; I’m still kind of experimenting with how fast to have it come on and so forth, but so far I’m happy with it.

I wish I had good paperwork advice! I’m horrible at it and experimenting with some new things, too, Right now my time-tested method is to let my husband deal with it.

Here’s something I’m feeling good about: Yesterday I devoted an afternoon to decluttering all the corners of my bedroom, and also spent some time in a room that currently is nothing more than a dumping ground. The bedroom looks a lot better, and I can now at least walk a little further into the dumping ground room.

In the process I found a missing Japanese wall scroll – still in the box – that was given to us in early summer; a nice pair of Polartec thermals, still in the package, that was given to me TWO Christmases ago, and a hundred and twenty dollars in cash! Not a bad haul for an afternoon’s work!
