Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of December! bonfire

Only 3 days until Xmas! I hope everybody is couchmaxxing and getting into the festive mood. kropotkin-big

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you’ve done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals or plans for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, “sober for one day.” Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don’t have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Take care sleepi

    Yeah the bulk of my meals are cheap stuff but then i go to the grocery store and trying out the new vegan products they have which is where i feel like i spend a lot of my money at.

    I’m gonna try to do what the other person said so this list might be long or short but just something for me to use a reference as well.

    Tap for list
    • Wax some jacket, tarps and bags
    • Go through my book and movie backlog
    • Get back into fermenting
    • Start making my pantry staples like mayo and milk without having to spend money on the vegan versions
    • digitize my current book, music, and movie collections so i can distribute it to the masses
    • obtain the books, music, and movies i want so i can put them all on my server
    • Dive deeper into home servers so i can fully set mine up to do what i want
    • Get my other car back into good running condition so i can sell it
    • learn how to use my sewing machine for more than just patching stuff up
    • learn how to sashiko stitch
    • Get back into running and/or boxing
    • go camping more often
    • guerilla garden using some of my garden seeds

      your list made me laugh because I also have bags to wax, my nibling requested more fermented hot sauce, i have a server waiting for me to put arr services on it, need to make garlic oil, have a backlog of books, a bunch of dress patterns and a sewing machine i have been meaning to do for 10 years, need to organize my camping stuff, need to go on more walks… we have the same unfinished projects!!

      i have to learn what sashiko stitching is now i’m assuming i’ll be into it.

      btw goodwill has cheap rice cookers that are perfect for melting wax!
