hellziggyMy big accomplishment for the day? I cleaned out my yahoo inbox.
I know it doesn't seem like much, but we're talking over 700 messages not even counting the bulk mail folder!
I've had that email address for at least 5 years & it is the one I use when signing up for stuff online or for entering contests, so it gets put on a lot of mailing lists. Most of them that get into the inbox I can tell where they are from. I enter a contest & then I start getting newsletters from that company. But after so long it had started to get kind of out of control.
So I went through, deleted most everything. Looked at the other stuff that might have been important. Deleted most of that too. Actually finally made a folder to store things like password emails & product registration emails. Damn. It's done. Now I just have to check it daily for a while and start unsubscribing as stuff comes in so that it doesn't overwhelm again...
Also, I bought paint today to paint the stairwell. Instead of a lovely shade of mint green, the stairwell to the basement will be Moonlit Yellow!
And my dad came over today and hooked up the stove to the gas line so![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
