Since Kondoing most of my home almost all the things left are favourites, but cleaning and refilling these little tea-light holders is also a favourite task. My equivalent of Sara Berman's amazing cupboard? (Yesterday's post)    What tasks give you most pleasure?

The picture of the tea lights is so satisfying. Indeed, the same sort of satisfaction as the shelves! As I've mentioned before, I know that I'm never destined for a Marie London life, but I'm not giving up, first destination on my list today is the charity shop with the car full of contributions I've been driving around with for a fortnight...

Yay Penny! Bless them, let them go.. Stacking logs, polishing horizontal wooden surfaces (only if free of clutter), picking up fallen twigs from around the garden to use as kindling, pouring linseeds into a Kilner jar... all of those give me pleasure. Oh, and ironing pillowcases, although I seldom do this.

Ironing is very satisfying to me, especially linen tea towels and napkins..the huge tablecloth..not so much! Making a bed, just right. And very simple. I like a plain, serene bedroom....oh, and cleaning out the whole house and garage, and taking a ton of stuff to recycling..that feels very rewarding.

Creating small spaces of beauty in the house, dividing a bouquet of flowers over different vases, ironing, cleaning the top of my study tables: first removing everything on them, cleaning the surface and then mindfully replacing/arranging what I want on them again,
