Today's design: a 'screw mover' for correcting the positioning of screw holes that are just *slightly* off, enough to be a problem, but not so far that you could just drill a new hole next to it.

Things done today:
- Installed new towel rack (whoo, turns out it's screw-compatible with the old one! I hate drilling into concrete)
- Installed clingfilm/tinfoil dispenser on kitchen wall (and fucked up the screw spacing, hence the screw movers)
- Installed the new toilet seat (not yet sure whether it is actually an ergonomic improvement over the old broken one)

Definitely glad to finally be getting some home improvement stuff done. Various cabinets etc. arriving tomorrow so I can finally tidy up stuff that has so far lived mostly on the floor

Home improvement update log, since last post:
- Put together and installed several cabinets (finally! storage!)
- Installed a fake plant for decoration (helpfully, those don't die)
- Replaced the shower head pin with one that isn't decaying and half hanging out of the wall (this required dealing with expired wall filler)
- Replaced the vibration dampening for my air conditioner with washing machine dampeners, which turns out to work much better than my previous homebrew styrofoam solution

Oh, also:
- Put together and installed two desks, for the other creatures in this house
