I'm an expert at nendoroid assembly now, ask me anything

Time has gotten away from me so here's what I've done this week:
• my dad put up my new bookcases on Monday, and as I was ahead of my clearing schedule and had emptied out my original divider kallax, put three inserts into that
• I then cleared my dining table by putting 90% of that into aforementioned kallax inserts
• I take down a large painting frame with the intention of putting some smaller posters into it. I line them up. I know in my heart they are going to slip the instant I put the frame upright but I believe. They slip. I celebrate this non success by getting down another painting frame and replacing the posters much more successfully in that.
• I got a handful of figures out, mostly statues. I need to figure out what's going in my tall bookcases, my short bookcases, and what's going in the original kallax when double sided transparent acrylic inserts arrive. I also need to put the figure boxes in the bottom of my original kallax but can only do this now when I can easily access it with an empty dining table. So I pivot and spend three and a half days getting nineteen nendoroids and two figma out of their boxes.
(This isn't even all of the nendoroids or figma I own, lmao.)
I would not recommend getting out nineteen nendoroids somewhat consecutively to anyone. It was enjoyable in that I got to see my treasured possessions and pose them as I've always wanted to do, but I feel very discombobulated from time loss and exhausted: which should not be the case with small pieces of plastic but also unsurprising. Nendoroids are their own little nightmare as of themselves, especially when pegs do not fit or refuse to go in.
Still, the majority are temporarily displayed, and I can figure out what I want where with the visual assistance of being able to see everything accurately in size. The only figures I haven't freed are the ponies, Estelle, and a couple of nendoroid/figma. I also started going through another cupboard where most of the bigger box nendos were hiding out... it's on my list of things to do.
I have early groceries tomorrow and am also getting some sealing adhesive for bookcase door gaps, which will fully protect from dust getting in. And some hanging tape for the picture frame fiasco. But I may truly need a break for a week, we'll see.
My body also rejected three foods this week, one which was previously fine but is a case of natural flavourings striking again, another which should have been okay but wasn't, and one that was somewhat expected, so that's been, as always, super duper fun.
