Well hello danny! Nice to see you, how have you been?
The problem with the plants is that I don't have room for any more! Plant overpopulation! And I know so few people up here that I can't give the baby plants away to anyone. That's another reason why I would like to have a little library, I would give away plants as well as books. I was thinking of that again for spring but I just don't know how much interest there would be in this neighborhood for a little library.
I will now do a couple of lists before dinner.
Next:
Wash more dishes Write down book notes for the end of the year, my total read for 2023 is 105! Email shopping friend's friend to tell her about latest phone call Find a box or bin for the Christmas cards

The cardinal just called me to put out food!
I found a permanent place for one of the spider plants and the cuttings. I found a temporary out of the way place for the spider plant that looks like it's on its last legs. My fault, I didn't want it enough at the end of the season because it required me to bring the step stool out and I just didn't have the energy to do that. I cut all the babies off and I will see if it recovers.
I also washed the silverware and a bowl from the dishpan downstairs which only leaves two items in it that need to be soaked, I'm find with that. I always have a few items in the dishpan upstairs because I won't wash until the pan is somewhat full. Downstairs is done!
Now upstairs has a few issues, I need to finish the last few dishes since I already have water in the dishpan, and I need to clean today's work off of the work table. And, put the cards in the box. Oh, and clean up the birdsseed that I spilled on top of the dresser this morning. Then upstairs will be done too.

Wow bree, I just went to the 2023 thread to list my final total and I see you made it to 2023, congratulations! You mentioned you finished the challenge but I didn't know if that meant you made it to the goal--that has to feel good!
I decided to continue in that thread next year because I keep finding old paper in hidden places. And most of it is time consuming or I would already have gotten rid of it, so I will try again next year.
I still have to post on the challenge thread tonight.
Oh, and speaking of challenges, scholar, I see you might have a thread for getting rid of emails, if you do, I will join. Seeing your totals makes me feel better about mine (isn't that terrible??) because I'm somewhere between 5 and 6 thousand now, down from 10 but that was years ago. The trouble is that the ones left are mostly ones that are time consuming. But I will continue to work on reducing them.
Okay, I have been putting off cleaning up the bird seed, I will do that now.

Done! I am done, I am back at baseline, and I am going to try really hard to stay there at least a good part of the next month.
Good night everyone, see you tomorrow, which means see you next year!

I have read and enjoyed all of your posts and continue to wish you all well as you do many things.
After Mass today, Carolyn and I talked for a long time in the car and made plans to get together sometime next week. I did the dailies and started a wash load, but won't go down to finish it until tomorrow. I am tired.
Mostly spent the day on the computer and my LR TV is not up and working yet.
I will stay up and see in the New Year and do not mind being alone.
Have had a long talk with my BFF in CT.
My love to all. Happy New Year !!!
