Good morning! Thank you lennon, for starting the thread!
I woke up a little before the alarm went off at 6, I was having a strange dream about being in a work situation being forced to attend a team-building workshop where we had to throw things at each other...I guess it doesn't qualify as a nightmare but definitely qualifies as an icky dream. So I was able to get up at 6, I had pretty good sleep other than that dream--the fact that I'm remembering some dreams now is amazing to me, my sleep was so bad my first couple of years here that I never remembered any at all.
Today will be a plant care catch up day, and I hope to continue to work on the fridge.
Diane

Hi lennon and Diane and all to come Happy Lunar New Year! I last posted Thursday and thanks to Diane, mylittlescholar danny15 and catcats for your support with my DD computer trip! i was glad to be able to do something to help her in a concrete way. We also signed the lease for her apartment for off campus living next year. just praying things go well for her. Thursday i ran a bunch of errands after work and walking puppy. I love running errands! I had to pick up a prescription, buy dog food, make an ATM deposit, mail something, and go pay an important bill. yesterday I had to go in for a meeting - should be a wah day. after the meeting I had an immediate zoom that i had to sign into then I came home. I had dropped puppy off at daycare so it was a quiet day. got some work done and then I went to a wake, picked up puppy and crashed. I am still tired. debating going to a funeral today. I don't want to really go but ...I would have gone to the wake last night but it was the same time as the other wake, a closer person. Is this a new phase of life of competing funerals and wakes? I might just send a card. the place where the funeral is is small and this is a big family and I just picture myself w out a seat...just stressful thoughts ! gallows humor I guess. I have so much to accomplish this weekend. In no order do dishes to shiny sink vac living room vac stairs vac dining room vac kitchen vac hallway vac entryway vac bathroom vac my room mop bathroom floor mop entry way mop kitchen put away Christmas tree (! ornaments are off) put away outdoor decorations put away door wreath put away lights on mantle deal with paperwork pay a bill work on budget go grocery shopping walk puppy watch that football game go to church do some stuff related to making a hard decision that I keep putting off that is causing me angst. I am such a poor decision maker. I get nervous so I procrastinate so I make it all harder dust wood furniture clean mirrors and glass table top replace some light bulbs do laundry load one do laundry load two do laundry load three go check out a home store to look for some decorative storage bins/baskets have a good weekend!

Good morning bree!
Good luck on making your hard decision. Break it down into baby steps if you can (like if you have to research, for example).
I'm going to do as you're doing today and put my little Christmas tree away!

Now I am finally going to pot up the corn plant cuttings that I took ages ago, they have rooted beautifully but have been in water all this time so I hope they are okay when I put them in soil. This will take a while.

Finally, that job is done. There are two stalks in a giant pot, which I moved to the reading room window. I still have two little 6 inch pieces of stem that I'm also trying to root, they have produced little leaves but very minimal roots so I guess I'll leave those in water for now.
Next:
Organize 2023 tax file folder and file it away 10 minutes on plant research Choose some military names Delete 10 hard emails

I fed the dog a little while ago and offered to take her out, she didn't want to go, which I hope means she's okay until 8:00.
I'm just about done for today, before I start making dinner I'm going to revise my ChemoAngels letter. The last time I wrote to a patient was two years ago, so I'm sure it needs updating. They put out a special email saying they needed people to write, so I decided to go ahead and ask for another person since I've been in letter-writing mode lately.
This day went by so fast, but I got a lot done so I guess I'm happy with it. I always want there to be more time to do things!

That was really odd, I know I had a ChemoAngels person a couple of years ago, but I can't find that intro letter. I found the one last used in 2019, and it was really depressing. In 2019 I still had my sister, I still had my 2 old cats, I was still in my old neighborhood and I was still dog walking. So I basically had to rewrite the whole letter.
Now I will have dinner and then it'll be time to get ready for bed.
Good night everyone, see you tomorrow!
Diane

so DVD's insurance requires him to get his CPAP rechecked, which means he can't wear it for at least a week before hand, which means big time snoring, etc., which means I am sleeping in the chair. which means I took a sleep aid and did't get up until almost 2:00 pm.
anyway I have been slowly getting my bearings.
DONE: took meds checked online balance transferred $ checked email checked calendar updated DVD looked at his new Bonsai and agreed to join the Bonsai club cleared out BR a bit sorted laundry booted laundry washed up and got dressed swept and changed litter texted w/ LR and DF and spoke with DM decided not to go to the lantern parade and to use the crock pot
flipped laundry made a snack
