Hi everypony!

Did much much much paper work today----literally many hours of it. Recycled, sorted, shredded a lot and wrote 2 pieces of mail. I got rid of so much stuff; my desk feels relieved, I'm sure. Took down trash and recycling. Took trash to the curb. Did the dailies. Did laundry. Took a shower and washed my hair. Tomorrow, I hope to get more "business" work done. It is very cold here today and the wind has been impressive. It even blew the storm door shut onto my thumb. My porch plants are still blooming , but tonight's temp of 23 may finally do them in. My best to all. catcats

Ouch, catcats! But excellent that you got so much paperwork done!
Good morning all, the 5 day streak of good sleep is over, last night after an hour and a half of quiet the dog had a panting attack. Nothing different happened to cause it, so I don't get it. However, after about 45 minutes I walked around to where she was on the bed and actually picked her up for a few seconds (she weighs 60 pounds, I wasn't sure I could do it) and then moved her to a different part of the bed. She was quiet for a couple of minutes, did 5 more minutes of panting, and then stopped. I have to assume the shock of me picking her up disrupted whatever was going on in her mind, at least I hope so, because if that's the way to disrupt it I am happy to do that every night. Although I suppose the novelty of it will wear off for her. Honestly, if I could only understand what was going on with her.
I did still get around 6 hours of sleep so it wasn't terrible. Now I'm waiting for her to want to go out this morning.
It will be warmer today, a high of 40, so I will clean out the seed pool and maybe try to cut down a few plants in the yard.

Good morning everypony!
I hope to follow in your footsteps today and tomorrow, catcats--except for the thumb part! ugh, Diane, not knowing what is wrong with the pets is so hard!
Last night DVD and I reviewed the revised list and did some planning. This morning I revised the list twice more, and updated my holiday blog.
ALSO DONE: updated paper calendar checked online balance checked email
I am yawning, maybe I can go back to sleep despite coffee. It's cold, dark, and wet out.

Good afternoon ohblondie!
I see that two of my favorite Christmas movies are on the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries channel at 5pm and 7pm, so I will try to watch the first one--the second one is past my bedtime prep now that I'm going downstairs at 7! But I already have both of them on my DVR so that's okay. But it means I have to get things done that are away from the tv.
Next: Cut down some plants in the yard Sweep out basement well Look for my second thermal shirt which seems to have disappeared over the summer

I found my shirt, fortunately. I don't have that many clothes and there are only a few places I keep them, so it was weird to not find it at first.
I'm eating dinner and watching one of my movies. The weather for tomorrow still says possible rain but it sounds like it might hold off til afternoon, so I'm going ahead with my plans to walk to Walmart tomorrow.
Good night everyone, I'll see you all tomorrow!
Diane

hello... Diane hope your pup loves the hugs so much she stops panting! Puppy is a sixty pounder too, a bit small for her breed.
I last posted Monday. this week has been hardish. Tuesday I had a 9 am meeting and I woke up at 8:56 am! yikes. I had been up really early and fell back asleep but I slept through three alarms. I sent a quick apology text and actually got there at 9:30. that is amazing. I don't know how i did it. the traffic must have been super cooperative. since I was up earlier the animals had been fed and outside already so I just threw on some clothes and jumped in car...
yesterday we had a winter storm and it took me one extra hour to get home. driving was scary. I took puppy for a walk in the cold dark snow, she was delighted! my face was numb when we got home but it was joyful to see her nose-diving into the snow.
I am doing minimal stuff at home. dishes and litter. i am just kind of exhausted.
work is very busy which distracts me in a good way. I am dealing with major stuff there. Then today I rec'd a note from a part time person complaining and sort of threatening to quit I was just so worn out. I said the truth back - would not want to lose him but it might not be a good fit. but it just sort of depleted me. i feel like I am doing heroic stuff! and this person would have no idea of what we are up against came home, walked puppy. cold but not as cold as yesterday/ we did not see any deer for two days ! had a dinner, did dishes, texted a bit with DDD now i just plan to curl up under a blanket and binge for a bit.
