Sorry about your back Diane.
I have a sore throat and runny nose and I am sneezing. Covid test is negative but I am suspicious it is a false negative. it is just too close to my dad testing positive. I will find another kit and test again later. Meanwhile I will console myself with some christmas cookies from a friend. They arent the prettiest cookies but boy they taste the most delicious!

Oh no ohblondie, not more Covid! Hopefully it's just a head cold.
Before the 4:00 dog feeding I made the dog go out--this is a record, she hadn't been out for almost 20 hours. That can't be good, but if I make her go out before she has to go she doesn't do anything. Even now, she walked around the yard for 10 minutes before she finally did stuff. In the mud. I need to put mulch out there, I don't have enough for all the muddy spots but maybe I can block some of those off with my little metal fences.
I tried to get a cable news update but the programs have been reporting on the exact same stories every day for the last week. I guess the news stops over the holidays.
I will do a few more things before dinner time--wash more dishes and clean off my work table so I can actually work at it.

Good evening reve! I often get a song in my head and maybe I never even knew the singer, but when it's one I really like and know that I listened to a lot, it really bugs me when I can't remember. Aging brain, for sure--it takes me a long time to remember odd facts like that.
Okay, time to get ready for bed--good night everyone, see you tomorrow!

Good morning!
Last night I had trouble falling asleep but then slept pretty well til 6, so got about 6 hours. I'm a little worried about the dog because the last few days she's had more trouble walking, I hope it's just the damp, cooler weather.
I got a fair amount done yesterday and hope today is productive too.

Good morning cando, TT and womble!
TT, I hope the trip you're planning is a relaxing one, and not a stressful one.
Womble, I have never had a money plant--is this the one called a Chinese money plant? If so, it's one I always wanted to try. So I can't help with care, I have had that same frustration of not knowing if I'm watering too much or not enough, because if you guess wrong and increase or decrease incorrectly you'll make it worse! The only thing that I've learned is that in general, if the leaves turn yellow and dry out some, you're not watering enough, if they turn yellow but keep the same consistency, you're watering too much.
With some plants, the leaves start drooping when they need water--those are the easiest to water--not because you should wait until they droop first, but you can get an idea of how many days to go between watering. Although weather and humidity affect that too.
Now I want to go online and buy a money plant! Fortunately, I rarely buy plants in the winter because of shipping issues, so I'll have to wait!

I fed and medicated the dog and she wanted to go out already. This is what I mean by there is no predictable schedule any longer, just one day at a time. And, she seems to be walking a little better today.
TO DO:
10 minutes on plants 10 minutes on new file cabinet Restock water in fridge Delete 10 hard emails
