1. With all the running around I have been doing, I was beginning to worry about Ding Kitty, and if she would be having any problems with me gone so much. (She was abandoned twice when she was a kitten.) I finally have a bit of time to rest, and she is a bit clingy, but otherwise, seems fine!
2. Part of her clingy MIGHT be the chill we've had here. Nothing like back east, but we have been down to 21 degrees a couple times. Bless him, Husband put up the window covers for the chickens, so they aren't freezing their tail feathers off!
3. We have had some nice fires in our fireplace. I keep wanting to make popcorn, marshmallow, something, but right now, just enjoying the warm is enough.
4. Oddball thankful, I was able to clean house. I couldn't figure out why I was getting bad allergies. Turns out, when you have a dust allergy, and you don't vacuum or dust for a month plus... Things get dusty! I was able to just work on getting some household stuff taken care of, at a good pace, but not a mad rush.
5. Mom is doing okay, improving slowly. There is mumbling that she will indeed be coming home soon! Lot of changes in store for everyone, but she'll be home.
6. Several vegetable seed catalogs have arrived. While I haven't dug through them in depth, it is a nice reminder that I have a garden!
7. While I am not Super Woman, I have been able to keep up with most of the stuff and nonsense that comes with taking care of two places. Some things are definitely not important. Some are vital. I learned pretty quickly which was which... !
8. I have enjoyed not watching TV. While I enjoy it, I was getting drained by trying to keep up with series I watch, and the news. I decided to just drop the series for now, and just do a quick read in the morning. I still try and catch the occasional show, but it's not vital. And the quiet in the evening is nice.
9. Terrariums are surviving, but getting a bit leggy. Have to work on that sometime, but, you know, they are still growing, so that's a win.
10. I am thankful that, with everything going on, I still seem healthy (if tired), family seems okay, and we are all working together to keep things going...
Take care, and enjoy your week!
