Awwww, so sorry that you fell! And have the bumps and bruises now, to remind you of it! :cry::(
Falling unexpectedly is not fun! I know from experience. :confused:

I too, hope that your kitty will be willing to eat the different food, and improve visibly soon, too.

@hollydolly .. That's a boring day? Sounds like you got a fair bit done! All I did today was, answer emails and read while dusting a bit and doing laundry. I feel like a lazy-bones :oops:

honestly pinks, I need a lot more to do than this, I just don't settle well with nothing much to do.. it may sound like I did a lot to people, but when you break it down it really was very little .. I didn't even go out today either lol

I forgot all about jade plants. :geek:
I used to have them, years ago, and loved them. Had an old one, that got fairly large, in its indoor pot.
I once saw a large jade tree, growing outdoors, at the Botanical Garden in Washington D.C.
Wow, I was shocked to learn they grew that way :oops:
It was taller than a human and fully branched out, as well!🤩

yes they grow them huge in hot countries where we've visited..in Spain, Cyprus, Turkey Greek Islands etc....also the Chinese love them they are supposed to bring money luck...

Um. Does Andy need a bigger bed? Just a tad bigger? Just a skosh?

Y'all are gonna think I'm nuts, but for a long, long time we all sort of participated virtually in the "progress" of the preparation and sale of @debodun's house and the move to her new one. I feel kind of all at sea now that it's all done:(...sort of like the letdown after the activity of the Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year's holidays.

Andy actually had a smaller bed, this is the bigger one that 🎅brought him. He likes to spread out when he sleeps.! If he wants to, he can curl up small enough to fit 2 of him in that bed! LOL

The cleaning out and selling of her house was a huge undertaking, and you were quite involved with all that she was going through...now it's time for you to find a different project! 😁

Well I've had a really boring day tbh... the day has dragged.. I really need to have much more to do than I currently do..

After the usual chores.. I had 4 parcels delivered , 2 of which weren't due until tomorrow, but hey that's got those out of the way and save me staying in for them tomorrow . One was some potting soil for the indoor plants, another was a really pretty pink marble shallow bowl (vase).. on a gold stand for my dressing table.., and after about 10 years I've donated all the floral white china faberge egg style ornaments from my dresser in exchange for the new one... . The 3rd was a floral print summer dress with long sleeves.. which are so difficult to get here ( the long sleeves)..and it was massively reduced in the sale online from a high street store.. so now that's been put away for spring .. and the fourth was a new Plant pot because I'm going to split my big jade plant into 2, and repot them in 2 new smaller pots.. , which I'll do tomorrow ..

I've bagged up some of my coats, including North face jackets, to donate. . they are all in excellent condition but I've had them a long time, and I don't wear them, so better that someone else gets good use out of them.

I've taken pics of an office desk to sell online.. it's almost brand new less than a year old, so I will sell rather than give it away..

It's almost 10.30pm..I'm just going to load the car boot up with the donations bags, and 3 picture frames that I need to return to the store in the next day or 2.. otherwise if I don't load them in the car I'll leave the house without them..

Does anyone else do that ?.. or is only me ?.. I can't tell you how many times I've bagged stuff up for the charity shop, and got to town only to discover they're not in the car..so this is why I'm learning to load them into the car the day before ..:D

ETA...oh yes and I cooked rump steak for dinner, and watched my fave weekly tv show while eating it off a tray in front of the TV

Good grief! You've done more in one day than I usually do in a week! LOL

The thumb stays...whoopee. Cancer gone.
View attachment 207572
Surgeon is over the moon with the skin graft. Never had success like it for this particularly bad case.
He said we made history.!

Ten stitches in arm will come out March 1 but oh what a relief to get all the heavy bandaging off.
Nurse will come every two days to dress thumb and Dr will check then and take pictures for records.

Does he offer a hands/feet/& face combo deal?:unsure:
That would be my preference. ;):giggle::geek::LOL::love:

now a group visit would be lovely and I will ask if he does combo deals and offers group rates so will check it all out with him March 1st when I get arm stitches out....course I have only one bedroom so we would have to take over local hotel.....nice for recovery period though and right on the lakefront so pack bikinis too.....okay ?😆:giggle:😘😛
 
It's a gloriously sunny morning, but it's forecast to rain from 1pm..it's just after 11am now... so I got out into the garden and repotted 2 Jade plants into nice new pretty indoor pots, one in Pistachio colour for the kitchen and the other is in a Gold Satin finish in the livingroom.. and put them by the sunny windows.. .
One is a good few years old and the other is new..so I hope they continue to thrive..

Bagged all the remaining new potting soil, and put it away in the barn.. then came in and Vacc'd all downstairs, then chatted with the postman who dropped a package off.. that's the 4th time this week that I've ordered something from Amazon.. and it's been delivered by the postman and not the Amazon delivery driver..

replied to 2 emails.. and a whatsAap from a family member... and now I'm having a cuppa tea.. and cake.. ..

I hope it does rain tbh.. because my car desperately needs washing, and I don't cant to do it until the rain is over.. and if it doesn't rain, I'll be irritated that I could have gone out and got it done..

Whatever I wrote yesterday, I am doing today. My day got all messed up yesterday due to helping my neighbor. I did manage a new blog post though. Then my computer lost its connection because I had moved some things near the modem and must have unplugged it. I finally got it back up though but took me awhile to figure out what was wrong. This morning while having my coffee I will be editing pictures. I took a bunch yesterday for using on future blog posts.

Right now Rabbit is making the "banana time" face at me, so better drink my coffee!
 
Have to drive into the city daughter has 2 appointments (eye glasses and Covid booster) will be long day, sh has to.go to work for a couple of hours after we get back.

Keep a good thought for us i hate driving in the city and they still have a lot of snow and ice down there too.Luckily every place we have to go is on main streets, one slightly off main but a row of medicsl.offices sonits probably plowed good.
