SHEs Organized

Dogged - do you know about the yellow "stickies" you insert into plant pots and they get rid of those gnats?
Let me see if I can find a link:

(Walmart and others carry it, too)

I meant to ask you: you mentioned the flea/tick prevention for Germane . Have you had the discussion with the vet, taking into consideration her age, lack of exposure, etc.? I know vets made different suggestions to me when I had senior pups...

helia I thought I was the only one who hung onto aging laptops... (My dkids laugh about me with my 10 year old laptop)
Are you reading something fun?

Bama you set a good example with your dog walks:)
Sorry to hear about the electrical issues. (They always scare me) Hope it's all resolved quickly.

LAnn
the change in temp . is incredible. I was sweating by the time we finished our walk. (Which may have something to do with how I've been...) How is DD doing?

My day did not go as planned.
Needed a 2,5 hour nap before I could do anything. The cough was exhausting...
But, DDog got a 50 min walk just now. She is tired.

I'm going to see how much I can get done here. Everything is messy. (untidy). It bothers my eyes.
So:
:15 main floor PUPAs
:15 sw/sw powder room
:15 kitchen counters

Hello everyone!

L.Ann,.did you get anything nice at Kohl's? Free money is always nice!

Helia, 10 years is very impressive.for a laptop!

Bama,.I'm sure the new cooker will be worth all the scary electrical shenanigans!

Dogged, I totally.understamd non consensual grooming sessions. Freddie is changing his coat and he either can't reach his lower back,.or can't be bothered (not sure which!).so, the fir there starts to clump. Fortunately.he is short haired,.so doesn't get knots,. but I need to have more sessions with the furminator. Also fortunately,.since. he's had .his teeth done he's more tolerant of brushing,. but I don't want to push my luck!

KitKat, how very wise of you to listen to your body and stop when you needed to.

I've been productive (for me!) today. The sitting room is clean and tidy, the DW is reloaded and running, I spent a.little more time on my dolls house, and I've written those reports. I'll read them through again in the morning,.and,.if they still seem ok then, I'll email them to MD.

I hadn't seen those sticky things for the gnats, kitkat. Thanks for the suggestion.
The vet hadn't mentioned changing things up for Germane's flea etc control. I'm leaning toward putting it off until I come back from my db's house.

I'm glad that the trustee issues don't have any kind of hold on your life, helia. That's the important thing.

You know better than anyone about non-consensual grooking, Kittykatt, LOL. Germane doesn't want to bite me, so when I'm trying to trim her beard she opens her mouth really wide and throws her head around to clack the sides of her teeth against the scissors or my hand. Our sessions are necessarily short because I don't like to upset her.

I have been doing laundry. I'm on my way down to get the dryer load and start hanging.
