@ellamster, @gingerw, @sueinmn, @johnbishop, @SusanEllen66 and all....Well, folks, you all sound so good. You know, looking out the window is a pretty good deal for all of us, especially is we're dealing with stuff. Aren't we all??? Yep...

I need to fill my feeders, again! It's about ever other day I need to refill, and once weekly I clean. They're lucky I do it that often. Actually, that keeps all the baths and feeders and water jugs looking good and free of disease, I think. Seems to be a good schedule.

Well, I was too loud spouting off about not watering my orchids too much. When my son was here for several weeks needing my help, I might get a bit agitated or emotionally wrought....guess what I do? I putter. That means watering the downstairs inside plants, it's often too hot and uncomfortable to water the outside unless I must. So, that's exactly what I did. My 2 white orchids began dropping blooms about 2 days ago. I almost freaked!

The wonderful hot pink/red phaleonopolis is still in full bloom and putting out new buds. I missed adding the water to her, but the white ones' blooms are gone now. I'm sad. But, they'll dry out and rebloom.

The money tree leaves are getting too large for its space with the orchids and succulents. I have to find it a new home now, maybe soon a new pot. But, that's puttering for another day. This week I've been cleaning out my bedroom closets. I have 3 all full and I regularly clear them out. But, it's been a couple of years since I went through the process of going through
my clothes. I've recently lost about 30 pounds so this is a great time to tackle this job.

It feels so good! I tried on everything in one closet yesterday, another one today, and tomorrow will be the last. I still have so many jackets I wore for business and socially, but neither happens these days, so it's time to rid myself and my shoulders of these loves. Someone can enjoy them, or they get tossed. I did the bins/stacks-keep, donate, sell, toss. I'm actually throwing away clothing. Never done that before. Feels sooooo good.

I'm working with my son to help him do the same and install closet organizers for him. We're fitting his home for his life with physical limitations. That's a huge step for him, a sign of acceptance that's been a long time coming. At any rate, he'll be more comfortable and live a better life.

The pool therapy is helping me get some control over my body, for the first time in many years. That relaxation is life-changing. It's allowing me to get the needed exercise also, as I'm feeling better I'm more able to move in the water. I really recommend this therapy for anyone with pain from neuropathy, arthritis, fibromyalgia, spine pain, and more. It helps.

Good-night all. Be well. Be blessed. Elizabeth
