Good news, Susan! Good luck with those plans.

An item is now listed at eBay, after some last-minute consternation this afternoon. I double-checked to be sure I was listing mink, not muskrat. :) It is mink.

Laundry is folded and back where it belongs, one last tiny load is in on gentle. The washer is making a new noise tonight when it spins. Not good.

I ran a damp cloth up and down the clothes lines today, to clean off the general dirt built up this winter. I'm going to go back to drying outside now that we have warmer weather, longer days, and a better shot at clothes drying in an hour or two, tops.

I had to swing by Walmart the other day--I try to limit shopping there to about once a quarter--and pick up a brand of cat litter that only they seem to carry. While I was at it, I picked up a supply of decongestants. They have inexpensive knock-off versions of OTC expensive snot-buster guiafed drugs. While I was there I looked at the box ($14.50) of "50 precisely pre-measured doses" of "minerals" for the neti pot. You read the ingredients and do the math (sodium chloride = salt and sodium bicarbonate = baking soda) and you wonder why on earth someone would pay that much for way less than 50 cents worth of salt and baking soda? I'll mix up some of the cheap stuff here at the house and use it before bed.

Okay, off my soap box. . .
