Interesting day, and the weather finally warmed up to the high 40s, so I didn't feel so bad about putting the dogs out in the yard for a while.

I am now the proud owner of a bidet that I will install in the master bathroom soon. "All of your kids got together on this one," because they and their partners have them and I commented last summer that I should look into it. My daughter apparently set this in motion back then.

The house is cleaned up after all of the food, and I decluttered sent home a number of good storage containers (Rubbermaid for both food storage and large under-the bed bins). I'd gotten them out not knowing if she'd be interested. The lamp that was re-homed is much appreciated by the recipient, and I sent a lot of food home with my ex. Breads and cookies went with my daughter. Next year I'll look into healthier fruits and nuts for gifts, none of us need the calories. I got into a baking mood this year, but will need to pace myself better next time.
