Decided to learn how to shave the 1965 way. So far it’s all right.

I made the Dolly Parton “cuppa cuppa cuppa,” cake. For me, instead of fruit cocktail in syrup (or juice), I used tart cherries in water. I like how it turned out. Tasty.

I am so glad I put a very heavy-duty screw into a stud in the wall for this clock. Lily just thinks it’s her favorite perch!

I remembered that vinegar polishes copper, so I worked on my dented old teakettle for a while. It's not a perfect job (and, yes, the stove needs a wipe-down too) but it feels productive. Come on, dopamine. ;)

Rough day. So I added the c9 lights to the tree. (They are LED and on a dimmer, so the intensity is not always at 11.)

Got the tree assembled.
Lugged the tree up from the basement, pulled off the lights I tried last year (wayyyy too bright) and put different lights on it, this year. My workout for the day. The lights are Merry Co (formerly Vintaglo.)

Francine Ficus had dropped half her leaves (truly, the floor was carpeted with yellow leaves), so I gave her a bunch of water— the soil was bone dry. I know ficus don’t love overwatering, but they also are not desert cacti— ya gotta water ‘em *sometimes*.
