This ficus survived the 20 degree temps during the ice storm power outtage. This spring I pruned the rootball and put it out behind the picket fence. It had roots in the ground when I moved it this afternoon.

I haven’t brought in the rosemary or the lavender yet. I think I’ll bring a bunch of aloes to werk...free to good homes. Or I guess I could just process them for hand lotion.

I’ve had the heat on a couple of times...got it on now. I need to change the filter without the kittehs getting in the crawlspace.

Ficus are pretty plants and they look especially nice with Christmas lights on 'em. I brought the bay tree back from the brink of death, and need to find a good place to put it inside. We salvaged what little catnip was left and repotted it and put it downstairs in a window. Hopefully Jackson, the little pot-head, will have fresh catnip this winter.

I gave up and turned the heat on this morning, it was 60 degrees in here, and Annie was screaming.

I need to change the filter without the kittehs getting in the crawlspace. But kittehs NEED to explore!
