But I got it done. I had to transplant my cactus cuttings into different containers to fit them all in. But as you can see they fit. I ended up with over 30 starts. The only thing I need to bring in now is my 2 big cactus and my trees. I will get that done tomorrow.
I also got my closet switched around. My sleeveless shirts are now in a drawer. My long sleeves are hanging up. I did throw a few shirts into the donation bag. I was glad my long sleeves were easy to get as we went to play euchre tonight. It's always cold in that building.
Hope you had a good day.

It's interesting to hear all of you reporting that it is turning cold. Maybe you are in the USA. I'm in Argentina and here it is like spring, gradually getting warmer, flowers on the trees. Bees pollinating. So different from when I lived in the Northeastern and Midwest US!

@wolfgirl569 - Transplanting is a lot of work and not a funny job.
Tomorrow we expect a lot of rain and wind.

My arms are cold as I sit here MyLotting; but I don't like long sleeved tops. It just keeps raining; and it's chilly outside. I'm glad you got to play euchre. I would get a cactus start from you if I lived closer.

I can mail you one. They ship easily. All you would need to do is stick it in dirt and water.

@wolfgirl569 No thank you. That's too much trouble. They have to be inside in the winter, right?

Changing the closet over for the new season. Mine is all there. I have a walk-in closet.
30 starts is a lot. Are you planning to sell some or what?
Have a good one. Good luck at the euchre games tonight.

Cleaning out the closet for the changing seasons is GREAT! Makes you feel all fresh and new.

Yeah, it’s that time of year to hid the shorts. 
(I don’t hide mine too deeply, because when it gets to cold I’ll go somewhere where I can wear shorts!)
Glad you’re getting the work done. Stay warm! Hope your pellet burner doesn’t give you any trouble this year.

My shorts are in a drawer. I wear them inside even in the winter.
Fingers crossed it behaves

Never heard that. And edible foods are good energy. These are edible.

@wolfgirl569 I didn't know that was edible. Really?

Hi Eva! I love all plants, big nature fan here. I think cactus are fascinating and when in bloom, some of the most gorgeous blossoms. I love them. It's a big job you got done, and I bet you feel accomplished right about now! Good work, taking care of nature's little wonders with stickers!
