    Droopy, I, too, hope it's just a cold. As Sjoerd suggested, as a precaution get tested.
    Folding bed linens? If you have method to fold fitted sheets, please tell me with specific instructions and diagrams if possible.

    Good morning! We have 6°C and sun, and I have a bad case of cabin sickness in addition to the cold. It's gonna be another do-nothing-day. I'd rather be gardening. Enjoy your Wednesday and send some more nice weather my way please.

    Yes, sir! I have, twice. It's negative so just a bad case of the common cold.

    Haha! There are instruction videos on YouTube, but I have these fancy, small bags that came with the sheets, so I just put them in there.

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently -7°C and overcast.
    Not an exciting yesterday ... as like Droopy, I had a do-nothing-day.
    I did mange to dig out all the 4" pots and trays in my garden shed and move to the greenhouse. It's impossible to move in that garden shed this time of year so I thought I did good!
    My shed smells like mouse pee, so as soon as the snow is gone and my tires are moved out I'm going to have to do a complete cleanout. Already found an empty nest in some flower pots UGH There is nothing I hate more than mice!!!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good morning! Today is plant herbs day. I have my six cell starters cleaned and ready, fresh potting soil, and seeds. I most assuredly will have Time the cat helping me. She loves dirt!
    Husband mulched two of our apple trees, and came in with the good news (?) that it's time to prune one. Guess what we'll do tomorrow!

    Good Thursday morning all. Currently -17°C and sunny. With the wind it feels much colder.
    Went upstairs after my dog walk to turn on my grow lights and noticed that some of my peppers have germinated! :setf_016:
    Today is Thursday and that means its errand and grocery shopping day. I don't need much so it should be a quick trip.
    Have a great day all :)

    Thursday morning, -1°C. Thursday afternoon +9°C. It's dry and sunny, but I'm not fit to do anything. We took PCR-tests today, just to find out if we're really covid negative. Probably won't get the results until tomorrow, but there's no rush for any of us. We've got the Nintendo 64 up and running, so we'll be fine. Wishing all a lovely Thursday.

    Just got in from planting lettuce and spinach. The broccoli starts are hardening off on the patio, and we turned up and trellised the sugar pea bed. We haven't yet decided where the cucumbers and squash go, but we'll probably have a vigorous discussion about that soon.
    After a winter of just dusting, mopping, and baking, a bit of outdoor time sure tires this person out!
    Hope you all have a good Thursday, and can get into the dirt soon.

    Jane—My Bride just shakes her head up and down in recognition with a big chuckle.

    Good morning! 4°C and cloudy with promise of sun later, then rain/sleet, or thick rain as we call it. Covid PCR-test came back negative, so I guess we've just got the 'flu. If this is a common cold I've never had common cold before. Today will be another do-nothing-day since I'm still queasy and dizzy when I try to do anything bar sitting/lying down, preferably on the couch. Enjoy your Friday. Hope it will be better than mine.

    Good Friday morning all. Currently -9°C and sunny.
    No plans yet for the day. I'm going to have my coffee (and maybe another) and think about it. I have very little ambition today.
    We do have to be at the rink for 5:40 tonight.
    Have a great day all :)

    Droopy, in response to your post about just putting fitted sheets into their little bags, I saw this and immediately thought of you: "I fold fitted sheets the same way I fight a boa constrictor." I think I'd have better luck with the boa!

    Hahaha, @marlingardener, that's how I used to feel about them. One woman I know roll them up and tie them in a knot. I haven't tried.

    Good morning! (That's a wish, not a demand.) We've got wet, windy, chilly weather again, but at least the moisture comes down already shovelled, lol. It's 3°C outside and it's a very good day for trying to do a little housework. I want to spend time sorting through some amusement park photos today and put them in plastic pockets and then in binders. Our youngest will help. We need to try and put a year to them and I can kick myself for not having thought of that when we visited the parks and bought those ride photos. A nice clue is how the children look, and as soon as we have a couple of years right, the rest might (!) be a breeze. Wishing you a satisfying Saturday.
