"Tab Clearing"

Though not literal tabs:

Mom continues to recover from her most recent mishap -- she broke ribs 1, 2 and 3 and was still occasionally dizzy; once the hospital was happy with her progress and medications, she graduated to a rehab facility -- for once, close to home, nice and able to provide her low-sodium diet. She's hoping to be back home in a week.

Mom's dog is diabetic and in all the excitement, his doggy insulin (or not so doggy: they get the good stuff, just like people. Lilly doesn't make "Dogalin") expired. Which was why he was having symptoms. That's been rectified.

Roseholme Cottage is going green! --A soft, woodsy green, with yellow trim. Nephew has the back wall all painted, ready for one more coat of the green but the trim's all done and I'm liking the combination. I'll post a preview as soon as I get the photos uploaded. My nephew has also got a request to bid on another job on the street: it seems good work is its own advertisement.

    In these times it is good to dig out the 1936 edition of "How to survive the tough times ahead."

    Rule 1 was "make yourself a job."

    It still is. Congratulations to the nephew. The best advertising is the cheapest. Word of mouth.
