I was to have gone to my brother's today for an overnight visit, but this morning, after viewing what the weather channel had to say about it, I called him, and we agreed that I will drive over there next Tuesday.  He had to walk to his job this morning, and had trouble slipping and sliding on the ice, so he was very understanding about my not wanting to drive today.  Also, it's very foggy.

Of course, I love this weather, as long as I can view it right at home.  I definitely am going for a walk later on.  My friend, John, is sick (again) with flu-like symptoms, and I just hope and pray that I don't get it. 

Arnie's wound is not healing well, and today, I've started him on a course of amoxycillin treatment, 500 mg. every 6 hours.  I believe it's a bite wound from another dog he has to deal with (not ours) and it's probably abcessed.  John doesn't have enough money to pay a vet, so I will have to do whatever I think is best here.  The bite is on his left hind leg.

And my kitchen sink pipes underneath keep falling apart some, and draining into a bucket I have sitting under it (that's good!), but the annoyance factor is building up there for me.  I may take some wire later on, and tie the whole thing up tighter. 

But I didn't sleep a wink last night, due to worrying about driving in this weather, and now I'm so tired, I will just have to lie down and catch a nap.  The seed catalogs have been arriving in droves, and I had made that resolution that I didn't need any more seeds?  I could spend thousands.  I would need a huge field and a tractor to plant everything I would like to grow.  My 30' x 30' garden, plus whatever I can manage in side plots (not enough sunny places) will just have to do, and it will be a lot of work anyway.  So restraint is in order.
