    I'm still fighting Japanese beetles. I found one gap around a window sill where they were getting in and stopped that but the ones that made it in are still wrecking havoc. I need to get some lemon oil, or just a lemon and make some spray up. I did read that you can make your own bait using one...

    We have a freeze warning for tonight. Down to 28. It was 86 yesterday, 51 today and windy so not pleasant out even though it's sunny. My forsythia bushes are blooming along with three of our peach trees. Oh well. There's always next year. At least my tulips aren't opened yet so maybe they will...

    So glad to hear that he is feeling better. You might find you have a hard time reining him in once he starts REALLY feeling good.

    Oooooo my favorite. I jack up the sound on the stereo system until the woofers vibrate and play it over and over. Makes the Amish pick up the pace when they ride in front of the house, lol. Morning all. We had storms roll through last night. Mostly embedded thundershowers. One had thunder...

    I hadn't either and neither had they but the old man's father told me about it himself and said they were trying to figure out what to do with the money. One thing they did was buy a new car....so while they didn't tell me exactly how much they were refunded but enough to buy a new Taurus has to...

    Her family wasn't too happy about it but I told them it was her dying instructions and I was going to follow them. The couple that lived next door to me before I met DH had the husband's father living across the street from them in an apartment. he was in his 90s when he died and had done a...

    DH and I walk. In fact we need to get out today with Pi. She's in that rebellious stage right now and is a lot easier to deal with if she is tired so we will hopefully get her out for a half hour walk in the woods this afternoon. Unfortunately, I have to follow a rather strict diet for health...

    I heard a report once upon a time that said that the one bad thing with liposuction is that you could get rid of the 'extra' fat cells but remaining would just take over. My doctor's practice offers a procdedure called 'fat sculpting' where they freeze fat cells destroying them. Might be some...

    My mother used to say that we all want to go to heaven but none of us are anxious to make the journey. I have to admit I'm bad about talking about it with DH. We have talked but that is all. I've dealt with so much death in my career that it's something I tend to push to the back of my mind a...

    @Rambling Iris So glad to hear that everything went well. Tell DH to listen to the doctors and take it easy and when he's feeling better give him a big hug from all of us. And have him give you one, also. Caregivers need TLC also.:hugs

    https://www.amazon.com/General-Mills-Gold-Medal-Trumps/dp/B00B42ZDZA This is twice the price I can get it for here. I don't know if you have any Amish around you in Utah but look for bulk stores and I'll bet you find it. I looked at general mills site and they say in your area epallet and food...

    Morning @h2oratt. Hope you are feeling better also. @Granny Hatchet. Ask around. I've put ceiling fans in, swapped them out. It's not hard. I bet you know somebody who knows somebody who can do it for you. So I scored 30 pounds of All Trumps flour, It's high gluten which is why bread likes it...

    I am so blessed. I notice the house is dirty. Living rural with 3 dogs and 3 cats in one half of the house and 4 dogs in the other half, it's hard to keep any home immaculate. You can dust mop, turn around and there are hair balls chasing you. DH knows how bad I hurt and when I apologize for the...
