    Christmas gift quandary

    DDs have asked if they can purchase a pair of shoes as a Christmas gift. The recipient would be a schoolmate that lives in our community and rides on the same bus. They're more acquaintances than they are friends. They feel bad that this person seems to only have one pair or worn out shoes...

    Public Education rant

    I was just notified by DD that once again, we need to purchase another book that she needs for her high school class, that the school is not providing and she needs it by Monday. This is the 3rd time this semester that we received a last minute purchase notification. What's the point of...

    Need opinions from Landlords and Tenants - SORRY LONGWINDED

    Hello all! It's getting close to the time where we need to decide if we're willing to renew the lease with our tenants. I don't know how the tenants feel or what they're planning, so we're trying to decide what we want to do. I've never been a Landlord before and I've never rented, so I'm not...

    FFA Question

    We have a young man who works at our house several times a month. He's really a great kid, smart, hardworking, the kind that seems to be getting harder and harder to find. He's in the FFA at school and raised a pig this year. When I asked what he was planning on showing next year, he said...

    Someone stop the madness!!

    The broody madness! This is just getting ridiculous. All of my laying-age silkies/silkie-x hens are either on eggs, with chicks, just finished with their chicks or recently broken of their broodiness. We're talking 13 hens people! Now the non-silkies are getting involved. The BCM started...

    Question for Renters and Landlords

    How did you find the place you're renting? How long does it usually take for you to get your rental rented? I've been posting our rental on Craigslist, militarybyowners and another military site. We have a rental sign in front of the house. Do you have any suggestions on what else we can do...

    Finding a well?

    Our neighbor behind us told DH that he was pretty sure there was a well on the backside of the property at one time. Does anybody have any idea how we would go about finding an old well?

    What color are these orpington chicks?

    I bought some BBS Orpington eggs here on BYC. I'm not sure what color these chicks are. The eggs were marked blue, but they seem really light to be blue, compared to pics I looked at on feathersite. They almost seem to be lavender, maybe splash. Any orpington pros out there that can tell me...

    Egg Sales!

    Holy Egg Sales! I have 30+ pet chickens, all named and spoiled. We only eat maybe a dozen a week. So with that many chickens, I've been giving a whole lot of eggs away. The milk co-op we belong to used to get eggs from a local farm, but something killed most of their birds and they don't...

    Calling all rental owners - need advice

    We're in a first time situation, where we now have a rental property and aren't quite sure what to do with it. The home we recently purchased has a 1,130 sq ft, 1bd/1ba (with room for 2nd bedroom if we build an interior wall) guest house. It has it's own address, driveway and electric meter...

    Clotheslines - Who has one?

    Now that I can have clothesline on the property, I'm not sure what kind to get. Who has a clothesline, what type (portable, retractable, permanent T-pole, etc.) and would you recommend it? I think the front yard would be the best site or on the deck, so I'm leaning away from something permanent.

    Vinyl plank flooring - What's your experience/thoughts

    We're trying to do some renovations to our new house and guest house on a tight budget. The carpet in the master is pretty icky and needs to be replaced. The master bedroom is right above DD's bedroom (the only room downstairs). We like the look of wood, but I don't think hardwood flooring...

    Bucket nest boxes - Do your chickens fit?

    Does anyone use 5 gallon buckets as nest boxes for their larger-than-bantam chickens? I've seen pictures of people using them, but I look at the bucket and I look at my 10# BA and think how in the world is she going to stuff herself in there??? I even question if my smaller BR and CM could...

    Cable TV vs Satellite TV

    We'll be moving to our new house sometime next month and we need to decide if we're going to go with Cable or Satellite. I've only had one experience with satellite and it wasn't very good. However, it was a mountain cabin that belonged to my boss, so after it pooped out, no one was ever there...
