You weren't supposed to tell them about the prototype

I just knew you would get that one!

I do, thanks for asking. I've actually talked to my sister and told her I need her a couple times a year at least for her to come and stay with Dad so I can get a break. I don't ask the siblings for much, but it gets harder and harder the more his health declines and I get burnt out faster and faster so I think it's fair. She agrees so depending on financial and the condition of my vehicle I might get another get away in the fall.

While she is at your house, trade cars as well.

Aren't you going to Georgetown? Beautiful area. I love the SC coast. Will you be going into Charleston any? A lot of good food and shopping down there. Charleston is a good scene. The way the whole city handled itself after the shooting made me even more proud to be from SC. Other incidents tore other cities apart. This one has drawn the whole state closer together

Yeah, you need to let your sibs know what you need. You shouldn't bear all the burden alone. What about your brother (seems most people have a sib like that) helping out financially?

Joining in if its ok! Northern here, born and raised. Moved to NC after graduating college to teach. Loved living there but never became a tea drinking, grits eating girl. Met my husband, also a northerner while in NC as he was serving in the military. Married and moved to Alaska a few years later. Loved Alaska and we should have tried to stay. Lived there three years before being moved to Virginia. Spent a few years in Virginia and then my husband retired. Moved back north and we bought our house which sits on about 2 acres. Finally got chickens (8) and just ordered another 8 plus a meal maker from Meyer. Would love to incubate some in the next year. First I need to learn to use the saw...not sure I can talk my husband into another coop....

Welcome, Ohio. You've been around the block! If this old biddy can build a coop, green house, and tractors, I'm sure you can do it. But, you gotta have power tools to even the playing field between male brawn and female not so brawny! Chop saw is a must, followed by pneumatic nailer, skill saw, and a good drill. Jig saw if cutting anything funky or not straight.
