Winter garden.  What a concept.  Ours freezes solid in November and doesn't thaw until April.

I am picking my second week of sweet corn, my first few canning tomatoes from a plant I overwintered inside, and my first peppers.  I know that greens are pretty cold hardy, might be worth seeing how long into the season they last.  My potato patch is empty so I have a little room.

All of the heading plants will bear before December, but the greens will last straight through until they go to seed in the spring. It's so nice to have a fresh supply of greenery for the chickens in the winter.
In the rare event that we get a 2-3 inch snow, the greens will pop right back up once the ground thaws

Yes, that one.  It is a very pretty house.  It needs updating inside but that's no big deal.  The kitchen is straight out of the '80s, as are the bathrooms and the wallpaper and borders and light fixtures.  Those turnoffs are easy fixes for us.

I watch too much HGTV. I would love to see what Chip and Joanna Gaines could do inside that house

Once we see it in person, we'll be able to formulate a plan. #1 is the wallpaper and plush carpet goes out the door.

Haha yep, but I don't think her mama likes it.
No problem, and thanks!

I have a sick duck, so if someone would check out the thread Mentally Off Duck??? That would be great. Sorry I can't post the link here, the app won't do that.

Everything's okay, I hope.  I've just been in a lot of pain(stabbing, spasm type stuff), and it's in my back but it isn't my back.  They did a ct scan last night and found nothing. Inconclusives everywhere.  I should have been relieved but I wasn't.   They threw antibiotics and pain killers at me and sent me home. :/   I hate both of those things. I'm allergic to the pain killers, but I guess they think I am lying about the pain, b/c no one will listen to me. "Just try them. Just take them anyway and see what happens."  Umm. . . I know working in an ER is really tough, and you see a lot of liars and people who exaggerate, and I hate to be a bother, but I don't think a lower dose of Tylenol is going to help with the extreme nausea, hot flashes, and itching those LT give me. 

That was the nurses solution--the norco only has 325mg of tylenol, so it shouldn't make me sick.  To me, that points to her assuming I abused them and overdosed on the Tylenol and got sick or something.  But, I'm probably just in a bad mood.  So, here I am, up at almost 3am(!), the lonely only, complaining about stuff; reading about ct scans and chickens. . .   

Where is that soapbox you guys had earlier this week

ok, here's a totally out of character post, but I'm dead serious. You don't need a medical doctor, my guess is you need a psychiatrist. You don't get our sense of humor by growing up in Little House on the Prarie. You're holding on to some stuff that you don't want to deal with, and it's manifesting itself in physical pain.
That's all I have to say about that, and if anyone quotes me I will deny I ever said it

I totally agree with you, SC.
