You all are so interesting! I have been trying to do so much. I think I honestly need a handy man to fix or do all this little crap that I never get to. I got a guy coming to tile my back splash on my kitchen. The kitchen still needs some small stuff done here and there.
I need to take pics of my garden. My tomatoes are doing well but seem to need a boost for blooms, so I did that.
Roses. Well around 2000, I had 80 rose bushes. It got too tiresome to take care of them and the deer needed an electric fence to stop them. So it wasn't 80 for long (NY)/ Well I've had only 2 roses that did well in Florida. Now I am here in Indiana. I have 5. From reading, I find that they are not planted deep enough. So I'm working on a raised box that's deeper.
You would think with all my experience I would know what I'm doing. The last rose "bareroot" came and I planted it. But the next day I see squiggly canes and thin. I then realize that I planted it upside down!!!!! Mind you this was a special rose as well. It's been a week and it's still looking good with the roots in the ground. How embarrassing !
My variety of squash has taken over but needs phosphorus as well (for blooms or fruit) because there's no buds yet when I should have a lot. So all got that fertilizer that's high in phosphorus . I never had problems like this! I'm getting more started plants from this company...………….
My daughter introduced me to a company called "Grow Joy". They send healthy started plants of everything and her garden is doing much better than mine! So I ordered a few things. They are out of a lot, but the site is really worth checking out.
I have planted some stalks with growth hormone and the only thing that really took off is 6 growers of weeping willow. They do grow fast.
As for chickens, my Maybelline (Houdan) wants to be snuggled for a nap. My Freckles (Houdan) wants to be held. My 51 (Houdan) wants to be held but not so long. Then my 4 th Houdan loves to be held and chats non stop. #5 is my Psycho who now feels left out not being held but will still peck me hard. Especially if I pet her on the ground. Strange bird. Now one of my BR's Fern Flame, wants to hang out and nap. The other 2 Ferns come sit on me but just for a few minutes.
Does anyone agree that BR's have a personality all their own? They are very good at getting what they want, follow me around, and peck my calves for attention. It got so bad I got a water pistol! My 12 yr old blind Polish girl still finds her food and water and is now bak baking for food in the morning. I can also say that I am surprised that Houdans aren't more popular. They don't run, and like mine, they want that human snuggle. Very docile and pleasant. The perfect "Pet". And standard size, bigger than Polish.
I have been battling health Insurance, you know someone made an error and I do my circle of calls that have only clueless or made a mistake and insist it is not them. I cried today. No one explains their system to me. Then one part splits to 2 but I was never told. It's nuts to back track in my paperwork to see what Medicare and United Health have done wrong.
I've learned one thing for IRS mistakes. Make copies of all that you have, and send it to every darn address listed that you can find. I found 4 with IRS and one finally said I owe nothing and Case Closed.
I have saved every bill and every co-pay and only pay them by check so my bank has the actual checks I wrote that can be printed out. Thank goodness I have filed them all because twice a copay bill has been paid but months later they bill me the same thing. Now I have the cancelled check to copy and send them.
Right now the doctor's office has sent me a bill for $1,000. I think it was coded wrong or sent to the wrong insurance when Medicare is supposed to pay whatever and then the bill goes to my secondary insurance. All thru Medicare. I think some of these idiots bill my secondary and it's denied because they were already paid thru Medicare. The errors go on and on. Bottom line-I should only get this small co-pay.
Latest I am trying to put together a surprise party for my daughter's Birthday. I ordered all the paper things, Hubs will take care of drinks, soda, beer, I will order catered stuff to eat and a birthday cake. I just need to find out when she's off of work , then call the relatives and her friend in the neighborhood. ACKKKKKKK!!!! I am terrified of putting this together not knowing if anyone can have that time free. DD needs to have the day off, And have her hubs tell her that she will be coming by for a special birthday dinner with her parents. Help!!!
