Great quilt, but gotta ask....A TWO STORY OUTHOUSE? ?!??!!!?!?

Just exactly HOW does that one work??

Al, I get the same thing on my phone on occasion and just do the panic restart, too.

As far as the two story pooper, it's a real outhouse, the one Dsqard and I used camping on the John Muir Trail in Yosemite. It's a composting toilet and I believe is only 2 storys because the bottom is poo... either that or the top poops behind the front. No one really checked the front out.

Taxes in IL on a quarter acre lot with a 50 yr old ranch style home on it were almost 2000 dollars. Here we have almost 30 acres with a house, barn and shed and we pay under 800$ on property taxes. Car license in IL are over 100$ per vehicle. Here they are something like 30$. It was a no brainer for us.

Is that $100/vehicle/year? Down to $30/year?

Illinois vehicle license plates cost $101 per year regardless of the age/mileage/value of your vehicle. You pay tax on the purchase price at the time of purchase, but no other vehicle tax on vehicles.

Have a great Sunday peeps!

Hi guys!!!
Ok, on my second cuppa and a lazy Sunday morning so I am finally all caught up, I hope.

Not going to attempt individual comments so just please believe this is a sincere "so very sorry" for all the health issues of my friends and/or their loved ones and so happy to hear things all sound like they are improving (except for Deb, still holding our breath on that one, right?)

Glad your phone problems are solved Al, I didn't think of AdBlocker for my android stuff either, Duh. Loading it onto my new Kindle later. (Did have Malwarebytes on there already).

I see SCG is doing beautiful work, as usual. Got a huge kick out of the double decker outhouse.

I am sorry in advance if anything potentially offensive that may get posted here. My brand new rescue kitty seems to love my laptop and doing surprise popup attacks on my keyboard.

Oh, and forgot. For all of you southern folks enjoying the gift of the white stuff. Welcome to our world!!! Now, don't k ill yourselves.
(Seriously, be safe, we understand you guys aren't used to dealing with snow)

If they wait long enough, it'll melt.

Spent 90 minutes shoveling this morning, here. Because it isn't going to melt. Until June.

Not much here yet, only a few inches but definitely nothing is going to melt, sigh. Actually with the cold we've been having and no sign of it breaking anytime soon, I hope we get a decent snow to insulate the foundation so the floors will warm up and to lay down a nice blanket on the ground otherwise we are going to have a ridiculous frost depth.

Dh has been so sweet lately. He's unpacked a few boxes from when we moved, organized one of the spare rooms, including the closets, he's organized the garage. Dh washed my truck again yesterday. A couple times he's asked me if all my packages have arrived from the things I ordered online, so the kids would get all their Christmas. No, I'm expecting 2 more things, but got a notice that delivery had been delayed by a few days, due to the fires in California making some of the roads impassable at times, but they should be here before Christmas. Twice now, he's washed my truck, and several times he's cleaned the windshield. Such a good man, right? Nope. Not exactly. He's looking to see if I ordered the torque wrench he wanted, as his Christmas gift. He's looked everywhere, under the guise of doing something nice for me, but he can't find his Christmas present.

So happy you found him!



Wish I could steal those from you. Sugar coveted white starch!



I knew you could save me!

Thanks muchly!



Adblock, duh... I will download that too.

I actually run both Malate bytes and Adblock on my laptop... just didn't think to find and get them for my phone. Thanks Ron for including the link. I am technology challenged. And now that I have that link, I can also get the Adblock that Micro suggested.

so yeah! That should fix stuff.

I just bought a new battery for my old phone... I am so happy! The old one had lost its ability to work for more than a few hours.

I have adblock on my laptop. Search for it using the playstore ap on the phone.

I LOVE the outhouse quilt. The theme is great, and the colors are very uplifting.
