When I received my Mortgage Lifter and Burpee Giant tomato seeds a few days ago, I set them a side some where and now I can't find them. I did an all out search two days in a row and gave up with a head ache. I have no idea where they flew off too?
What did you do in the garden today?

FLEW off might be a clue. If you left them outside, they might be pre processed dispersed in the yard compost by nowWhen I received my Mortgage Lifter and Burpee Giant tomato seeds a few days ago, I set them a side some where and now I can't find them.

Daddy It's Cold Outside !
Let us In !!
Let us In !!
Ya, I moved my still fuzzy baby ducks outside with a heat lamp to ease the transition and you'll almost never see them under it. Once in a while if they get to soaked.
So glad you're getting some relief already... hope it grows as you heal and the healings fast.
This video led to 4 hours of my family watching this guy on our big screen TV...Alpacas get to go out today after lunch. I'm sure they'll be thrilled.
My holiday gift to you all is the link to watch this guy work all of his wonders in CHOCOLATE! He has a lot of videos, but since we garden, start with the snail
Until DH realized that a pipe burst in the outside wall behind the dryer. Flooded the laundry room, spare bedroom (where my in-laws are sleeping) and the entryway from the garage.
No plumbers available for weeks because of all the burst pipes in the area.... My DH and FIL went to Lowe's to pick up supplies to cap it until a plumber can come out. Apparently they bought the wrong size... 
Still trying to get it fixed... And now every towel in the house needs washed too....
anyone needs a 'video' of rudolph crossing the sky with bells ringing to show the grands/kids that you just saw santa- DM me for the file we made.

It's a little late now but for ANYONE who is in sub freezing weather, especially those who generally in climates where this kind of weather does not usually happen. If you have pipes on the outside walls of the house, ie your kitchen you look out the window above the sink and you see the yard. Thats a good chance that water pipe is running along that OUTSIDE wall somewhere for some feet. It's a toss up whether they insulated it good or not. Given it's hidden behind a wall and you can not see it, you can guess how good of a job they did.
With that, leave the faucets run overnight JUST A SMALL TRICKLE. You don't need gallons of water gurgling down the drain, but just a trickle. That movement in many instances is just enough to keep the pipes from freezing solid and bursting. Ive done that many years since I blew a pipe in the wall and have not had a problem since.

Edit I almost forgot. If it's a kitchen sink or something, open the drawers under the sink so that the heat from the house can get up under there where the pipes are and help keep them warmer. If you are in a BAD situation get yourself a small space heater and place it on LOW heat, you don't need a ton of watts and aim it up in there. Make sure it's sitting where there is not flammables around.

ANOTHER helpful hint.
It's COLD, not to mention DRY, the humidity in the house is horrible low, you are probably having problems with sinus' and all kinds of super dry air issues. I know I do.
here's another little hack.
The hose on the back of your dryer, remove it from the wall, plug that wall hole up with a towel or something to keep the cold out. NOW, pull a pair of pantyhose over that hose. Use a pair that the lil lady tossed because there's a run in them or something that she no longer wants them. Pull the P hose over the hose, this is fine enough mesh to catch most if not all of the dust / lint etc. Aim that hose INTO THE HOUSE. Now when you do laundry,all that Heat that YOU PAID FOR !! Instead of pumping it away on the other side of the wall, put it IN THE HOUSE where it can do some good, plus you get the humidity as well from the clothes drying to help breathe a bit easier too. Just an off the cuff guess. Each load of laundry heat you use saves you probably 75 cents to a dollar in heating costs.

P.S. if you find a funky smell in the house, get a clean pair of hose

This is the reason when I built my last 2 houses I did not put pipes in any wall. Learned my lesson years ago. I had a house built and then plumbed by a plumber. Within 10 years 2 leaks on inside wall. A real pain.This video led to 4 hours of my family watching this guy on our big screen TV...

I got so mad, I bought another packet of the Burpee Giant Steakhouse Hybrid 25........FLEW off might be a clue. If you left them outside, they might be pre processed dispersed in the yard compost by now
