Twisted fingers, permanently bent knuckles, and knots that are red or white and burn and itch and hurt. Ibuprofen works for a while, but I...
Lamp, phone charger, and various other electrical type cords are not safe! A bit of pepper sauce will cure that though. As all may see, the dogs...
If I did this correctly (many would have doubts) below you'll find Penny, the Jack Russell Terrorist, and Tink, the York-Tzu or Shi-Shire. This...
Pretty dadgum warm here today. 87F and humidity about the same. Got home from work and watered the plants I'm hardening off. I need to get some...
The missus just couldn't do without a snuggle buddy, and Penny is much too high energy for that. I found her a Yorkshire Terrier/Shi-Tzu mix....

A generous amount of a high nitrogen fertilizer, say, 49-0-0. Cover with at least an inch of soil. The N in the fert and the Carbon from the...
