Lovely to hear so many husbands are helpful around the house! I thought I was the only one with a well-trained husband.
Ah Netty, I'm so happy to know you are not a member of the "disposable society" that immediately chucks something that doesn't work. The bathroom...
Happy Birthday! Hoping you get lots of doggie kisses.
Happy first day of spring! It's currently 39 degrees. Somebody lied!
I'm afraid that, if I used my old jeans on a scarecrow, folks would stop by with donations for me to buy new jeans.
Netty, do you ever take a day off? Reading your posts makes me realize just how lazy I am! Today was cold, so we did inside things. I cleaned the...
Who wouldn't love that face! So glad to hear things are looking up for Skuld, and that more time and a LOT more cuddling will let him hit his...
Our pond develops duck weed for a while, and we take the little wagon behind the lawn tractor and "harvest it". After the first harvest I learned...
Melody, the bottle is buried right up to the bottom, perhaps an inch or 1/2 inch above ground. If the upside down bottle is filled every two days...
KK, I am envious since we can't put our little tomato plants out for another couple of weeks. We deep water by cutting the bottom off a two litre...

Good morning! Spring is coming here! We had a Eurasian Collared Dove sitting in a tree, holding a twig in its beak. Nesting season has arrived!...
Melody, after Netty is canonized, you will be. What a nice neighbor you are! Yes, we have debates here about standard vs. daylight savings time....
Pacnorwest, my "technique" is lots of prayers and lots of band-aids! I've tried the towel wrap, and now have strips of toweling for attaching...
My husband is very good about putting cups, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher (preferably while it is not running). But, when I finish the loading...
Netty, for all you do for the skating club, you should be canonized! Droopy, what is a practical exam? I'm sure Skuld will offer all the comfort...
A city near us recently passed a "backyard chicken ordinance". Homeowners are allowed up to eight hens, no roosters. The hens have to be confined,...
Ah, Daniel, that definitely counts as "garden". When you see what their "leavings" do for the compost pile, the gardens will thank you! We refresh...
Sojerd, no pottery shards, no flint arrowheads here. This land has been farmed and plowed for so long, anything of archeological interest has...
