I have to agree with Wildsky! Stopping for cramps has never been an option for me, and I have found if I just keep moving, they go away!

Thank you so much for the info everybody, but after asking here, scouring the internet and feeling like I have taken on another big project I'm not prepared for, the bees got here! They are Bumble bees! A momma, a few babies and some eggs! Not sure what I am going to do with them yet? The...

Thanks Bee, a trip to Wally world is out of the question. But, just putting them in "something" will be ok until I can build something? Does the queen need anything to crawl on or in? Do I just let them be free until I come up with something else? Can I move them? Am I nuts?

Hi folks! Was wondering if you could answer a few bee questions from some one who knows NOTHING about bees? (please?) Supposedly a friend found a small honey bee nest with the queen. He wants to bring it over here today and find it a new home? I don't have 1 of them cool little white bee...

But BBH, today was a beautiful day for a walk! Hubby had the day off, we looked out the window, discussed all the farm things we should do and decided to spend the day in the truck running errands! I did get a good work out "climbing" in and out of the truck and "running" for shelter from the...

I used to bake my bigger acorn squashes, run them through the squeezo and freeze up family sized portions. I miss my Squeezo!

Our rifle season opens Saturday. Since our farm sits in the middle of hunter heavan, it gets scary! Way to many hunters! I will most likely road hunt the weekend and hunt the property during the week, when it's safer to be out there. 2ndream, I've only met 1 guy that seemed to have a problem...

So... Like... If I tell you I'm still in pain, you gonna do one of your many milers this way and split wood for me? I am back in the saddle!(tractor seat) trying to get ready for the up coming rains!(Tuesday?) The thigh is good, as long as my dogs don't slam into it! (They are big dogs, and I...

Sylvie, so sorry to hear about your neighbor. My sister lost a neighbor to falling a tree for firewood this season too. I used to hunt with a logger. The stories he told me, have left me too scared to even try to fall trees anymore. I will cut them up, but I won't fall them. Another friend...

Hubby says, THANK YOU, Sufficientforme! I guess he loves stuffed peppers? 10 years together and I still learn something new everyday!

Had Lasagna for breakfast yesterday! I would have sausage, hashbrowns and eggs for dinner every night if I could just get Hubby to cook it for me!

Hey BBH! I just had a wonderful idea! Since it was this evil thread that got me off the couch(chair really, I don't have a couch) doing firewood instead of passing the job off to the boy, why don't you jog on over here and help me split wood? It's really good for you! Unless of course a big...

He's making stuffed green peppers. (YUCK) He's got the stuffing cooking.(venison, sausage, rice) Does he need to cook the peppers first if he wants to freeze them? Or can he just stuff them and freeze? He would really appreciate any help you can give him!

Alright, I changed my mind! (I am female, I can do that!) This thread is evil and causes pain! Rather than pull the boy off of firewood duty, I have been fixing the wood shed, with the silly thought, "it's good for me!" 2 days of hammering, ripping apart the trusses that will never be used...

Well, my new top load washer is supposed to be here Thursday! After spending a whole day picking the brains of salesmen (pretty sure we drove the poor Sears guy to drinking), hours reading comments online, and hours trying to convince Hubby that I could find other ways to spend 3400! I was...
