    Sufficient Self Journal Section

    Best left "to home"? Because we're mostly women? That's either incredibly unclear or incredibly obnoxious.

    names = occupations

    Uh oh, my last name is Old English for Beechwood, I hope I'm not destined to sit rooted to one spot while slowly becoming ever-larger.

    Dacjohns--Changes

    I am kinda jealous, that sounds fun. :D I haven't been to anything Renaissance Fair-ish in years, but I always had a great time.

    Gulf Shores Alabama now has oil from BP's spill

    Want to really get mad? I've called and called about volunteering. I have a bio degree and have done quite a bit of wildlife rehab. I'm pretty qualified to help. Even if none of my skills are applicable, they still need people to pick up stuff and pre-clean beaches before the skilled cleanup...

    Need ideas for an avocado spread.

    I like the way you guys think! Cream cheese might be just the thing to thicken it up to spreadableness.

    Tell me about your favorite shoes

    I LOVE my Vibram Five Fingers. Great for running/walking, hiking, watersports, anything! I have very weak ankles, and I haven't had a fall/twist since I've started wearing these and strengthened my ankles/feet/calves. Gotta work up to them to give your muscles time to adjust, but they're great...

    Need ideas for an avocado spread.

    DH and I love avocado, especially on sammiches! However, I don't love the difficulty of eating it on a sandwich. It flops, it slides around, it falls out the butt of the sandwich, you get the idea. What I'd like to do is make a nice batch of some kind of avocado spread that I could keep in a...

    Worst cramps ever...help!

    I do a strong tea of black cohosh and raspberry leaf for cramps, it makes me feel like the "pitch" of the cramps changes to something more comfortable, if that makes any sense. And I hope this isn't too over the line, but a nice orgasm is one of the best cramp-relievers out there. :hide

    Need some herbal medicines and healing foods for back problems

    One of my grandmoms is having horrendous back issues. She's seeing specialists and everything, but I want to make her some supplemental things that might help her healing. She has spinal stenosis, curvature and a slipped disc. It's pretty bad, she's had to get epidurals a couple times. She...

    Today is the last day of school here

    Sheesh, whatever happened to a nice lunch out with the family? Limos! Paaaah. Being well off is no crime, but I find ostentatious displays of wealth to be very tacky.

    How cool are these? I saw this in a thread on some other site the other day, the book is called Creepy Cute Crochet. I totally want a knitted Cthulhu! :gig http://www.flickr.com/groups/creepy_cute_crochet/

    I just taught myself to knit today!

    Glad you are enjoying. :D There should be a set of double-pointed sock needles in there. Beware, the socks were the thing that prompted me to get rid of everything. The only thing I could ever do was simple single-stitch crochet, scarves only. :P And sorry again about the condition of the...

    Geodesic ( Dome ) homes and greenhouses

    I live in one! Energy-wise, it's pretty good. The doors on this one don't seal all that well, so there is some loss there, but overall our power bills are much lower than they were when I lived in a regular house. There are pics of the house on my blog profile. http://occamstazer.blogspot.com

    Natural Remedies To Battle Lymes Disease

    I second guineas for tick control, I only have one and she does a great job! The ticks here were intense before we got her, too. As for remedies, I wouldn't mess around with Lyme. I'm all for natural solutions, but spirochetes are bad business and natural remedies aren't going to kill them...
