My niece watched Signing Times when I visited her a year ago for Christmas. I remember the sign language. Do you remember Dac?

Dac just called me and wanted me to share this with everyone: Also, they won't be able to fix the water line until they get the gas company out there to mark the gas line, because the gas line crosses the water line near the leak.

Today we set up growlights in the basement. I hope the bulbs we got from Menards work well. They are Sullivan 40" florescent lights, that are designed to "stimulate" plants. The label says they are aquarium lights and they aren't putting out a lot of light. We set up a timer and have the...

That would explain why my tomatoes had such a hard time getting going last year. I'm in Zone 4, so it was still pretty cold out when I put out my plants last year. I got tired of waiting for June and put stuff out mid-May, which still has a chance of frost. I'm thinking about getting some...

Ok. Maybe I don't want to be by the property after all. I keep forgetting about stuff like mowing, and adding gravel to the driveway, going to the neighbors for manure, my really bad allergies. I don't forget about the heat and humidity in the summer, which is why I want to stay in WI.

And the water main is at the start of the driveway, right? That's a lot of digging.

Some seedlings sprouted! I have a salad greens mix and heirloom tomatoes so far. It looks like I'll be setting up grow lights this weekend. My basement is about 50 degrees. Will that be too cold to put the plants? Will the heat from the laps compensate? I can leave them upstairs if I need...

Dac, what's the latest on the water leak?

You need to move the property closer to me so I can enjoy it more than once a year. It's been almost two years now since I've been down there. I think chickens would be cool, but I recognize that it's way to much work, and I wonder how they'd stay warm enough through the winter.

I don't know. I forgot to ask her about it after the first day back. I'll try and remember next time I see her. I did talk to my boss about the co-op we went too. I think he was disappointed that I didn't like it more. I tried to explain that we were on the search for the great Wisconsin...

I finished reading it and didn't go looking for it again yet. I'm reading fantasy fiction for my bus reading right now. Plus, a Burpees Seed catalog and a few magazines from my office manager called "Mary Janes Garden" and no, its not about THAT mary jane.

I need to get faster at this. I was laying in bed with a headache when Lulu (the cat) brought the mouse up. My headache started feeling better and I sat up and started watching, very glad I was in bed, instead of near the floor. My husband decided to get the picture. At one point, the mouse...

You have my Omnivore's Dilemma? That's ok. I'm planning on seeing you guys in a few months anyway. I just saw a recommendation for a book on year round harvesting that I'm going to have to check out.

She needs to learn how to kill them. That's the second mouse (that I know of) that she's caught, and chased down the ducts. Maybe we feed her too well. But when she runs out of food, she whines like a baby in the middle of the night. This is great training for motherhood, except I make my...

I'm here now. I just multitasked my way into MSN celebrity gossip. I've been browsing Sufficientself and TheEasyGarden quite a bit today. And my cat has been humoring me tonight as well. She caught a mouse and chased it around the computer room until it found an air duct to escape down.

To start with, I'm Dacjohns's oldest daughter. I felt like I was spying on him by reading his journal and thought it would only be fair to sign up and start one myself. And, I'm definitely his daughter. We become more and more alike the older I get. (Although, I will add that I'm not as...
