    Mullein

    I have only used it for coughs in two ways. The first time was as a smoke additive. I mixed mullein, rose pedals and catnip with tobacco to decrease the amount of tobacco a smoker use and the next time use less and less tobacco until I was only using herbs or just make a cigarette with pure...

    meat in the freezer

    Sometimes our critters get corn but mostly I think they come around to escape the 4 wheelers and hunters from other properties. I guess that’s a blessing for me. Kinda like money in the bank.

    Are we living our dream?

    I started a job as a nurse 2 nights ago but my back was really stiff. I wore a scrub dress I had only just finished. I was able to do a lot of the computer work. I accidentally left my cheat sheet at the desk. Hopefully someone puts it with my big envelope that’s now waiting for me with my badge...

    Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

    I am afraid few are making it into the house because we eat the ripe ones as an outdoor snack when we are doing chores. My plan….start the seeds.

    Are we living our dream?

    DH successfully bred two does yesterday. He claimed he told them if they didn’t play nice with this buck that he was planning on barbecuing tomorrow (today) and he would get them to help him then and it worked. He got his eyes examined and he told me his glasses will cost over $600. We went to...

    Prepping/stocking supplies

    My family has in-laws that reside in France and it’s starting to get real over there. Fortunately they are rather wealthy but they have begun to use an extra apartment they have as their store room and have been putting food and supplies in there. My sister was breaking down the dollars per euro...

    Are we living our dream?

    Well most of my life I have been fine with storms but I guess Ida affected me because during the storm I was just praying and DD and DH were asking me if I was okay. I just told them it was good to pray. Just last night DD question me about how to make a storm shelter. I told her I guess we’d...

    Are we living our dream?

    The past couple of days have been hard on me because of a new pain in my right shoulder. I have done just about everything available to me, medically, with heat and I lastly took some pot gummies that I now regret telling DS about because apparently I have disappointed him and I didn’t even...

    Are we living our dream?

    I guess I am getting old. I don’t know what I did to my right shoulder but it has been hurting since yesterday afternoon. I have a Lidoderm patch on and I have no intention of removing it. Took aspirin and muscle relaxer and still hurting. I guess I can predict the weather because it’s about to...

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Yeah well years later I got married to my ex and he, his dad and brothers used to hunt rabbits with dogs together and my FIL said that when he was young it used to take more rabbits to feed a family but they are bigger now. I don’t know if they believed me when I told them what had happened to...

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Well I try to be brief and not write a short story. So whatever Daddy went through inspired him to trap the rabbits because he couldn’t always be in Grandpa’s cornfield. He then made a coop for the rabbits and as he trapped them he determined the sex immediately and dispatched the bucks. He kept...

    Finances, Stock Market, Money Market, Mutual Funds, Investments, Savings, etc.

    I do look at a few stocks and make investments as I am able. I also look at the big picture and peoples fears and concerns. Do in 2016 Hillary was definitely gonna win the presidency. I wasn’t voting for her but no one had Trump winning. So I was like….people are gonna be buying guns and ammo...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I honestly try to not get tin cans at all and just can stuff myself. Like I don’t buy my pasta sauce in cans but jars so I can reuse them but if I really want to do something I might make an exception. I do miss having a Martin house.

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Apparently rabbits must be attracted to cornstalks a lot. It’s one of my first memories coming home from Australia and Daddy put the bulleye on his head and went to the cornfield with a shotgun because Grandpa complained about the rabbits. I can tell y’all what happened after that but it’s...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    We invested a lot of time and money in something that just rotted. We did get some use of it a few years though. It’s just I wonder if I couldn’t do something with 15 ounce cans fastened together somehow and have the perfect size holes cut out and sanded and maybe cover it with cool seal for...

    Bresse chicken

    In my younger years I tried to play with the genetics and cross the Cornish with the White Rock and see what I can create from the cross but I didn’t get the fast meat I was hoping for. I don’t care for the greed and the waste of food that the Cornish Cross seems to have but I do like the meat...

    What did you do in your garden today?

    I really think the whole garden is planted but I did buy a sack of wild bird seeds. I would like to plant some milo in a section and see what we can get out of it and a bunch of sunflowers to help keep the bugs away from the vegetables. I gotta confess I got that idea from DH. I can get a whole...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I used to have a birdhouse for Martins. I liked to watch them fly around in the afternoon. It was disappointing when we had to change out the house. The first one was wooden but it rotted out. The next one was sheet metal which we thought we were being smart but I don’t think the birds cared for...
