Thats when I am most likely to use the dryer.....as a heater. Double dip!!!

I took every precaution even from the very beginning, by using stoneware as a platform. Today I went a step further and bought a metal plant stand, which holds the planters about 18 inches above the floor with the platter next, and (this part is all my own idea) terra-cotta spacers positioned...

I'm late coming on but found a few interesting pointers since catching up and just wanted to jump in. Well, I bought a potbelly about 7 years back to replace the boxwood because I felt it might be nice to go from 76,000 BTU's to 200,000. Now Bee mentioned that for the investment, her drum/kit...

A while back I figured a few ways to cut some of my expenses, but it required some up front expenses. It was hot over the summer and I decided to cover all the windows. The cheapest route I could go was to buy some extension rods and make my own curtains, out of the darkest green sheets I had...

I have had a day and I am tired. I woke up earlier than my 2 little ones and niece and had dressed and drunk 2 cups of coffee and headed outside, before any of them were up, but, like I always say, its dangerous for me to go out because I see things and chances are, I will get started fixing...

I would be so tempted to get a hound. My 8 year old wants one and I could use some coon control, which I think would help me on my poultry projects, as well as my orchard, but I think I will wait until at least one of my dogs dies before getting another.

Hello and welcome. I also have silkies of those color varieties, but my buff rooster is probably about to have an accident. I really only wanted them for help with incubation anyways.

Oh wow!!! Sorry. I might have steered you wrong. I just noticed you aren't from the states. I have no idea if y'all even have that med and if it comes in the same container. But it won't hurt to ask. I lived in Lakes Entrance, when I was very small.

Sometimes I have clumping problems as well. I had some uneven, breaks, all of a sudden when slicing one of my last batches and eventually I decided to melt down all the small pieces and pour into some old standby molds I have. My standbys are Restasis Eye Drop containers, I pinched from work...

I agree. I cry sometimes, but DH was never really a friend of mine, although I am his. He needs me more than I need him. He got fired today. I suppose I will try to help him get declared disabled. He isn't likely to find a job very easy with his heart. I get a little nervous where he is...

My.....you have been busy!!! I only read the last page, but it looks like I will need to back track with you.....maybe tonight. I have a feeling that reading will be more enjoyable than reading Facebook shares.

So glad I am back here because Facebook can get me crazy. I mainly goof off online when I drink my coffee in the morning. Well, at least this place helps me organize my thought processes for farming. I am determined to never accept another man friend, unless I already know him...

I don't know where to start. I tried keeping up with SS but when I left for FL, somehow I couldn't log in.....I figured the site knew I wasn't home or the computer knew I wasn't home and wanted to make sure it was really me, and I didn't have a password I could possibly remember and with all...

Kinda anxious. About to have to kiss DD12 goodbye for a few days and then meet up with her in Orlando a little later on. I bought a manual clothes washer to do our small clothes and then went out and found a few pieces of light clothing so I can wash my own clothes in the hotel. Well, I...

Okay....just out of curiosity, I was wondering how all my recent changes with clothes drying and outdoor cooking and Wonder Bag cooking were saving me, so I began looking for my utility bills. I found my gas bill from July 2013 and my usage was 8. Whatever that means. And my current bill...

Yeah, I noticed. Was hoping her settings were fixed so that she'd get notifications when someone responded to one of her threads though. Hope the best.

I have the cornbread in right now. I am leaving it in longer than I would a gas oven, because of the low temp, but it is on slow cooker temp right now. Maybe hotter because its been a while and the sun is shining right on it. It might be ideal. The turkey necks were good and I plan on...

Oh.....if and when I go under, it will not so much be me sinking a packaging container so much as burying it above ground. I am well acquainted with wet lands. I can write a book on surviving in a swamp......hey, now there is an idea!!!

I'm out of bread. I think I will mix some dough and se how it works in a solar oven. Or maybe I can do that tomorrow and today just make corn bread. Yeah..... But I will not buy my bread from the store for sure.

I used to wrap 2X4 wire under the brooder, after I threw the chicks loose with the flock, so they can get in, but the adults couldn't and I'd put a feeder in with crumbles so they'd have access to what they needed, without being harassed by the big ones. Its not just the power I am saving with...
