I think that you may be feeling overwhelmed and impatient. You seem to be a young lady just starting out. You don't have to feel like it will always be this way. From the website it appears that you and your boyfriend have everything under control on the ranch. Everything is clean and the...
I used to live where there were lots of salmon berries. They look like large rasberries. I loved them to bits. I made jam and pie with them. You gotta remember that they are mostly water though or your pies get runnier than you may like. You're one lucky girl.
First of all...Welcome.
If I were in your shoes I might consider moving away from the city to another state even. If you can handle Chicago winters you can handle anywhere. Get your truck fixed or even sell it and move to a little town in one of the midwestern state like North Dakota, where...
I was dianosed with hypothyroidism when i was 15. I've been on medication since then. I recently became very depressed and sleepy all the time, i also started getting my menustration a couple weeks late every month. I also started suffering from anxiety attacks and heart paliitations. This is...
I know you don't like electric but i love mine, just place the wood in there and pull the lever, done, on to the next log. It's way quieter than the gas powered ones as well. You can get a good one for around 300 dollars and they last forever.
I seriously think you might have to seperate your expenses. Don't you think that since he is in debt now and sees nothing wrong with it he will continue to buy things on credit as long as they allow him to? He sounds like a nice guy and a lot of fun. Nothing wrong with that. But as an...
People thought I was cruel but I let my kids have a fever all day and just treated it at night so they could sleep. I learned that they bounced back faster by letting the fever take care of whatever virus it was. Just my opinion.
I inherited a 14 month old girl three days ago. I will be keeping her indefinately. My husband wasn't too happy when I said "we gotta go shop for her" yesterday. I told him she needs a crib, a changing table, a jacket, sleepers, onesies etc. I was so excited but could see he wasn't ready to...
You can order books through the book exchange program at the library, just ask the librarian again and she can help. It's a free program and the other public libraries use this to share books between them. There wasn't a charge when I was using the system 15 years ago. Good Luck.
I use my two for picking plums, apples and potatoes, tomatoes whatever won't fall through the little holes. Now they are upside down being used to hold the water feeders in the chicken coop for winter. So many uses, so few crates... :barnie
Shred that debit card and any other household member's cards. My bank charges 23 dollars for each overdraft and six dollars a day after so many days. Banks make their money off you by letting you go over. If you have to go over then write a check for an amount that will get you through til...
I know what you mean Ladychef, I call the kids over to my house now and then to learn something new that is old.
A couple weeks ago I was teaching my 21 year old daughter and my daughter in law primitive canning methods. My savvy daughter was sweating and canning when she asked me "Why do...
My to do list today was...
can salsa that was made yesterday --- not done
feed and water chickens -- done
haul in more wood -- done
wash brand new work clothes I received yesterday -- Not done, too cheap to wash less than a load and I don't want to use my dryer either LOL
Go to work...

These are my homemade briquettes. They work nicely except that they are so compact they take forever to start burning. I had to use newspaper to get them started LOL.
Well, we all have our political opinions. What I'm concerned with is that the media threw this out there for the right and the left to chew on and they fell for it. Fighting over this issue for the past two weeks...it's a shame people don't realize what's going on here.
The media runs this...
TICKS! via Beekissed;
I never bought my kids the trampolines or four wheelers and what happened to you was my reason.
I always told them, I will buy your Trampoline if you give me $17,000 for the broken neck you are gonna get. That's the amount i figured insurance wouldn't pay.
Hope you get...
Well, Bee, I've been away for a while and you are still a shining star. I love to read your posts and progress. I have been having trouble of my own because my mother has been really sick. I am so thankful for people like you.
Don't ever give up what you do. It's people like you who help...
