I really enjoyed reading the post,liz stevens posted about the hoop greenhouses.Ours is still a work in progress but it does work right now for starting early seeds for the veg garden and flowers for the yard.This is the third year we have used it.We made the mistake of using plastic from the...

Thanks,Thats kinda what I figured but I wasn't sure.And you really have to watch what you say talking to insurance folks.One told me I could only have so many chickens and I couldn't sell any.Don't know why they would concern them selves with what I do with my birds.:idunno

We have a 8x45 foot MH that we have added 8x45 to the front and 12x45 to the back.It is now 28x45.We had to remove walls and some areas of the frame and it is not able to be moved as a MH.I don't really know how to describe it the insurance companies.It has pretty much been totally redone and...

Great tips here.We always feed our dogs deer scraps.I don't feed entrails or hides(I try to tan or raw-hide as many as I can).We do sometimes feed the heads but we don't have CWD here at this time.I could never afford to pay to have them processed,its about $80 here,too,plus extra for special...

Our 20 year old son wants to go to college.And he thinks we-I should sign with him for it.I can't seem to be able to fit that in the budget.He's way smart and could be working his way up.I can't afford $60,000 to wait and see "if" .We all know work here.He knows that.Extras cost extra.What do I...

I've known this was coming for over 15 years.We bought this piece of property 15 years ago.We had known the owners on 3 sides forever,we knew them because our parents knew them.The piece we got has stated on the deed the fence on one side is the line.It was flagged by the survey.It also has iron...

I had one removed from my left hand about 26 years ago.I was told it could come back but it never has.I was working in a sewing factory at the time and I think that is what caused it.It was very painful and I couldn't work because of it. The only home remedy I know is the book thing.I wouldn't...

I don't really know of anything that might help but I wanted to let you know you're not alone trying to not lose weight and trying to gain.I,ve always had issues gaining,too.I was 22 when I got pregnant with my first son and I weighted 95 lbs,gained up to 124lbs when he was born and was back at...

Thanks,everyone,for the tips and help.My finger feels lots better.Its at least 3-4 different colors,still swollen and hurts when I forget and let it get bumped.You wouldn't think a little pinky finger could hurt so much or that your hand uses it as much as it does.:rolleyes:I did use a wet...

Ok,I have broke my pinky finger this time and its about to kill me,lol.I have broken fingers before so I know what it feels like.I went to the ER the first time about 20 years ago and got a x-ray,a splint and a $700 bill.I remember it hurt alot but they gave me pain pills then and these days I...

It could be any type of bug bite,but I'm wondering if he could be getting a skin infection.I've had that twice from bug bites,one I know was a tick and the other I don't know what bit me.But the way you desribed it sounds very similar to what I had.I got a large red area with itching that kept...

Congrats on getting some pigs.We got 2 4 month old gilts for $40 each about 5 weeks ago.They are landracer/hampshire cross.We are feeding them stuff from the garden plus corn plus any scraps we have.They are in a cattle panel pen about 16'x20' behind the barn.They have a old camper shell for a...

Thanks any and all that have been keeping up with this.It is alot of fun but work to boot.LOL We got around 1200 foot of red oak and ash tongue and grooved.It is beautiful.I can't wait to get it put down.I didn't know the ash was so hard and its clear,too. We had planted 2 peach trees and 2...

We're within the 15 mile range from our closest.I don't plan on leaving.We will stay and use what we have.They have been showing on the local news how safe ours is.They get to keep it safe and I'll keep me and mine safe.I have a underground house with a inside drilled well.I need to know how...

We've been so busy.Nice weather has its disadvantages.Yard work galore plus work in the greenhouse and just regalur-go-to- work work.I have squash,peppers,carrots and lettuce coming up.(not counting flowers)I planted a few potatoes and a small spot of sweet corn.I'm gonna have the first mess of...

Thanks,all.I feel better.I fixed up a syringe of salt water/saline and shot it up my nose.One side flushed though and I keep on until the other side did.I didn't drown.:rolleyes: I took a hot shower,too.I need to work on my diet/food intake.I do think it is lacking.I eat good but I don't eat...

I don't have any fever.But my head hurts,my eyes hurt,my face hurts and I've got a hard cough.I cough so hard I feel like my head is going to pop.My throat is not sore but feels like I shoved a thistle bush down it.It feels kinda swollen or maybe thick?I feel like I should be coughing up stuff...

That is so cool.I've always loved a little cozy place.I would have to have indoor running water.It could be heated on that excellent cook stove.A chamber pot is not going to cut it either.:rolleyes:A modern toliet will work on gravity flow,would have to add that.We're building a 30 x 60 log home...
