    Default Snowed in all day in Nebraska!

    Hi everyone,

    I actually got the day off from work today becasue of a snowstorm! Meaning a 4-day weekend. Nice. I can get lots of seeds started under my very effective and frugal flourescent lights contraptions. Have you seen those growing kit rip-offs?

    I have known about fraugal village as a great resource for the simple lifestyle for about a year. Today I actually had the time to log on to this part of the site. I hope to devote some time to learning and sharing in the forums over the next few months, especially in the areas of gardening and frugal living.

    Thanks!

    Welcome from one Nebraskan to another. I am unfortunately sitting at work right now...just watching to snow come down. Unfortunately, the bank didn't deem the weather bad enough to close even the back offices (where I work). Good luck with your seedlings.
