  6. Household notebooks and home manuals

  9. Household notebooks and home manuals
    or Control Journal as flylady calls it. Flylady's site has good instructions if you want to follow her method, and so does Organized Home for a somewhat different model. Bonnie McCullough is where I first learnt to build my own manual. Whatever you do, DON"T over organize. When you spend more...
  10. Health and beauty
    I have one, and the price was right (free!), but I'm getting frustrated with it since the tread wanders to one side (despite every attempt to correct this issue) and of course it's very hard to get going and keep it going. I know manual treadmills are generally not recommeneded, but if anyone...
  11. Automotive
    Or does your dh/so do that. I have in bits and pieces. When it comes to changing the time on the radio, looking to see what size tires we need and the different types of oil. Otherwise dh does most of the reading.
  12. Health and beauty
    I have one that I aquired for free. It seems to be in pretty good shape, but I'm not sure what I should do to it regarding maintenance, or things I should be aware of with using it. I do notice that there is no way to walk "flat" on it, so everything is at an incline, which makes it quite...
  13. Needle Arts
    I got one at a garage sale for $2, but I don't know WHAT TO DO WITH IT!!! I've done a lot of internet research, but haven't found any thing on HOW to use an old manual machine. It's a "Studio SK-101" which was actually made by Singer (in about 1962). It's a long steel apparatus with 200...
  14. Leisure & Media Arts
    I've just been reading this book: and it's very good. I saw the authors on Oprah and thought it would be fun to read. I'm reading it now, and speaking as a nurse the medical info in there is right up to date, practical and it's written so clearly that anyone can understand it. Not like some...

  17. Frugal Living
    How many use any manual appliances vs. electric? I use a manual canopener lately, a manual potato masher, and prefer a hand grater to my food processor for simple things like grating cheese.
