Hi folks, I am still relatively new to gardening even though I grew up on a farm and weeding was my main chore as a kid. I should have paid more attention to the planting and preperation process LOL! Anyway I am mostly a grazing gardener and I love a salad garden so I built two small (4x10)...

I am getting a TON of phone calls looking for my husband's ex-wife. They have been divorced for over twenty years and she is now on husband #4. We know her address, but not her phone number. These companies have her address and phone number. She is just ignoring them. She is a scheming...

I met a friend who changed jobs to work at the airport doing check-in and she told me today that she is not having her contract renewed in Oct due to the 3 airlines/operators that have gone bust in the last few weeks aswell as K&S Travel who went bust LAST night in the early hours so its now 4...

I homeschooled for 5 years. I would have more except we were trying to keep peace with the ex-wife. The first 4 years I belonged to a local homeschool group. The 5th year I was President of the group. People who don't know the ins-and-outs of homeschooling are against it. I was told many times...

Her name is Ryan. She was opening up the store that she manages this morning at 5 a.m. and was raped, savagely beaten and robbed. She's now in a coma:( I'm off to the hospital now to support her mom. TIA.

Lets see those strawberries ladies... Can you beat mine?

Is to someday write a book. if i were to go and do it, how does one go about getting published? how does one get off the ground so to speak?

Can you help a friend of mine? She's been a SAHM for about 13 yrs. Her oldest child will turn 16 this summer. Her other children are 14 and 10. However, her DH thinks that they'd be living the Life of Riley if only she went back to work. He and his family frequently put pressure on her...

I just have to confess this. We make our coffee from whole beans using a grinder. I also use the grinder for flax seeds, but it leaves an oily residue on the grinder, so I clean it with rice. BUT - I save that rice flour and put it in the next batch of bread I bake! :toothy:

Today I made my last car payment and now it is officially mine!! I feel great knowing that I can snowball that money into another debt. Then I had to laugh today because I received a "you're preapproved" letter in the mail today for a local car dealership. I went ahead and stuck it in the...

HEY!!!!!! The neighbor behind me has like, 8 guys with all kinds of tractors & gardening stuff, out in her yard making her place cool-er than mine!!!(or anyone else's for that matter!) Stone retaining walls, new brush & plants, FLAGSTONE pathway!!!!! NO FAIR!!!!! Wow! It's looking nice...

and the two were great friends. Dad's Lady was older when he got her and she had a few "character flaws" like she was almost everything that you can think of that makes some people not like poodles. She was high strung, barked a lot, demanding (!), smart, didn't like to be outside much, etc... ...

I got this tip from Flylady a while ago and it's a good one. Post a list of those tasks you can do while the water is coming to a boil in the kitchen or you are watching a toddler bathe in the bathroom, or you are on a cordless phone with a long winded friend or family member. I like my 5...

Households around the world are currently experiencing record levels of personal debt. When the economy is buoyant, interest rates are low, inflation is low and unemployment rates are low, it is easy to be positive about our debts. It is easy to think we will always be able to pay the...

From quilting, crafts and scrapbooking here are Debbie Mumm's archives. http://www.debbiemumm.com/archives/ Enjy!!

And I didn't know it until I talked to my mom. I've already mentioned on this board that I am a Dale Jarrett Fan (and yes I still admit it even though he is having a bad year. ) :smball: Anyway, I was talking to my mom after I left work and was on my way to the store and she asked me if I...

Remember awhile back I was making a quilted tablecloth for my kitchen. Its not quilted yet (just too hot), but here is the finished top.

Well, DH is off to the war. I obviously can't say where is right now but he is gone. Tensions are very high here in Germany. The Germans are very much against this war and are showing it with lots of protests. So we are not to go anywhere off post this weekend. I just really don't feel safe...

Emerson and Thoreau are probably 2 of my favorite people. They had such wisdom and quoted it for all of history to have. What are some of your simple pleasures in life? - seeing a new born baby and their first smile - smelling roses - hearing the birds sing - watching children at play when...

Ok, I have an area in my new house that is sort of like a bench. It is at the top of my stairway and has a ledge and a window above it. I want to make a cushion to put on the bench part so we can sit on it and make it a little area. I was thinking of buying some thick foam and making one big...
