This helps, too...

My silly little town is full of people whose Hobby is to mow. Neighbor mows this strip that is My property, but was never fenced in, but sits behind His property, simply bc he likes to mow it. A few years ago DD rode my mare and we took a video there. She dropped some manure on it, neighbor...

When it's rainy, then dries out between rainstorms, cut Short. When it's dry, cut long.

Tarps are my new friend. I completely covered all of the 4' wide stone edging between the house and south and turning east sidewalk in 2025 bc I was tired of the weedfest there, and it has really helped me. I used saved and damaged plastic tablecloths and a few old tarps, and you cannot see...

Eldest DD loved the clamps and has them under the Victrola in her LR, so she won't lose them before the next project. SOOOO many calls to make: 1) Crummy car repair shop, that my insurance insSISted I give a 2nd chance for my 2012 White Avalon to "make it right," even though those words were...

As the saying goes, "just do it." Easiest way is to tie together 3 wood pallets, making the 4th one a gate. Simply fill it. When it's full, empty it out next to the pallets and refill. End of season you can dig trenches in your beds and bury your compost. A corner of your property is a good...

IF you were to watch me around the house YOU would diagnose ME as ADHD. I start a job, on the way to do something else I get distracted by another job, then a rest, then I stop and start a few more. Really, so MANY of us are like that and the NORM. It is the NON ADHD that are unusual. Yes...

Mowed the other 4 acres, and burned weeds. DD's and I worked 5 hours...

I had NO IDEA that these invasive trees sprout hellish thorns! On a recent Mid American Gardener, one guest brought pictures of his property where somebody had planted them. THE ONLY REASON that they had spread Further was bc his property bordered on a farm field and that gets tilled every...

Your Muscles WILL come back. :hugs

I DID collect kindling for a fire on out hike. I Guess we could have brought the wood inside of the cabin to dry it out...but that might bring in something like termites. Perhaps we could have brought a black tarp and covered them day we got there.

Yesterday my 2 DD's totally blessed me! We used the tractor and my God mower to mow the 3 acre north pasture, And the 1/2 acre south pasture and youngest DD used my push mower to get the trim...EVERYWHERE!! This was our plan, although we all didn't have the energy to do Everything on the plan...

Harbor Freight has cheaper products BUT I never did care for those long orange clampy...thingy's.. They always looked a little bit flimsy. THESE clamps are heavy and metal. We will probably go back and get more of them. Generally, though, 4 clamps is usually enough for any glueing job. UNLESS...
