I have Fox News on, and Watter’s World just reported on the Hindu nation of Kalbaisa (?) that has signed “sister city” trade agreements with governmental entities nationwide: cities, counties, etc.
But it’s a fictional place. Not a single official had a staff member vet this con man and his entourage.
Oh, and as I walked through my yard, the wild onion heads made clopping noises against my yard clogs as I walked around.
Hubby’s waiting on some parts for the mower. When he cuts the grass, he may need a gas mask to get through the back yard. It’s like driving through tear gas after the first pass or two.
I went to dump my compost bucket as one gesture to keep our fly problem down. I swear, I don’t know where they come from, but lately I’m sure it’s because with all the work going on upstairs, they’re coming in through the front door as Hubby and Handyman go in and out with materials and tools. While out there,… Read more »

I had my 2011 Corolla in the shop today for state inspection and general checkup. I guess it’s because of the small amount of time and short distances I drive now, but they put water in the radiator and that was about it.

TT: Regarding hotbed. I built one some time ago but it has fallen out of use as we have a heated shop, a large greenhouse, and a large garden.

I just came across a series of babysitting horror stories, and dang I had a flashback: Back when BCS and I were teenagers, we babysat for two families who were friends.

Listening to Fr. Ripperger again. He just so casually says “The demons are saying…” Like I’d say “I had lunch with Joe…” Blows my ever-lovin’ mind.

#30 – I’m going with a stacked system since I have a few big buckets. The bottom bucket can hold the liquids that drain off the bucket above.

Morning, mah lil chickadees. I woke up when the battery-powered alarm went off at 9 a.m., sat up in bed to reach the clock and turn off the alarm. Wondered why the house was so cold. Wondered why the bedside radio wouldn’t come on. Wondered why the bedside lamp wouldn’t come on. Got up and found that nothing would come… Read more »
It’s not warming up like I had hoped this morning. I want to get outside a little bit, but I don’t want to go out when it’s too cool. So guess I’ll go run an errand or two.

“What was your reason for your go-around?”
