Don't have any photos of the belt that my middle DD bought me for Christmas, BUT, here is one that is affordable. When I take my phone outside I want to protect it. It's an expensive investment! THIS one isn't too expensive. There is also another one, too at WalMart. I carry other tools with...

The two girls (Teagan--mint green collar, Sasha--red collar,) 10 weeks old, GSD, go from running, chewing, playing (wolfing), to eating, outside and LOTS of water and LOTS of sleep.

Came over to share aNOTHER interesting photo--Sunflower with bees. While mowing and weeding the wildflower bed I noticed bees on several of my sunflowers. They were swaying in the breeze, but I saw this one flower relatively still. It looks like two different types of bees?

Saw a bunch of bees on my sunflowers in the wildflower patch next the house today.

SIL will NOT get a puppy. She always goes for an older dog that needs a home. That's Great, but puppies, young animals, are a blank slate, without baggage (usually.) Training goes faster and sticks longer. People are asking why DD's (the ones helping me) don't get a dog. They don't Need a dog...

Sasha (red collar,) and Tegan (mint green collar. Tegan is almost house trained. Sasha started to drop her poo's everywhere. I took her outside this morning right before an accident, and sat in an outside chair with her for 45 minutes. Nothing. So, Tegan got to play in the house, and Sasha...

I dunno--I think only citrus trees are sensitive to the cold. Most others thrive in climates with a winter, just not MY winter. Also, have you priced fruit trees online?!?!? $15/sapling is a steal. That is Box store clearance price. I bought my Magnolia Jane, now 14 ft tall and 16 in wide at...

FINALLY a squall line and some pouring down rain at dinnertime last night. Still soaking wet when I took puppies out this morning. Still, More is needed...

$15/fruit tree is very reasonable. Did I misunderstand?

I was storing all of my 2025 garlic harvest in paper lunch bags on top of the fridge. Unfortunately, I had 4 German Red Garlic bulbs dry out on me. :hit This weekend I plan to clear out and replant ALL of my garlic for 2026. I may not process or consume any Red Garlic. I will post pictures...

I had a peach tree on the property, that just suddenly kicked the bucket. Produced a lot of fruit. Then, I bought a peach tree at a box store. The tree is 15 ft tall, Lovely shade tree, practically NO fruit. I also bought a Red Haven Peach from them. OUR biggest problem here is late Spring...

@akroberts aren't you like zone 7? I ask bc a local expert said that our area, 5b/6a is too cold to keep most fruit trees going, but I think you could do it. If you want to be sure to get good fruiting trees, I suggest buying from Stark Bros, bareroot. Yeah, it's good to buy local, but the...

That IS both yucky and So OBVIOUSLY environmentally WRONG!! Gee whiz--can't somebody take the waste and compost it?!?!? Thanks for the tip on Small Island Seed & Cicada. :hugs Regarding cost--I have bought from from High Mowing before where the seeds were $1/seed.

Taking puppies on a walk on the south yard I checked in my tomato plants. I looks like we might get a small harvest next week. Tomorrow I am 8 weeks out on my surgery, told that the bones on my left leg are set at this point, so I will be talking to my PT tomorrow about What outside work I...

The other news is that we are getting: 1) a new Fridge 2) a new Washer 3) a new Dishwasher 1) Glad it was a Holiday weekend and that we got 30% off!! :th Last Thursday morning I woke up to water underneath the ice dispenser. I checked and the extra ice cube trays were mushy. By Saturday I...

I Know "Tegan" is a popular girl's name now, but it Is a sweet name--other DD and I didn't really care to get into their argument. I had purchased collars and leashes, but those collars are currently too big, so we stopped on the drive home to get 2 smaller collars. I imagine by October they...

DD's spent Saturday and Sunday puppy proofing the house. Our house is old and we can shut doors since we don't have an open concept layout, and that is best way to keep them away from slippers which they are both Very interested in chewing on. Middle DD is wanting to get a puppy before her 14yo...

Puppies, UPDATE. Home and settling in. Eldest DD offered to drive us 2 1/2 hrs NW to outside of a little town I didn't know existed, but it's Bigger than where I live to retrieve puppies. There IS NO "Puppy Door Dash." :lol: "Sasha" is My puppy, "Tegan" is DH's puppy. DH and Eldest DD fought...

Grapes make a really good fence, btw.

Fod in the morning. NO.RAIN.EVER!! It has been weeks since we saw it--I think rainfall is now a myth.
