As I am all for recycling, this recipe is not so distasteful in dealing with the remains of the poor elephant! I will go along with the recipe but why do we have to be "warm on a bed of cold rice" to serve it? : .....just one of those days...Avias:
Within reason..all things should be this...her resignation makes sense because she was head of an organization representing black people and when elected, the truth of her racial background was not known. She should still be free in her personal life to continue on with her chosen identity...Avias
GJ...Catfoot speaks the truth...why disable the internal mouse? I use my external without the internal being disabled...my computer is Toshiba laptop..Windows 7....Avias
Hey all...glad you stopped to read and have a laugh! For some I do believe this scenario could be the answer.....become a product of Cyber Living! Lol..
Hi Nonsmoker...yeah, smart man indeed! By time she would want to sell husband on Ebay, would need to add, no return policy applies, right?
Hi Rob..... If it was Divorce Yard Sale, wonder if she had people asking "How much are your divorces"? lol...you know she had to hear that! Maybe the chair would have been cheaper without the husband...if you really wanted it! Lol
Thanks for the advice ....will consider...yet with tight places in yard to maintain and not wanting to dismount and use a pushmower or weedeater for those...not sure. Your tractor is obviously what you are missing with all the area you are doing! Hoping it can all stay short for awhile...we can do without the rain that would make it grow.... pretty wet around here at least. Let you know what I come up with.....Avias
Agree....living fully means deciding to take risks and learn lessons! Can not imagine life without this. Fear holds us back and overcoming it, enables us to have the experiences where we grow! ...Avias
Hi Socrates...I am still unsure how I feel about this but fundamentally I agree with Law of Conservation of Energy...can not disagree on that one..lol...so at this time, reincarnation is becoming more and more interesting...currently reading about it. I enjoy hearing of the experiences/comments here about contact with those who have passed on...to me that is entirely probable. ....Avias
Ken..You are gettin there...pics show improvement! No, lol...I do not have over 10 acres ...actually had 3 and sold off some of it....now just 1.5+ with large open "pasture" area...the 42" cut mower was just right for me to get in around the shrubs,trees,etc in my main yard....so appreciate your thoughts about tractors/brush hogs....just would be oversize for what I really do here. I will be looking at the John Deere mowers probably and checking with Consumer Reports on performance of others...want one that will last at least another 13 yrs!...Avias
Mentioning thistles...the plant hated by all farmers around here and probably everywhere but not by those beautiful little goldfinches who can empty out a thistle seed feeder in no time! Most bird enthusiasts refrain from offering the thistle seeds knowing they are contributing to the spread of this plant but some still do feed the seeds...just enjoying the birds...living for the moment! I can totally appreciate what you are facing there with the tall grass...have seen commercials for the DR and it seemed to be one of the machines that made sense in taking care of taller grass/some brush. At the moment I am anticipating what kind of mower to get for my acreage and larger pasture area since the 42" cut mower I have had for 13 yrs has decided to become a part of the past history for mowing...bad timing of course, very seldom see anything with mowing that is good timing...so having to hire it done is not what I plan as permanent solution and have the definite intuition that this mower is not worth the expense of returning it to working condition...and for how long!Just hate going shopping for mower in prime mowing season! Such is life...
Ken...Got mulberries?? Here they are trying to take over my acreage with help from the birds that freely plant them! Can see from your pictures that you are fighting the good fight against rampant vegetation....never fails to impress me how quickly things return to the wild state....nature has its own idea of where, what and how things should look and grow....then we come along with our ideas of shorter grassy yards and manicured vistas....lol! Take care with your maintenance there and hoping the health issues are going away......Avias
With most problems in this world...it is not enough to talk about them......seems like it is only when it begins to affect us personally, that we get serious about solutions! This "plastic pollution" is another example of disregard for the planet, our only home. All those who do not see it this way, our ONLY HOME at this time, will sadly find out what it is like to reap the rewards of not caring for this home! Thankfully, these video clips indicate planning and seeking solutions to deal with the "plastic pollution"...the handwriting is on the wall ..the time to get serious couldn't be any plainer..It IS NOW!... ...Avias
Hi CI....Sounds like a great place to explore but how is the climate there? And when does the monsoon season start? I would not want to deal with the rainy season or the time when the temps soar!
