That's a smaller section of the yard, so it wouldn't be unreasonable to do that much. It is one of the most frequented parts of the yard, so it would be good to definitely get rid of the poison there.Skeltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909517065365135133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-18599964739840671952015-06-10T21:07:43.855-04:002015-06-10T21:07:43.855-04:00Wow, Vicki!

It's so expensive for decent stuff. <br /><br />Congrats on the business! Those side businesses are wonderful. Provide some extra income, a little more stability. Trucker gave me a book when we first got together called Multiple Streams of Income. It talked about having lots of little income streams (the book focused on passive income mainly). That concept stuck with us. While most of our income streams currently are active, we always have multiple sources. That helped a lot during the recession when it took me 3.5 months to land a job.Skeltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909517065365135133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-13843191089366929782015-06-10T21:03:59.654-04:002015-06-10T21:03:59.654-04:00It's amazing how much your body adjusts once y...It's amazing how much your body adjusts once you start eating better. I used to eat a LOT of candy. Now I don't even put any sugar on my apples when I make apple chips as it's super sweet just as is!<br /><br />I usually just use enough bacon fat to cover the bottom of the pan when it melts. I'm a pinch-of-this-dash-of-that type of cook.<br /><br />Ooh nice! Garden fresh tomatoes will go perfect with that basil! :)Skeltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01909517065365135133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-5535985144205114102015-06-10T04:34:00.516-04:002015-06-10T04:34:00.516-04:00Perhaps you could layer newspapers ( many layers a...Perhaps you could layer newspapers ( many layers and keep them damp) over the whole area and kill off everything, then replant grass seed or whatever next spring. But... Maybe the area is too big to do that. Good luck! <br />Keep writing.

My hubby and I went to the next big town last week and happened into the grocery store just as they put a whole bunch of clearance items ( everything from produce to soap, tea , vitamins, refrigerator stuff) 80 % off the reduced price. We bought things like a fave body wash we never buy because of cost for $1.80 ( we took all of them and now have a years worth of body wash), organic tea for $1.12 a box etc. It is such a great feeling for frugal folks like us to get such deals. I have had success of late selling things ( mostly ceramics) online lately. I love this little side business :)Vickinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824809577653587454.post-60468251370488179152015-06-09T10:28:29.821-04:002015-06-09T10:28:29.821-04:00I'm looking forward to these posts :) My life ...I'm looking forward to these posts :) My life is on the upswing for now as I have gotten to where I have been eating so much healthier and now I crave it. I've also been given some new assignments at work which get me out of the office, interacting with others I don't know well and walking a lot.<br /><br />Isn't it funny now $3 lb for ground beef is a bargain? I've started buy ground chuck again to avoid the extra fat runoff.<br /><br />How much bacon fat do you use for the fried corn?<br /><br />Our library also has a summer reading program for adults and PRIZES :) It's provided a catalyst for me to start reading for pleasure again. Although....I chose Gone Girl and am about 1/3 way in it. It's riveting but not really my forte.<br /><br />My gardening is limited to 3 potted herbs for now - basil, tarragon and sage. I'm hoping to add a tomato plant this week - I have a large container and tomato cage ready.Debbie V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04318603077035734786noreply@blogger.com
