I have heard sprinkling Borax (like the stuff for laundry) on the carpets at bedtime, then vacuuming it up in the morning helps. For the cat, I have had better luck with the flea prevention stuff from the vet. (The kind you put behind their neck) we never had success with the off brands.

There is a place to drain leftover water from, along with a dirt cup at the bottom of our machine. If I start getting an odor, it helps to drain it. I have, when I noticed a problem, taken a little Clorox cleanup on a rag and wipe the large gasket in the door with it. I don't use much cleaner, and I don't do it often, as I don't want the gasket to dry out. But it help kill any mold.

Not sure when they first opened but there was Anne's and the Peacock, just outside of town. Not that I was old enough to patronize them....

I knew about quite a few of the items, but a few at the end made me :HM:

It seemed to be a bad year for veggies, but good for fruit. OUr neighbor's apple tree is still full! Our apples and pears were a bit smaller than usual, but were plentiful.

I saw that yesterday. Very interesting!

Use a canning jar with a little bit of vinegar in it. Make a paper cone with a tiny opening in the bottom, wide enough at ttop to seal the jar. Make sure the bottom of the cone doesn't touch the vinegar. Tape it securely in the jar. The flies will enter the cone and not be able to get back thru the little hole. This always works for me. There are several variations of it out there.
* Didn't realize this thread was so old, but it's that time of year again!

Besides the robins making their appearance, my daffodils and tulips have poked thru the earth. Not very far, but enough to give me hope!

We got a bunch of seeds in the mail todAY. I think we are going to make a planting calendar soon. Can't wait to start the seeds!

I started my tomatoes (cherry) around the first of March last year and they did really well. I am going to do it again this year. We live at the lake so everything in pots and they have to be watered every day, but I love fresh tomatoes! Pumpkins do not do well on a deck, plants grow just fine, the fruit itself not so good.
One year my son, who was about 5 at the time, took 4 pumpkin seeds and plucked them in the ground out in the field. Those were the nicest pumpkins we ever had, even when we tried doing it the "right" way. Someday I'd like to have a respectable patch going.

My MIL has a greenhouse full of blooming geraniums. I Just might park a chair in there and sit a few hours, to cheer myself up! Lol
-
I am also planning on landscaping a large area in the front of the house. I think I'll start mapping it out a bit. It's a mostly shady area, though it does get some sun.
-
The seed catalogs have starting coming, which brings with it garden planning. We are hoping to expand our garden this year. My son is hoping for a greenhouse this summer, so we can start things earlier. Can't wait for the smell of the dirt in the spring!!

This looks to be a little different than in the first link, but if it's the same, sorry for the duplicate post. (I didn't get to look at everything, but these appear to be hand drawn.)

The new Magic Erasers work great on showers and tubs. Some how they really do take out old stains. You'll need to wipe with a damp regular sponge or rag to get the shine, but it cuts thru soap scum very well.

I am having trouble finding the Fels Naptha bars lately. I used to get mine at Bi Lo. ): Any suggestions??

I have heard cat hair might work.

We were just talking this morning about how my Gram used to say "deef" instead of "deff" for deaf.

I saw a carpenter bee hovering twice today, in two different places. my MIL has had a problem with them in the past.

That might help it from getting too heavy, also.

Now that the time change has happened and the weather is fair, I have my husband back, lol. Of course, now he is in the garage til sundown, ha ha

I need to do something soon for my husband. He's starting to bring me down too! I joke with him about it, but I do think I will stop and look for some vit D or something for him.
Rest In Peace Shmoopie11 <3

I opened this thinking it was some kind of joke. If only. She will be missed. Prayers for her family.
