so how much does it cost to actually own a horse?
Comments (28)Well, if I lived where some of you do, I guess I'd have to give up the horse :0( I have always had a horse, since I was a kid. Nowdays I don't ride much, but just need to see her out there every day for peace of mind. My horse is an easy keeper. I know this may rile some of you that really work at your horse habit, but mine is a pasture ornament. No grain in summer, she's hog fat (part percheron). Small amount of grain, 1/2 bale of hay daily in the winter. So far only had vet bills for shots and 1 time had to have stitches. I have had this horse for 9 years. We trim her feet when they need it, but she has excellent hooves, never a problem even if I can't get the farrier out for a while. $25 when he does come. I did breed her 2 years ago, $200, had an absolutly gorgeous colt with NO problems. No stall cleaning, she stays out all year, with a shed in the pasture for when she chooses to use it. I don't really know how you'd tell to buy one, but a horse like this is an easy keeper in almost every way. She's not even hard on my poor old 100 year old fences. Guess I'll keep her :0)...See MoreWhy time moves so fast as you get old.
Comments (21)Actually they use cryosurgery, freezing things they want to remove, where it is not necessary to evaluate the lesion under the microscope. If microscopic evaluation is necessary, scalpel is still the old and proven cutting instrument. Laser destroys the margins. When something is removed, there is a fee for removing it, a separate fee for preparing the specimen and a fee for interpreting the results. My dermatologist does all three as he has training in pathology too but can only receive 2 of the 3 fees. If he sent the specimen to a pathologist all 3 fees would be paid, 1 to him, 2 to the pathologist. No big deal but just a quirk in our unique way of medical care compensation. In the end it usually works out very well. One of the 2 individuals I knew who died of MM was a college of mine who told us that he suspected a black lesions, talked of his plans to have it removed and procrastinated a full 6 month before he actually did something about it. By then it was too late. A nasty disease that needs to be taken very seriously. Nick...See MoreSo why exactly do worms love coffee grounds so much?
Comments (26)I don't think it's correct to say that worms "love" used coffee grounds, at least not in the way they react to melon rinds or corn meal, by visibly flocking to them while wiggling happily. I think coffee grounds just have a much longer lead time before they become worm-edible, possibly because it takes a fungal process to break down the cellulose component of the beans. I used to put my used coffee grounds in the bin still in their paper cone filter, but I found this creates a long-lasting clump of grounds that tends to dry out and become impervious to rewetting, and takes an extraordinarily long time to start breaking down on its own. The other drawback to solid masses of grounds is that they will heat up, which you can really notice if you dig around in the bin with your bare hands. Now I dump the grounds out of the filter and mix them together with the other food scraps....See MoreWhy does it cost so much to seal your crawlspace?
Comments (10)That is a ridiculous amount for a ventless, conditioned crawlspace. Our house is listed at over 4K sq/ft but is a cape and very sprawling, so a big footprint AND our cost was NOWHERE near that. As far as doing it as a DIY project, I personally think it would be cake. There is really nothing to it. And, quite frankly, I'm sure that I would have done a better, tidier job than the insulation company that did the work for our contractor. However, it is an important step to the build, and I would want the contractor to bear the responsibility for getting it done and getting it done right. $20K is a major ripoff...for that size house, there is no way that it should run you more than $5K (ours was $3K 2 years ago), including the additional HVAC cost. Also, your building department will not allow you to do this after the fact. It will most likely need to be marked on the plans, and it will be part of the foundation inspection and the final inspection. Our inspectors failed our foundation inspection the first time around because we didn't have vents...even though our plans were very clearly marked that it was to be a ventless conditioned crawl. We are in Central VA....See MoreDenise
