Christin, there's a difference between mulching and leaving the remains of a plant in place until new growth emerges in spring :-) Mulching can very well make a difference in protecting marginal plants because it does afford insulation - certainly to the soil (which will help with roots) and perhaps even to the crown if you pile mulch over the top of it. But it's not a guarantee and it may work very well on some plants and not so well on others. Leaving old stems, dried flower stalks, etc. in place just doesn't have the same effect. I don't know of any good reasons NOT to mulch :-) It is a soil insulator, moderating against temperature extremes in both winter (heaving due to freeze/thaw) and summer. It will provide protection against erosion both from heavy rainfall and your own irrigation. It supresses weeds and if you use an organic mulch, it will add to soil texture and provide nutrients as it decomposes. It encourages beneficial organisms and can help prevent reinfecting plants with diseases by not allowing fungal spores, etc. to splash up on the foliage. There are some drawbacks, primarily that it provides a safe/secure environment for some pests to hide or overwinter in, but those can be successfully addressed rather easily. If organic, it needs to be replaced on a fairly regular basis and if inorganic, it's a PITA to keep it tidy and debris out of it. What is the most effective method of mulching, material to use and when to do is going to vary a lot by garden and location. And what you are trying to protect. For the most part, I never mulch over the crown of any plant for winter protection simply because my climate does not require it, although this is a very common practice in colder climates. Marginal or not fully hardy plants get any necessary protection by growing them in containers and overwintering them in safe place or sometimes, piling loose leaves around them. IME, having good drainage affords a more reliable method of protection, as the combination of cold and wet is typically the kicker, not just the cold. So to respond to your statement that no amount of mulching/covering will save a plant from death by cold, because that is only topical cover and will not protect the roots of the plant, I'd say that is not true most of the time :-) It depends.....on the plant, the location, the soil conditions, the severity of the winter and any specific microclimate that might be involved. Mulch can and does protect against cold but it is not a guarantee, especially for marginally hardy plants.

I'm secretly going to type this out just so the hubby doesn't see this. LOL My husband really goes above and beyond for me. Not only does he work long hours so that I can have my dream of being a farmer, but he helps with farm work as well. He makes me laugh on the daily. He's more intelligent than I am with quite a few things, but looses gracefully when I kick his butt (like almost every single time) we play Risk. He'll do the most ridiculous things like try and ride our steer and our sense of humor is so in sync it's scary. I love that I'm just as attracted to him now as I was almost 17 years ago when we met. And I love that he still makes me feel like he's attracted to me. Oddly enough, the first night we met, what drew me to him was playing the game Mind Trap. I thought to myself, "this is the most intelligent guy I've ever met." See the key is to marry someone more intelligent and good looking then you to improve your future children's gene pool. ;)

Tell me how you built your house—from the beginning.

One of the best things we did was find an architect early on who understoord our budget and understood that we were doing almost everything ourselves. His design was smaller and more efficient that what we had sketched out on our own - he showed us where we could make compromises to get down to our budget, we still got everything we needed, and we LOVE the house. I'm sure not every architect would have been this way, but it's worth interviewing some (interviews/initial meetings are free) to get some ideas and see if you can find someone who can think about how to simplify and what can be done to make the building process more efficient. In our case, or architect defintily saved us money and we got a nicer house. You want to be really upfront about budget here (and maybe give a number a bit lower than your actual max), beacuse it's easy to have your eyes get bigger than your wallet. We were acting as GC as well as doing the carpentry and a lot of the other work ourselves (but we contracted out things like plumbing/heat, electric, roof, insulation, excavation, etc.). All during the design process and initial planning, we kept a spreadsheet of known costs. We broke down all the parts of the house (foundation, roof, doors, windows, plumbing, tile - everything down to the $100 medicine cabinet) and plugged in the best cost info we had. We used the homewyse online estimators for services and home depot online pricing for products at first, then plugged in actual estimates from contractors as we got them, then finally the actual costs when they occured. This allowed us to keep a really good eye on the budget, and understand when something had gone over and we needed to cut something in the future, or up the total budget. We had enough cash saved to not take out a loan, and I think that actually saved us a lot of money. Because we weren't having to draw down from a loan, we could pay the sub-contractors right away (I am postitive we got better service/prioritization because of that), and we were also able to put off some finishing details that a bank would have required be finished on a certain timeline. I know a family member who still has wall to wall carpet in their house, because the bank required it 20 years ago. They hate it, but that's what was required, and once it's in, it feels like too much work to change. Someone else told us they rushed all their detailed finish work (trim, stair railing, etc.) because the bank needed it done in x amount of days - it didn't come out very nice, but it was done on time. For us, the only penalty of taking longer was having to pay another month of rent - so that was a huge freedom. It was also really nice to be able to make all the decisions ourselves, rather than checking with the bank to see if they would allow things - just one less stressful thing in a very stressful project.

JS could be a John, Jack, James, but not a Jones and Johnson, right? The issue is that when you solve for a dual probability, ie that you are J_____, S______,you multiply each probability together. Multiplying a small fraction by a small fraction gives you a really small fraction. For example let's just say that 10% of people's first names begins with J and 10% of people's last names begins with S. The probability of being a JS is only ~1%, because 10% x 10% = 1%.
