What's Happened Here?
Comments (38)hi all, im sort of a an old newbie, did some trading here well in seed swap any way, but in my 2nd month as a member got busted three times in same week for posting wrong, didnt get any warnings that i was doing it wrong till low and behold got all three warnings in one day. i had lost someones addy and posted everywhere except right place. so after a long while i just resigned up under new name but haven't done any trading till this past two weeks, was trying to get rid of all my cannas and monkey grass and started posting it for sasbe. needless to say i got alot of e-mails asking THEY FIT IN A SASBE? LOL as i said i had only done seed swapping before so i didn't know the termanolgy for shipping plants....but i was instructed on how to phrase it correctly..LOL thanks all for the help.. hopefully i will make some new friends here as well. i've also learned a few things after my first shipment of plants,, if you go overboard trying to impress someone with a big plant it costs alot...LOL well heres to future trades and garden friends. hope you all have a blooming good day!!! see you in the trade lines, darlene...See Morewhats happening here

Comments (52)just wanted to give an update! thank you all for your help! had a friend help put up some sheer curtains and the shelf on the other side of the room. the couch is still a futon, but I did buy it a heavy cover for the time being. it's frustrating because I have to smooth the wrinkles out of it and adjust it a lot, but at least it's better than the sheet. there is a blue chair in the corner i'll post another picture of. it was $20 at a yard sale. I'm not sure if I should keep it around or not, or look for something different. I have another one but they're too big and awkwardly shaped to fit 2 in the room. still working on getting things up on the walls...I need a better drill. I'm still frustrated with it "feeling" cluttered and not as clean as before though, and still pretty college student-y if anyone has suggestions!...See Moreinfrared camera - what happened here…
Comments (8)I had a four square house from the 1930,s where something similar happened. The poor farmers that built it had no money and decided to keep out the cold by stapling potato seed bags inside the stud cavities. As you can imagine it did not help much. For years a 1100 sq ft house took 500 gallons of oil and 5 full cords of firewood to heat it per winter. In the 1980,s the owners put cellulose into the walls by drilling holes from the outside. The way that works is, when the pressure built in the pumping system, it indicated the cavity was full. Except it was not. in 2017 i tore into the walls to put in new wiring. what happened was, the insulation built behind the bags stapled inside and fluffed out, but that was it. 90% of the wall cavity had no insulation. I am betting an obstruction of some sort also happened to you and why you have the void. Just for everyone’s information, in the end I reinsulated the house for $570, R 19 fiberglass with a foot in the ceiling at R 38. I also put in 75 outlets while i was there. I could heat that 1100 sq ft house on a bag of wood pellets a day here in Maine. (This morning it was 4 degrees f without windchill) A half a years worth of oil and firewood would have paid for insulation. What a colossal waste of wood and oil all those years....See More- 11 years ago
