It's taken about 6 months but it's finally done!
I learned with being on permanent disability that the government will write off all my student loans. It was a lengthy process but they finally did it!!
I pulled all my credit reports yesterday. They show all student loans at ZERO & all paid as agreed.
My credit score shot up without that $53,000 debt. What a relief as I couldn't pay back the loans with my tiny monthly check. That's 1 task done! Thank You Obama!!

Finally, some good boiling beef.
Comments (4)Oh thank God I am in a beef-raising county and there are little local abattoirs. Several of them show up at Farmer's Market on Saturdays, but in wintertime...you gotta drive there. Your post got me to drooling. There is a richness to meat simmered with the bones in, and it comes from the marrowfat of the bone. I used to be able to identify how good a cut of meat was at a market by looking at the slice of bone in it. Now, if one goes to a supermarket, the evidence has been surgically removed! When I get the creatively cut roasts home I ask my dh the butcher and often as not, the store meat cutters have hedged a little moving down the muscles to include parts they shouldn't and leaving out parts they should have included. He just got back from a visit with his 80 something year old uncle who also worked many years in the family abattoir. They both tilt over sideways in the same direction and they have come to the conclusion it was from decades of hoisting halves of beef carcasses over one shoulder in the days before cryovac and primal cuts.

Comments (1)The manure is good for warming the trays. Later the manure will be useful in the soil. But, what temperature do you have during the night? ItâÂÂs true, the manure heats the bottom of the trays, but when you cover the trays with those windows glass, cold could get inside and damage the delicate seedlings. In the picture I see those trays uncovered. How warm is during the day in Oklahoma in mid-March? I live in Long Island, NY, and I grow my seedlings in a small greenhouse. Many grow under lights in basements or garages....See MorePics! Some good news and some bad news.
Comments (14)Thanks for the compliments on the annual pot! I worked for a private gardener one summer many years ago and my job was to do the annual pots and take care of them all summer. They ordered truck loads of gorgeous and rare annuals for their customers. I WISH I had access to something more interesting, but I make due (sp?) with what the local nurseries sell.... geraniums, million bells, licorice, potato vines, petunias, etc... I have 2 of these pots in my back done the same way and every year all I do is change the color of the million bells and geranium. It always comes out nice, but I think I'm getting bored with the same design every year. Oops, sorry to go on... thanks!...See MoreAnnouncement for Kenmore Oasis washing machine
Comments (68)March 26, 2013: re: Kenmore Elite Oasis HE issues (start and rinse cycle issues, unbalanced issues): Electronic Control Board (aka the motherboard, the brains) recall, replacement and labor at no charge: Thank you to those who posted correct ph number to resolve these problems! Here is the ph number again: (800) 847-9083. We have an appt scheduled" to receive the updated electronic control board,service and labor-@ no charge" per the product resolution customer service rep. You may assume all went well if I do not post a follow up. DO ask the product resolution customer rep to REPEAT your model #, serial #, your ph # and address (she typed part of the serial # incorrectly which could disqualify you receiving replacement recall). The customer serv reps' work environment is NOISY (she replied "there are 213 problem resolution reps in the same room"). VERIFY what you are hearing the rep say and ask kindly for a summary why you called and what the resolution is to be. She spoke rapidly and had an accent. Verify any numbers you have not verified (including your ph # and address) at the end of the call. The customer resolution rep had obvious experience handling the process, obviously streamed lined due all the years of issues complaints and it took about 20-25 minutes total time, most time was waiting for her to process the info she enters. Our Kenmore Oasis washing machine has been highlyt problematic issues during the start cycle and rinse cycles as well as frequent unbalanced loads (error code: UL). Our model and serial numbers complied with the recall (I have read this is a "silent", unadvertised recall. We have an appointment scheduled "to receive an updated electronic control board and the labor service at no charge". Hope this works out (believe it when I see it and when it continues as resolved) and wishes for resolutions to those who are working towards theirs. We all learned a big lesson in the world of electronic motherboard computerized washers and driers: buy the old fashioned, dependable washers and driers with knobs! (I'm staying this route with everything appliance and vehicles). I will def will stay my computer pref as a MacGurl though!...See More
