Comments (15)gingerjenny, I have posted my blog before, but I'll tack it on here, in case you didn't see it. I started it to chronicle the progress and keep others informed about what was going on. Some of it is informative and some of it is just silly. I tried very hard to keep a positive attitude during the build, look for the humor, and remember that the house was a blessing and not a burden. Here's an example of a post where I looked for the humor in a bad situation. Here is a link that might be useful: We're in deep doo doo now....See Moregood blogs with ideas--not our blogs
Comments (6)moccasinlanding, I went to Thistlewood, and I just spent 30 minutes reading the site. It's great. Thanks for posting that link! I found a post about how to get scratches off white plates. I'm a little scared to try it (liquid Barkeeper's Friend), but I think I may have to try. To answer your question, I follow waaay too many blogs. If any of you have a Mac, there is a program called Reeder that will take all the RSS feeds you subscribe to in Google Reader, strip out all the ads and other "icky" things (like flashing banners, canned music, etc) and reformat them so that all you see is the text and images. It's beautiful, and very efficient. Imagine having a beautiful magazine, all about decorating (in my case, anyway!), delivered to your computer every day, for free. Of course, Reeder is also very dangerous. I can now follow about 45 blogs in less than 15 minutes a day. Unfortunately, it looks like Thistlewood Farm does not allow people to follow with Google Reader. Sigh. But some of my favorite blogs are: Better After: http://betterafter.blogspot.com/ Between Naps on the Porch: http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ Jennifer Rizzo: http://www.jenniferrizzo.com/...See MoreBlog post about iding roses
Comments (4)Please update the blog post to show examples of how it should be done, instead of an example of how it shouldn't be done. If you don't want to have a ton of photos, do only one rose - full bush, canes, leaves, then flowers. When we ask for those photos, it seems a lot of people don't really understand why, so they don't necessarily show what we are looking for. Also, I second and third Jackie's recommendation of knowing WHERE the rose is growing. It seems rare these days for new posters to have any idea where they live, and it is important....See MoreWooHoo - Victoria Elizabeth Barnes is back "alive" on Insta & her blog
Comments (6)It's been a long time since she posted and I was shocked to find her message in my email. Hopefully she'll fill us in on what she's been up to. olychick - I don't remember when she posted here - I guess it was on the 'dark side' of Home Decorating....See MoreAnne
