What to do with 400 sqft
Comments (45)I would put the TV on the wall between the living room and the bedroom using an articulating arm so that you can pull the TV out and angle it and push it flat against the wall when you're not using it. Get a third chair, more seating, to put in that corner, and make sure the bottom of the TV is above the top of the back of that chair. Get a chair for that corner that is easy to move so it can be placed elsewhere for TV viewing if you have a few friends over. I would then put at least one of the stacking shelves in the closet. Floating storage shelving is a great idea. Instead of a coffee table, I'd get a table to put in the joint the black chair and the sofa create (move that stacking storage piece) and then a few very small tables on which people can put drinks, i.e.: martini tables kind of thing. I'd get some small ottomans on which people can put plates or feet. If you eat in the LR watching TV, I'd get a TV tray table which can be folded up and stashed when not in use. Here's one for $20 at Bed Bath and Beyond...See MoreA daylilies 2022

I had it for one season and liked its color quite a bit but it didn't overwinter here unfortunately.....Steve your picture of a Bodacious Pattern is a beauty...........Maryl...See MoreFebruary 2022 Week 3- let's get this party started!
Comments (41)I had another Dr. appoint today and on the way home I had Madge stop at the Poteau Farmers Co-op. I can hardly drive through Poteau without stopping to check on their seed supply. I bought an ounce ea. of three different cucumber seeds ( just what I need, more seeds ). I also bought a 50# bag of 13-13-13. This will give me more than enough fertilizer for my two house gardens, and the wildlife garden. I use mostly compost in the house gardens. The fertilizer $24.08 with tax. The seeds were $1.00 a pack. The fertilizer was a little more than I have been paying, the seeds are the same price. I guess I may be hording, but I want to make sure I have fertilizer and seeds on hand just in case the supply chain messes up. Of course all of you know that fuel has gone up, and expected to even go higher, but groceries are going up also, which makes it worse on the ones that try to live on a fixed income. Madge just told me that someone was calling me ( it's the donkeys ). I can hardly hear, but the donkeys tell Madge, knowing that she will tell me. Yesterday when I went out into the pasture to find the stock to feed them a little. The donkeys were across the creek, about 3 or 400 yards from the house just running like crazy ( you don't see donkeys run like that often ). When I got back to the house, Madge ask me what was wrong with the donkeys? I told her that they were telling you that the weather is changing, she had never heard that, but when I was a kid, we never had a tv, and sometimes we did not have a radio. When the hoses were running like that, my dad would always say that, it seemed to have some truth to it. Dad would also say that a horse would turn its butt to the wind if it could not find cover. I never did pay much attention to that one, if the weather was that bad, I had already found cover and the horses were the last thing on my mind. All I had to worry about was having plenty of coal busted up and in the house, or by the door so we could easily carry a bucket in to keep the fire going. Well I am rambling and the donkeys are telling on me....See More2022 Spring Fling! April 23, 11-3, see below. Food, plants also
Comments (29)Hi Everyone. Will this SF be another 2017?! So....Tom and I will purchase the meat this week, get it thawed and smoked for Saturday. All of that should be great. About the tomatoes.... The Jet Setters and Heidis are not the best. I suspect I got a bag of "bad" potting mix. However, they are growing. I will bring them...and if anyone wants to give them a chance, please do. I am going to plant some of them still. Rick bought Jet Stars to replace my Jet Setters for the SG. BUT, I'm still going to plant them somewhere else. I have a couple of places in mind. I have high hopes for them. I think once they get planted, they'll be fine. I have 2 roselle plants for Lisa that are still doing great. The Dawn pepper didn't germinate....so nothing there. I'll repeat this at the other place....See Moreneely
