worries were no problem at all
Comments (0)Hi everyone, I noticed on my white goldfish a round dark area. I immediately thought it was a parasite or some disease brought in by a new fish. Fortunately I went to a fish store where the owner knows his stuff and he said that it's most likely a bruise from the way fish chase around, so not to put any medicines in the pond. He was right because the spot is fading. He said that the main clue that a fish has troubles is if they aren't eating or are acting lethargic. This fish was always acting fine with lots of spunk and had a good appetite. So moral of the story is: talk to someone that knows, not someone that's just going to try to sell you something.

Comments (6)This is the same problem that I had with mine. This is the same washer and everything. I love mine, but please get someone to check the drain pump on your washer before you use it again. It turned out that there was a small hair clip that got stuck in my drain pump. It cost me about $100 for the drain pump. If I had checked the pump when the code came on instead of waiting a week, I probably would not have had to replace the pump. I would have simply had to remove the clip. It is something that my husband had no trouble fixing, but it was inconvenient to deal without a washer until it was fixed. BTW, if you decide to fix it yourself please, please, please be careful of the sharp edges on the back of machine. My husband cut his arm pretty badly because they are really sharp. It is possible that what ever was blocking the pump has passed through, but it is worth having it checked to make sure. Good luck...See Moreworried about what bm might be brewing
Comments (4)There is not much you can do right now except wait and see. And dont worry about it...i know its easy said than done. I'm a worry wart myself, always wondering what my dh's ex is schemeing...cause she does scheme. She can't take the kids unless she has an agreement with your dh. If she takes them, its kidnapping, plain and simple. So if she wants that, she will be in court with your hubby and then it up to the judge to decide whats best for the kids. Now it also depends on the age of your ss's. How old are they? Cause if theya re in their teens, they say will have a swing to this and there is nothing any of you can do about it. Question? you have the kids for the most part but continue to pay CS???? Why hasn't your dh altered the payment plans?...See MoreA worried rain garden winger . . .
Comments (13)The plant list is similar to what you have described Nandina! Chionanthus is definitely on the planting list, next to the bench. Did not know it has both male and female plants. Have already planted several viburnums down below--Sargent's viburnum. And dwarf fothergilla (witch hazel's cousin) in the front, and some red twig dogwoods but I think I will transplant them, I don't like them in this setting. The larger shrubs are mostly our witch hazel collection, so Hamamelis species and varieties. We surveyed a local native high quality natural area to come up with some ideas on plants that would naturally be growing in this situation. One we are going to try along with the viburnums is pagoda dogwood, but keeping deer off of it will be a challenge. We found native currants in our reference plot but staying away from them due to lots of white pines nearby. Hence the maple-leaved viburnum choices. Debating on Illex verticullata because they don't do well with the excessive deer browsing problems around here. Am trying to solve that problem as well! I am planning on perhaps wild blueberries but so far haven't found any low growing ones and I have enough high stuff for the back. They would replace the redtwig dogwoods. The ones I got are cute, with small leaves close to the stem, so very ornamental but they look too contrived in this natural setting. I have a more formal place for them. As for the salt, YES, there are alternatives, but to get the grounds crew to coordinate and think out of the box may take some doing. I have had to re-do the plant list a couple of times. It's sometimes like searching for the needle in the haystack--native, deer resistant, salt tolerant, shade tolerant . . . I mean c'mon!! :) Our soil is limestone base so somewhat forgiving on salt. I have a huge compost stash for ammending and that helps. Also helps to counteract juglone, which thankfully is not really a problem in that area with the one walnut tree. Anyway, I will post the plant list in a bit for anyone interested. Lots of wildflowers, some ferns and grasses, not all for the rock garden, some for the hill down below. Am focusing on shrubs and trees first though. So far I've shown the two schemes/layouts to a lot of folks for feedback, some like the busier one, some like the more formal one. I'll probably do a hybrid. My MS Paint skills are deteriorating so not sure how many more versions I will play with. Eventually I will map the whole thing. Actually doing a map with grid paper next week with my class. Would love to find a site where you could download standard graphics for trees and shrubs and forbs. That would save me having to draw or try and find clip art for them....See More- 6 months agolast modified: 6 months ago
