I have been planning on tilling the front yard just a bit, putting rocks around the trees, then throwing some flower seed down haphazard in what used to be the grassy area. Not sure if this will work, or it might need too much watering. I'm getting tired of cutting the grass in the front, as the yard is small, and it's mostly tree roots.
Thanks guys, pacing, pacing, pacingView Thread

I've been in a seed exchange, actually since I haven't had a garden for years I'm more on the seed aceptance. What I'm hoping to do is get everything started get the plants a certain height, then sell them to people wanting to have a garden.
Well, got down an oh my goodness, found out that I have almost 35 packages of seeds. Now some packages only have 5 seeds in it, others have 20-50. oh dear, now how the heck am I going to get these started and them sell them?
I don't have enough containers. I don't want to have something large so that I can plant small rows assorted items. I'd probably forget which one is which.
I have mostly Heirloom varieties of all kinds of things, flowers, tomatoes, herbs., etc. I think I bit off more than I can chew.
I'm not wanting to plant any of these in my yard, well maybe some of the flower ones. Sheesh,started out with the herbs, cilantro basil, chives, garlic oregeno etc.
eeek,View Thread

guess it is no longer Sunday, it's early Mon. morning, technically it's 2 am Mon. morning.4 more hours to go at work.
not much going on, slept on and off all day Sat. & Sun. had wanted to goto the Hoosier Horse Fair, but didn't have anyone who could go.
oh bother,
hate going places by myself. Now I know why people have children, then grandchildren.
so have a goo night sleep everyone.View Thread

well, guess I'd made some other mistakes, but I felt there were others involved in those. The company just won't admit it.
so, no more cold drafty guard shacks, no more hot very hot guard shacks. We had to put down salt etc. at that site, which meant filling up the bin on the back of the truck we drove. Kind of hard to pick up 50 pound bags.
well, anyway, I'm now at a better site, it's an office building for a bank. So, there's people here most of the time. I have to do patrols, inside and outside the building at least 3 times each.
oh yeah, outside is cold. but, there are ways to get around it.
The bad part of this job is the hours. plus a 50 cent reduction in pay. Not for being bad, it's what this location pays. The hours are 10 pm till 6 am. 4 days a week.
eeeek,
at least no putting down salt, no shoveling the side walks etc.
thing is, they've got the computer locked or blocked in certain ways. No facebook, no email, no youtube, Also for some strange certain sites will come up as a social type, so they are blocked, yet, others I have access to and even watch videos. I can look at ebay, not sure if I"m able to bid. Never tried it.
hate hate these hours.
yet, if I was working 2nd shift, there's a heck of a lot more work to do. Finger printing, as anyone who's hired comes to this site to get their background check, finger printing, and assorted other things. They do a whole heck of a lot more than what I do on 3rd shift.
They even have to answer the telephone and transfer calls.
nope, I don't have to do this. hee hee, who's going to call during those hours?
since it's a banks office building, we do have to be more careful and pay attention to who's leaving their car or what ever in the parking lot. Irate employees, or others, that might want to harm the building or employees, armored cars come here etc. soooo.
the patrols that I have to do, are 3 a night, inside and out, but, we can always do more if we want. I do that sometimes, when the weather is nice, I walk around outside several times.
winter time hee hee, I don't walk much outside, but I do walk out of every exit or entrance walk as far outside as I can see, to check out the whole parking lot etc.on that side of the building. This gives just a good a patrol as walking all the way around the building.
so fun fun fun, thank goodness I only have to work 4 days a week. Though if you think about it, just might be a bit more.
hmm ,come in on Thurs. at 10pm, get off Fri. at 6 am, come back Fri. night at 10 pm, off at 6 am, back on Sat. 10pm till Sun. 6 am, back at 10 pm, get off at 6am on Mon.
hmm, so is that 3 days off? well, 18 hours off on Mon. then 24, on Tues, Wed. and then 22 hours off on Thurs.
hmmm, totally crazy,
guess you can tell I'm bored, as I'm rambling.
hee hee!
sitting here reading a book, off and on the computer, bad thing is the video cameras I'm supposed to be watching, are behind me, no way to move the computer.
think they planned it this way. hee hee!
so what are you doing since you can't sleep?
aoooooooooooo!View Thread

hee hee, sitting here a work, bored stiff. thank goodness I can go on patrol and don't have a time frame to be gone and back. So I walk a little sit down a little, as it's an office building, so lots of chairs.
I also do patrols outside, yep, cold and can be scary. Once you get used to it, then it's no biggie. Well lit parking lot, so nothing to worry about.
So anyone who's still awake, sending you an aoooooooo! baying at the moon.View Thread

Yes, applied, had a lawyer etc. when it came time to go in front of the judge, Lawyer said, I'd been working too much and that they felt I wouldn't have a chance.
bummer.
Lawyer said, if I was still having the same issues, or worse, then in a couple of years, I might be able to get full SSD.
Since the first of this year I've been trying to get medicaid, so I could get bariatric or gastric bypass surgery.
just found out they denied me.
I've also been denied for food stamps. Which I"m going to fight, as hey figure this up, $9.25 x 64 hours, two times a month, comes up to $1184, minus a mandatory fee going to a trustee for my chapter 13,
Food stamp people said I make to much money. yet, the limit is $1250 if I remember correctly. I was very close.
I'm going to be taking some time off to get knee surgery, which could last 2 weeks, or more,
well then I'm going to apply for food stamps then, I shouldn't have any trouble.
Yes, I'm still working, security guard, 32 hours a week.
bad part is 10 pm, till midnight.
well I won't have to worry about falling asleep, with FM we're all mostly night owls anyway!
I've been doing some MiMi research regarding vitamins etc.
so, bought some this week, a B12, higher dose of "D" some magnesum, bought it from the health food store that we have that I'm very happy with, lots of knowledgable people there. Thing is, I can't buy it all at once, so working on the little at a time.
Hopefully this will help.
got a new guy I'm dating 5 years younger, guess I'm not a cougarl but it's fun. Darn man, works too much, so our dates are more like 6 am breakfast, or right when he gets off work, and the 3 hours before I go to work.
we spend a lot of time texting each other. Which can be loads of fun. Especially when I'm able to text, and he can't, due to being very busy at his job. hee hee, I will send him sugestions that can be taken in a good way, or a naughty way.
hee hee, loads of fun. I send it to his personal phone, so he doesn't have to answer it, but it will be there for when ever he does have time.
this can be fun.
yet, I'd love to get more face to face time.
MiMi, you've done lots of research, have you ran into anything that will help cool down rosacea? I've found things that are supposed to help prevent it, or take care of any sores that can pop up.
Yet, I'm always running around with a reddish face, or even a stronger red, looks like a sun burn all the time.
now that I'm working a regular 10pm till 6 am, I will be around much more. What else is there for me to do? hee hee, all I get to do is walk around the building.
oh fun!View Thread

they don't like it when I come, as I get badly bruised, and very wobbly. They told me not to come back unless it was for an emergency for a family or friend.View Thread


Ginger ale is one thing that's been known to help, along with peppermint tea.
won't hurt to try it,
it also just tastes good. drink it all the time.View Thread
