In Memory Of Hatchet
I am so sorry for your loss. Our pets become so much a part of us and they give us so much unconditional love. It is so hard to part with them.
Link: Free Low Income Cell Phone
Amen to that! I could qualify for the free cell phone in NY but I prefer to pay for my own. As a cell phone isnt really a necessity and you do qualify for it, please respect the fact that your fellow citizens are footing the bill for it, respect that and dont...
Lip Gloss?
You can make your own by melting about 3 parts vaseline and one part paraffin wax over hot water. Works great.
A Visitor to the Butterfly Bush
What a beautiful picture! I havent been having a good few days, but just looking at that picture made me feel better! There is wonder and beauty all around us if we are open to appreciating it. Thanks for sending it!
Barkeeper's Towels
You can find bar mops at BJs, Sams, WalMart, even Dollar Tree sometimes. Some are thicker than others, but they all have a pronounced nap on them. They can also be used as napkins instead of paper ones
Uses for Sawdust and Wood Chips?
Hi! Just be careful when using sawdust and/or wood chips for mulch, because as they decompose, they use up nitrogen in the soil, and all plants need that. Be sure to add some nitrogen to the soil to make up for the stuff that has been lost.
Cooling Tubes - How to Make Them?
Try this idea, because it involves no sewing and it is alot faster--Take an average sized microfiber cloth and soak it with nice cool-cold water. Wring it out enough to stop it from dripping. Fold it in a triangle, put around your neck and tie it. I drive school...
Saving Money on Laundry?
Hi! I always start to fill the washer with water and detergent before I put clothes in. I put a good splash of vinegar in, and a small (about fill the bottom 1/8th inch--not much) of the bottom of the cap with Arm and Hammer liquid detergent(or any other, but...
Storing Small Things in Baskets
Heck, yes, there are plenty of things that are underfoot that you need only occasionally that would be right at home in a basket on a high shelf or over the kitchen cabinets. Use every space you can, and if a basket makes the storage easier or prettier, great...
Cleaning Tiller Tines
Good idea for after the fact, but maybe before your hubby starts tilling, spray some PAM or some WD 40 on the tines so the soil doesnt stick so badly in the first place. BTW, what kind of tiller did he buy?
Great Happiness
You are so right! The time to use the admiring words is now. It may make the difference in somedones day that you may not even fathom. A kind word sincerely meant and expressed is a balm for anyone (most of us) who have gone through a day worn thin by the workaday...
Uses for Vinyl Wallpaper?
I have a store in NYState that periodically has double rolls of nice wallpaper for 1.00 ea. I have bought some to redo my rooms, but some were so pretty that I couldnt resist. I cover old shoeboxes with it to make what I store in my closets, etc. pretty, and...
Target and the Salvation Army

Uses for Baby Wipes?
Baby wipes are great for getting out stuff you spill on yourself so stains dont set. Last night I got some chocolate splatters on my wool sweater that I had just washed. A baby wipe blotted on the chocolate saved me from washing the sweater over again. They...
