    Your 2026 Garden

    You all are making me jealous. Pictures of trees and shrubs in bloom. Planting tender stuff outside. April 16 as a last frost date.:gig Here, I harden tender stuff off the last week of May. No trees or shrubs are blooming yet. They will probably bloom in the next week in the warm spell, and...

    What are your frugal and sustainable tips and tricks?

    I remember a suggestion along those lines: Paint the end of the handle (shovel, rake, etc) a bright color, like orange, or pink or yellow. Then when you lend it to a neighbor, it's easily identifiable as yours, and maybe if they see it in their garage, they'll remember to return it. Or if you...

    BYC's Random Funny Posting Thread! Hosts Mike & Sally

    My thought was it's a coin. And he's pointing at the fire in the background as if to say, "Look what I got paid to do, cause a lot of destruction." Any art majors here? What's the story behind this painting?

    The Old Folks Home

    I know if I fall, I won't bounce, I'll break. Hubby doesn't quite understand my fear of tripping and falling. I get a gut clench whenever I feel unbalanced.

    BYC Café

    I think we have chosen a builder. The guy we talked to is very interested in what we're doing and making sure that we like it. And that we can add a roof in a year or two. We had talked about doing the deck, roof, and putting a sliding glass door where a window is now, and doing it all. Eh...

    Name 3 Things You Did Or Will Do Today—2026

    I cleaned the counter tops. I washed the bathroom rugs and a load of towels. I cleaned the front and kitchen windows. I dug up a bucket of weeds out of the garden for the chickens. I paid and mailed a bill. I opened the green house and uncovered the plants about 9:00, then covered them and...

    Sally's GF3 thread

    It was 56° when I got up at 5:45. It's dropped to 54° at 7:30. I don't think it'll drop much more. Good for the green house pots! We're still cleaning the house in preparation for company over on Saturday. We're down to the stuff that will stay clean for a few days. :lau Tomorrow is the stuff...

    We got up to 58° with beautiful sunshine today! Tonight's low is only down to the upper 40s. Tomorrow is a "sunshine sandwich." Cloudy and rainy in the morning and late afternoon/evening, with clearing and sunshine in between. :thumbsup

    Sally's GF3 thread

    I try to plant the seeds for my tomato starts in the green house by around April 1. It was way too cold then. The green house is only passive solar heat, so highs of 38° and lows of 24° with no sunshine is not going to sprout seeds. I got 48 pots planted yesterday! Yay! This is what I planted...
