DH is living on only 35% of his heart's capacity. He is really the only one in our family who is needing insurance. The rest of us are like the majority of the population.....its nice if you happen to have a freak accident or if you happen to be a time bomb, waiting to explode and you have no...

I save Ragu and Prego jars, so when I'm putting honey or figs in jars and a relative wants a jar, I don't have to lose my masons. I also might use that food myself, if I don't happen to give it to a family member and will use it first, just in case its shelf life is more limited. I save all...

Oh my!!! Your friend is in a fix, related to my fix. Well, I have the vat with water and its quiet now, but I was hearing a lot of noise a few hours ago. I just hope I find out I hit the jackpot.

I have not turned in the plate on my Suburban, even if my kids want me to, because its the perfect vehicle to get my grain in and right now, I am loving it. It does cost me 200 every 6 months on insurance, but its as big as a truck and I don't need to worry if its raining. I was out of grain a...

One thing I did that actually didn't save me a penny, but I've already bought it.....was bought a chipper/shredder. I love to mulch as much as the law allows because it makes it easier to weed, keeps the ground cooler and decreases the amount of watering I need to do. So I already have...

To tell the truth, there is a lab in my parish a few towns over and I have know of them to buy snakes, frogs and lizards. Pretty sure they must also buy rats and my daughter teaches biology at our HS, so she might have connections. I was half thinking it might be to my advantage to catch them...

If they already sick, I doubt it, but you right cuz I don't want to take that chance. I'm late moving. I have been missing a lot of sleep lately and I took a melatonin. I almost took a nerve pill from an old Rx, but then remembered I want to apply for a job and don't need that in my system...

My parents did that in the mid 70's and we had a lot of fun. If I can get it done, I might even sell my place. I can't sell the orchard cuz, even if I own it, Dad has life long usage and rights, so I'd always have a place to park and be closer to my main problem......plus Momma's old coop is...

DD....maybe thats the ticket....water. Most poisons, claim they will get very thirsty, leave the house in search of water and drink until they die. Maybe if we'd put a large water access in the problem area, we wouldn't have dead rodents everywhere. Well, its colder today and I hear things...

yes. Spoiled brat. Mom was pure. Dad was a no good, chicken killing, blankety-blank. I had nothing to do with whatever happened to him, although I did have all the motive. She was the runt.

Here is a 1981 bus I won on an auction our school board had several years ago, which I have removed most of the seats. My kids have fun cleaning it and using it as their playhouse....its roomier than their actual playhouse and has been used to store stuff for SIL, which lasted way too long. I...

Not familiar with the breed. Just appraised DS of the conversation we have going. He went up in the attic and informed me all the bait is gone, but I heard something a few minutes ago. He didn't see any sign of life up there.....or of death. But I put the 10 gallon wine vat, with peanut...

FEM.....you have a rat terrier? Maybe I shouldn't ask.....I'll be jealous ;) Well, I still hear a bit of noise above me, but seems like a little less, but its early still. DS just paced in front of me a little and asked if I thought anything was dead yet. I tell him, idk about dead, but I...

He claims its a historical fact. Thats nice, but I never heard it and now I can't unhear it. Create a serial killer rat. He said Jamaica no longer has a bad rat problem and that is why. I didn't ask him for his facts. Well, I don't get much company anyway.

Awesome sumi. Well, DS didn't tell me what he was up to, but he went out and bought poison. He said, the smell will go away eventually. He already threw a few big clumps of poison in the attic. He is supposed to throw some in both sheds, the trailer, the bus and the loft of the barn also...

In my shed, I knew I had a problem, but didn't know how bad until I cleaned it up. I was down to the very last sheet of plywood to get out and I told the boys to get ready. They were 10 and 11 at the time and I had armed them with sticks, but the dog was with us....rat terrier. When I moved...

What happens to them? I have used different types of poisons and they all claim that the rodents will eat them, get very thirsty, leave the house to find water and drink themselves to death.....has not been my experience. IDK....maybe mine get disoriented and lose their way to the water. But...

My story: I only have a seasonal problem. Obviously it is very hot in my area over the summer and no animal in their right mind would stay in my attic when I could probably bake a dish up there. But in the winter, thats another story. I did have a problem a while back where I knew something...

Today I woke up with my demons. It was one of those mornings when my first waking thoughts are,"I hate my life." But eventually I got up and while drinking my coffee, I grabbed a paper and pen and started writing a to-do list. Not the stuff that I have to do everyday anyway. The stuff you...

Its starting to dry up!!! Thank God. I played a little in the garden, around lunch time and then a lot more after 5:00PM, when I finally finished all my running around. Property on my place was appraised slightly lower than the parish had me for, so my taxes will decrease slightly, but DH's...
