Pink Fox: its Raining...IN MY HOUSE! :/

[Wannabefree]

Maybe I can help you out with the plastic

 

[pinkfox]

that would be huge, figure ill need a 10x21 (or so) ft peice for the main body then 2 10x10 peices for the ends...
I can get a roll of 6mil at lowes for $55, but im doing some looking online, i ound one place that does it as low as .10 a sqft, but i havent yet found out what their minimum orders are lol.


in other news:
rain rain rain...
i should have bought an arc rather than a house...i swear were all ging to float away...
BUT the teps are up nthe 50's and if it wernt for the soggyness id be outside getting more brush cutting done on those privets...

because of the rain todays plan involves: cleaning ine i didnt do it yesterday, and running into south jackson...i want to pick up at least 1 peice of shelving for the bedroom, get gas and i need to pic up a few bits andbobs from wllyworld. then on my way back i need to stop in at the drs with some paperwork to get my coupon for the low income dentist (ive got a tooth in the very back that was filled and the tooch has now cracked around the filling *YUCK* not realy painfull but once in a while it twinges and id rather not wait untill it gets painfull)

cleaning...well ive got dishes to get done, litterboxes to scoop, bird cages to clean and vacuming to do...
oh and christmas stuff to put away!

Sounds like you have a full day planned! I might have that much plastic left over. I will check to see how wide mine is, and roll it out and measure it sometime when I get feeling better. I think hubs gave me his cootie I have greenhouse business to take care of today too...lots of dirt slinging and planting Tummy feels like crud, but the rest of me can work

feel better!

 

[Wannabefree]

I am A little anyway. I think it may have just been this front moving in here that got me all clogged up and funky feeling. Hopefully as it moves out I will continue to get feeling a bit better.

hope so! this weather is certinaly off its medication! lol.

i got quite a bit done today...
whent into town picked up my scripts ect, put gas in my car, splurged on some plastic coat hangers for my closet lol...
im down to $20 to last me the month (ive got a small Mystery shopping check comming in about a week and a half but untill then im not allowed to leave the house lol.

i did stop in lowes and picked up some white whelving form the salvage bin that were PERFECT for what i needed at about 1/4 the price i would have been paying normally. 3 shelves, and the brackets for them for pennies on the dollar...
i did splurge the $7 on the self drilling drywall anchors though...LOVE those things!!! they make hanging everything so much easier!
Walmart had 1 set of the mini drawers ive been looking for and the box was damage so they were 1/2 price... that whent on the credit card...
I want another 1 but itll wait untill net month.

got home, unloaded EVERYTHING from the car (just need to take a trash bag out and the vacume and get it cleaned out)
built the drawers, put up shelves, did litterboxes and a few dishes...but getting everything up and built took a while of measuring and leveling...my walls are NOT even remotly straight and my floor is less than level LOL!

so now tomorrows plan after breakfast is to do dishes, get the christmas stuff put away and do the bird cages before lunch.
going out to A's for an early season BBQ for lunch, but ill probbaly finnish dishes once i get home.
i can then run the vacume around, dust, and clean the fishtanks on saturday...

monday im going to go hang out with WBF assuming ive got enough go-juice for the car that is lol

Pink, you don't want the plastic from Lowe's. It will fall apart in just a few months. You want regular green house plastic.

 

[pinkfox]

if i was going for the lowes stuf id be using 6mil contractor, should last 2 years (1 with full sun and wind...)
green house should last 4 years but is more than 5 times the price right now as far as ive found...
but i still looking for other options, id prefer greenhouse plastic but either way ill have to replace every couple of years.

 

[Denim Deb]

Mines been on for several years.

 

[pinkfox]

got a bunch of seed in the mail this morning....
SUPER excited (like beyond excited)
im going to need a bigger garden! LOL!

lots of heirloom tomatoes and sweet peppers, some peas and beans, and okra, even herbs and lettuce
I did a little happy dance when i looked through the padded envelope!

these seeds were sent to me by a wonderfull person as a simple act of kindness, and its acts like this that restore my faith in humanity as a whole...this forum proves theres goo human beings left in the world ready and willing to help out whenever able!!!

THANK YOU!
