Hello busy day here never made it here earlier.
Cathy, we make waffles once in a great while. Any leftover batter we make them up and put in refrigerator or freezer. Then DH gets a couple out and pops them in the toaster. Works just fine. I like mine with a bit of butter but no syrup.
Lucylee, what kind of laundry soap are you using? I don't think mine makes much suds at all. Are you using a powder or a liquid? I use mostly the Arm and H ammer brand powder, and I put the scoop in a container with hot water and stir that up for a while till it's mostly dissolved. That's what my manual said to do. I always thought powder cleaned better than liquid. About your purchases, shoes sound good if you've tried them before; remember loose fitting pants aren't the style any more. I wouldn't wear leggings to a wedding (I wouldn't wear them anywhere actually) but too 'sloppy' slacks and you'd look out of style...gift for medical student...haven't a clue. Think about your basket of wishes for a bit then order them. I usually decide I don't need whatever I've been thinking about!
Blessed, too bad you didn't get your drip water system going. I've been watering so much, my bill came today and I'm afraid to open the envelope! Hope your mouth isn't hurting from the dentist work.
Nancy, never had those onions but we get mild sweet onions, vidalia, from Georgia and they are quite mild. Have you ever had them?
Harriet, wondering about Tobias. What kind of cat is he...he sounds like a wonderful companion.
Forced myself to go outside and plant all the plants I brought home. I did 7 out of 8. DH went out and started the 8th, the biggest hardest one to do. We have a deep hole in the concrete drive between the shop and the reg. garage doors right up at the building. The shop driveway is lower than the house garage and DH did the landscaping like this...not sure why...but it also has a pipe into it so rain water will drain from the top drive into this spot and not run down the bottom drive. And then I'd forgotten but he stacked up concrete blocks in there to make a step. But whole thing was dangerous. I was always scared someone would drive into it. A big weedy fern grew itself in there. I went out and helped; we removed the blocks, blew out all the leaves, removed that invasive fern, planted the bush in there. It looks way better. I asked about getting some little edging for all around the edge, like a small picket fence sort of. DH thought that was a good idea so I'll be looking for that. Also some sort of statue in there like a metal wading bird or something... I have a place I'll go to look.
Wow, this is the best our yard has looked in a long time. I sure worked hard on it.
Who knew?!?!
ugh... And I can certainly see that it is easier to do on a weekly basis. I also s/s the toilets in the two baths that we use. (It had not been a month on those chores, thankfully!)
