I ruthlessly went through the bookcase in my quilting studio. Top shelf: textbooks from Nursing school. About 14 linear inches. Gone! Bottom...

I have enough clothes to get through 30 years other than jeans-I buy 2 at a time and they last about 18 months. 1 new pair of walking shoes each...

Our area has risen 20% in the last 12 months. Our 1650sf home is up 439% in 29 years. We're not lower middle class 'hood. Our home is barely the...

Killer deal in Marin. Congrats and happy moving!

Yea, without discussion, they took out $100 worth of ornamental grasses and somehow all of my purple coneflower disappeared! They also keep...

:cool: :0! And I think about interest rates being 19% when we bought our first home:( 60k $943. 2.26%? buys $247,500.

Fire has not affected apple harvest in the Northwest.......yet. We've had fresh apples for a few weeks already.

State dependent. Here, code is smoke alarm outside each bedroom. That's it.

This last week I've been strolling through my remaining books (hubster doesn't read on paper so they are all mine). I've reread a few and put in the...

Gee, a mild 191 today. Grateful not be in Portland where it's down to 350!

I'm sorry! My neighbors know I grow organically. They use Round Up on weeds just 8 feet away from one of my raised beds. >:( (We have "dirt"...

167 today and bad enough. House just reached 69 degrees and it's 90 outside. Our attic fan is set to go on at 90 and it has not. Ambient temp...

>:(:0! (words escape me!)

I've watched my in-laws do this. SIL and her 3 kids got damn near everything they ever saved. At 81, FIL still works full-time and at 80 MIL works...

We are 197 today and have yet to see actual sunlight. We've had 500s in past fires......it is awful. I hope nothing strenuous requires your...

I ended GIVING mine away after 6m. I couldn't even get $100 for it. There were dozens on CraigsList!

I joined the Facebook no-buy group for my section of town. I have given away: compost bin w/lid, 6 houseplant pots, a near full bag of Iams catfood...
