Yes, you are right about cuttings being the norm, and I did some of those, too, but I could not resist the seeds. And I don't think my cuttings made it, although it's too early to tell.

Garden rave--last summer I planted some tulip tree seeds because I had pruned the tree and had a bunch of seeds, and today I saw that I have about four tiny trees coming up in the 5 gallon bucket...
Very nice picture, happystuff! I am working on a White Mountain one that has WWII posters--it's a thousand pieces and slow going as there are so many mini pictures within it.
Those are so neat!
Ohio is so beautiful. I went to high school two years in Pepper Pike before moving to New Jersey. It was an idyll. Everytime I drive through Ohio I remember how gorgeous it is. I also think of...
I love your win-win, TMS. Hoping for a shrinking situation, prayers for healing.

That's funny, I did the same with this picture months ago, but then said alright, I'll offer the last thing they countered withm so this time we had a deal.
I do realize that I still have most of...
I think my basic programming was to save, save, save, and now I am finding that I want to spend on things that are not necessary, and then I feel guilty.
So yesterday I bought a painting on ebay...
I wrap mine in the receipt and keep it in the car. A rubber band around it would be even better.
I burned a grocery bag full of files from my parents papers. There are still 2 boxes full, but there used to be more, so it's good to keep chipping away.
It looks just like Galena!
Cottage law was a big deal where we lived in Michigan because of Lake Michigan and I guess it is in Wisconsin, too--check out this article about family cottages, interesting:

It took me a minute to get that--you mean like The Devil and Daniel Webster?
That does sound like a good deal. Two thoughts--do you have to pay interment on top of that? In Savannah and in Portland, Maine, the two places I looked at, the price was low but you paid on top of...
I just remembered my favorite character--it was the Akita Kato. If only he could have testified.
That price estimate seems a little low, IL. I paid 5500 for three niches, each niche capable of holding two sets of ashes. The niches are outdoors but in a wall. I think my bil paid around 1500...
It seems to be legal in some states, not in others, so check that out. In some places the funeral home will arrange interment in the same plot--I know they offered that at one of the cemeteries I...
I had not thought about an irrevocable trust. I looked it up and it looks like that works but you have to do it before the 5 year lookback period:

I'm glad I'm not him having to meet up with Nicole, although supposedly, all that gets worked out somehow.
The books I ordered arrived and I opened mine and couldn't even start it. I think I will try to do one page a day. Or maybe week? I was going to fill in the location of my burial plot that I...
More about leaving houses to children--if you want to do that then you have to have enough resources to pay for your care up until death, or be lucky enough to die before you need to go into a home...
Yes, if Medicaid is paying for someone's care in a facility, then the house is sold to pay back the money to Medicaid, that's how it works. It's not really them cleaning up debt; it's more like a...
That is cool. I buried my loved ones where my mom and I were born, but now it's super expensive there, a resort area, so I like to think I own a little real estate there, a final home.
