Ga/night....Ryedan....Well, I'm off to bed. I'm tuckered out from the last couple of days of not enough sleep.
G'nite Pharts!
Look delicious too.....I'd catch a few, have at it.....get throwing.....Hi old pharts! throwing a few biscuits tonight!
I'm too damm lazy to throw more than one biscuit. I'm still happy with my low carb way of eating. I'm down 31 pounds so far. Have a touch of keto flu today. Hopefully, pickles will rescue me.Look delicious too.....I'd catch a few, have at it.....get throwing.....
Great, Sandi....sounds like a winner...!I'm too damm lazy to throw more than one biscuit. I'm still happy with my low carb way of eating. I'm down 31 pounds so far. Have a touch of keto flu today. Hopefully, pickles will rescue me.
I hope not.Have any snow heading your way, Rich?....
Apparently not.Hope you old pharts are doing well
Mr Juicy is coming along well
So our good friend Jimi is not doing well ???
Evening Old Pharts
Awe thank you Lucy, yes i did something stupid, couldn't get anyone to till my garden for $ so iI gave it a try and been laid up for the last fewHey Jimi - we've been concerned about you young man
Yeah i just couldn't stand it not being done but i am paying for it, dearly.Yep not a real smart thing to do.
But we Old Pharts are that way sometimes.

like me finishing up house exterior a couple days ago. Glad it's done, but damn the pain.Yeah i just couldn't stand it not being done but i am paying for it, dearly.
I have thought about it but i would need like 200 garbage cans to equal what my garden puts outHave you ever considered container gardening with hay?
Just get old garbage cans. drill a few holes in the bottom for drainage, fill with hay or straw, plant and harvest. You can also begin seedlings early by covering with a trash bag, creating green house effect
I did it for years, and just watered with worm tea
The hay eventually turns to compost
The advantage of course, is no stooping, in addition to being portable and you can even garden while sitting if need be
How true that is Sarah and like you I new it had to be done, my sweet little wifey did help with it, good thing or I'd be in a wheelchair. I did wrap my leg with Duck tape oner my knee brace and made it like a cast so it didn't go out on me.like me finishing up house exterior a couple days ago. Glad it's done, but damn the pain.
I have thought about it but i would need like 200 garbage cans to equal what my garden puts out
And we old Pharts hate it when we aggravate our skeletons and joints.
Hard to adjust to handicaps....
I will give it a tryt I have several plastic tubs that should work but I need all the garden space I can get. I don't consider any of the store bought Organic produce true organic because some are sprayed with GMO's to retard ripening so I try to avoid those.Wouldn't hurt to start even if small
They probably don't allow hijacking stuff from your local dump, but ours does, I got about a dozen for free to start mine
I don't have the operation up and running anymore, but it rocks for gardening without aggravating skeletal issues, which is why I started doing it
It looks nice Sarah, you did a great jobthis looks thousands of times better than it did. I think it's been worth every penny, and ouch.
That's why I tried to get one of the neighbor kids to till my garden offered them 50 dollars and i supplied the tiller and gas but the worthless little shits are too lazyWe just have to work smarter and find ways to accomplish what we need without adding insult to injury, lol
Evening Choder, The older I get the more I ask that question (where does all the time go)I been so busy i forgot today was the start of the NFL draft.. followed the first 4 picks then i turned it off..
Didnt realize also it was the NBA playoffs also.. Man where does the time go?
Hope everyone is doing okay!
We hired a guy to do cleanup work. Thanks bastard didn't do any of the work, and called code enforcement on us for the mess we hired him to clean up. I chewed his ass out so bad that he is still scared of me, and code enforcement won't take his calls anymore.That's why I tried to get one of the neighbor kids to till my garden offered them 50 dollars and i supplied the tiller and gas but the worthless little shits are too lazy
And unfortunately have to be often satisfied with accomplishing less than we used to.We just have to work smarter and find ways to accomplish what we need without adding insult to injury, lol

This is good to hear (um, read).Mr Juicy is coming along well
Ummm, to scratch their backs?Wives like to loan out their husbands for many things except the one thing we would enjoy being loaned out for
How would a ladder stabilizer work for you? I use one on our 20 foot extension ladder, especially because I am afraid of heights, so I shake when more than 8 feet up.Ummm, to scratch their backs?
Today was supposed to be "rest and recover" from the last two days, but the wind is supposed to blow a lot this weekend and it was only round 10 mph today, so we had to remove all the storm windows and install the screens. The part that bothered me is that I was using my little 6-foot ladder to do this and at no time was I more than 3 feet off the ground and was shaking a bit, even though Lannie was holding the ladder. Later this summer, I need to do touch-up painting on the whole house and that requires my 20-foot ladder. How the hell am I supposed to manage that?

I have one for the 20-foot ladder, so it is not the ladder shaking that is the problem. I had absolutely no problem being up at roof level a couple years ago when I stripped the whole house and re-painted it. The problem I felt today was that being just 3 feet up today made ME shaky. So why did I suddenly become a weenie?How would a ladder stabilizer work for you?

It's gotta be your nerves. Either that, or the old muscles ain't what they were, or both. I know I got nerve problems. Ain't no denying that.I have one for the 20-foot ladder, so it is not the ladder shaking that is the problem.

I have a home made roll around scaffolding thing for that. rolls on dirt and such and has a 12 ft long walkboard.Ummm, to scratch their backs?

I have a closet full of braces for nearly every part of my body. I wear the lower back brace (girdle) all the time because the lumbar is broken, and occasionally I have to wear these super-duty knee braces to even walk. But under normal circumstances, I don't have to contend with the shakes. That was just downright scary and I have always been one of those "hang off the side of a cliff to get a better picture" kind of guys. Am I truly becoming a real-live Old Phart? Chicken shit...I got me an athletic hip brace from Amazon. It helps with the bursitis and nerve pain when I wear it. I just feel the pain I missed out on when I take it off.
