RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

I cant work early cause Im sleeping!!! and we get gnats and biting flies here. so when they get too bad I go in and my sister finishes since they dont like to bite people with alcohol in their blood!!! She cant work outside unless she has a drink first! She gets energy from it!!! I just get lazy!! LOL So... its the middle of the day if I want it done! Should have done it before the heat started but wasnt feeling up to it! Now I got to pay the price but I want it to look nice!! I figure next year it will look awesome by the time everything starts to really grow nice. Bought some hollyhocks to plant along the side of the house and Im transplanting my mint and catnip to a little bed over there I made for them. Had 1 blueberry plant survive so Im putting it over by the azaleas since the people that redid our water pipes killed 2 and now theres a gap! I'll take before and after pictures. Its going to look so pretty! Unless my sister runs over it with the lawn mower!! LOL. I stacked blocks around it so she cant but who knows with her!!
I have a project coming up. The trellace that holds that beautiful vine that we talked about last year (and again I forget what kind of vine it is EEK!) I had a pic of it googling vines. Anyway, it broke the trellace. So Sam can build another one but I do not know what will happen when we try to put the vine on the new trellace. That vine is about 12 years old and has really thick branches and I kept weaving them in and out. May have to cut it down somewhat. Have to wait and see. But that vine is hearty. It will sprout up over 10 ft. away with a small shoot out of the ground. I keep pulling them out or I will have a vineyard. bbl

Just use some soft yarn and loosely tie the branches and it should start attaching to the new trelis. I just bought some of the same vine at walmart for $3!!! Gotta figure out where to put it!

They are formed right around the whole trellace and I wove it in and out for years. I trim it all the time. He has so many projects going that I do not know when he will get to it. If it falls down completely he will have to do it right away. Right now the vine is holding up the leaning trellace of Manahawkin.
I have to take the Osteporosis pill today. I hate it as it makes me sick and I skipped last week but I have to do it. If I keep getting sick from it (tried all the others and they make me worse) then I have to get the yearly iv which will not be too bad I do not think. cheaper also. I printed your pm.

I have to take these vitamin D pills twice a week and they kinda make me a little sick. Im trying to get more exposure to the sun. Dr said the calcium was leaching out of my bones so they may have to put me on something for that when I get my parathyroid back to normal. Take another test in 3 months!
