I have had an ( A.F.)erratic heart beat today which leaves me unable to move about far, I used the time in to visit all the blogs I link to which as been nice, and I got a few more post sorted for spare. I feel fine now, the beating as settled down at last but I still a tad tired.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-72536401419364597352007-11-10T14:11:00.000-05:002007-11-10T14:11:00.000-05:00Thanks Abraham, we too have gone through much of t...Thanks Abraham, we too have gone through much of the mulching process…it is amazing actually simple it is to make good soil. <BR/><BR/>So you watched the game, NEAT…glad they pulled it out, many silly errors were made, but…in the end. These next three games are crucial for us to win. Cincinnati, U Conn and Pit [will be the 100th Backyard Brawl], wow it will be good football for sure. I am ready<BR/><BR/>Tene do e-mail that if you would, not sure I have heard that one…<BR/><BR/>Thanks IMAC…DeeMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775898919722565676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-8632049014532315532007-11-10T05:06:00.000-05:002007-11-10T05:06:00.000-05:00I wanted to leave a comment yesterday but somehow ...I wanted to leave a comment yesterday but somehow missed doing it. Your post reminded me that when we first moved to this new house in 1962, there wasn't even any fishing worms. The ground had been scraped clean, so to speak. So we used old lined drapery panels and went to the side ditches along side the park and filled them with leaves we raked up. I don't remember how many years we did this but a lot. When we got home we dumped the drapery lining load of leaves on the lawns and mowed over them with the lawn mower. We also dumped bags full on the new flower beds and around the plants. Did all of that for a number of years and now we have the richest soil around. Your post reminded me of that whole time period.<BR/><BR/>We never bag up lady bugs or lady beetles but let them go and lots of them hibernate each year in my shop or shed. In the spring they are dozens at a time on the glass windows and I capture them in a dustpan by holding it up to the glass and on it and then move the dust pan up the glass and tney fall off into it and I dump dust pans full outside.<BR/><BR/>We used to have three large bins for making compost. Got plans for them somewhere and built them and tried to make compost but it never worked for us. We tried everything.<BR/><BR/>So, now, I will collect whatever I collect and put it in a pile with some fine dirt and forget it for at least one season or year and when I am ready to use it the soil it makes just melts. It is the easiest way for me at my age of 73 years.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes, in an effort to do away with more lawn grass, since it has been a summer-long drought here, I plow or go over the area of grass with the roto tiller (we have a tiny one) which kicks up the grass and mixes it in with the dirt. So I rake out as much of the grass as I can and that has all gone into a pile stacked up along the board fence behind my shop. It is out of the way and making compost.<BR/><BR/>I do enjoy your post.<BR/><BR/>I also watched West Virginia play a football game on television the other evening. And they pulled out a win at the end. It was one of the most exciting college football games I have seen.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.oldmanlincoln.com/" REL="nofollow"> oldmanlincoln </A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-58179300156922831692007-11-09T22:36:00.000-05:002007-11-09T22:36:00.000-05:00LOVED this one - especially the lyrics...

Title - "When October Goes" - if you've not heard it, I'll email you the song (I have it on CD) as well as the lyrics. Let me know...<BR/><BR/>Was great seeing you today at the shop!Tene Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04193191262689457310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-4635334338198512002007-11-09T11:51:00.000-05:002007-11-09T11:51:00.000-05:00Interesting info and great shotsInteresting info and great shotsimachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14533409255215440113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-66869120385808598262007-11-09T10:37:00.000-05:002007-11-09T10:37:00.000-05:00AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww O.W.T.<BR/><BR/>Shucks and Darn<BR/><BR/>add blushing ')DeeMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775898919722565676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25716517.post-78874619810108815952007-11-09T10:32:00.000-05:002007-11-09T10:32:00.000-05:00What a great tip...
