Jeff's gone into hydroponics in a big way and has quite a set up in his living room. He wanted to set up in ours coz we have a large southern exposure but Josie put her foot down...loudly...and said no. So he took an old shop light out of our pantry and is working on rewiring that to be a 'grow light'. His basil and peppers have sprouted but neither of us have had any luck getting our heirloom Stevia seeds to sprout! And what I paid for those!!
Ever see the underside of a car? My car has been in the shop since last Wednesday, something called a 'cradle' had to be replaced in the rear end...boy, it had literally rotted away!! And something in a front wheel casing had broken off. I couldn't believe how rusty things are under there!! Carl and the mechanics at Cole's managed to get the rusted pieces off the car without further damage and replaced with this used parts that they cleaned and sprayed making them look new. Only 1 bolt was stubborn and wouldn't come off so we're waiting for a replacement for that. I do not want to see the bill for this job. But if the Subuaru keeps going for another couple of years.... The thing is the car runs great, it's the suspension that's rusting out!! In the meantime, my cousin John has lent me his father's car...a Nissan. (We keep losing it in Walmart parking lot and have to look thru the windows to find the right car!!) When I talked to Fran yesterday he just laughed!
Time to get working!!
