Bad news or good news? I'm not yet sure.

Our kitchen redo may be coming to a halt. I found out this afternoon via my sister that Ikea stock is low and there might be up to a six month wait. We don't know if it's because manufacturers can't find workers or whether people...

MARILYN Hope there isn't too much of a snag in getting your kitchen finished. Guess you won't know until you go to Ikea and see how long it will take for the cabinets. But, as you said, at least you have time to finish getting rid of things and getting the walls...

Why The Horse may get kicked out of his apartment.

TheHorse @TheHorse (131134) • Walnut Creek, California 13 Jun

As I may have mentioned in the past, I like to live on the edge. One of the horrible sins for which I have been chastised in the past is having a hummingbird feeder hanging over my balcony. Apparently we are not supposed to have...

MARILYN You really are living the life of a rebel according to the rules of the building association. Hopefully they can't see your bird feeder hanging on the inside and maybe your sunflowers will block it

Marlina @marlina (125390) • Canada 13 Jun

MARILYN My Sunday wasn't very eventful but it was a good day (if that makes sense) Too bad you didn't have your camera to get some pictures of your encounters along the trail. I'm sure packing is adding to your daily exercise

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (40811) • Marion, Ohio 18h

So soon I will be going out to pull weeds from between the plants. It is cooler today so that will not be a bad job. There is less weeds this time also. So I should get through the rows pretty fast. There is a possibility of...
