Sounds like you'll be busy for awhile! It seems like the honey do list never ends.

Still working on the house; but now my who is expecting our 3 rd child has already said she wants to start " planning next years garden " ! I have already told her it will be bigger & better then this year , how ever i think we will have bitter mellon 'till this time 2020 ( canned, pickled & frozen) tomatoes till next year & chili peppers for probably the next 5 years ( frozen , pickled, canned & dried) plus we are still getting fresh !from our potted plants . I think our baby will be born with a red Butt & farting flames ! Last years garden was almost 1/3 of our back yard , this year ( because of a neighbor ) the garden trellises are going to be taller & we are also planting more sun flowers & corn again , along with our usual squash , zucchini, cucumbers , egg plant , peas , plus we are adding carrots, string beans , asparagus & more chili & bell peppers , plus , what ever will grow in the space left over ,
I think my wife wants to wear me out , so we can't " play "as much ! Yeah right

If it wasn't raining all weekend I would be planting next years garden! I put my garlic and onion sets in during the fall.

Congrats and good luck with your 3rd child. We had our first this summer and I had enough trouble keeping up with the harvesting and freezing. Couldn't imagine having 2 more in the mix!

wood pellets are expensive, look into anthracite coal, i heat my place with anthracite, costs me about 1000 a season to heat my 500 sq foot room to 70 and keep the 3200 sq ft garage at 55 all winter.......no smell, no smoke.......no fuel like an old fuel!

It seems like the honey do list never ends.

Anytime I mark 1 thing as done off the "honey do" list, I see Mrs. Cubby writing on 5 more......

Question

Well I know the honey do list never ends..... But I wish she could only change her mind in the planning stages of things not when they are completed ...... Like can you take these 2 , 27x45" windows out & replace them with one 72x 41" window?
Keep in mind this is a bean pole/ balloon framed house from the 1840's , no headers, no fire cats , studs go from the foundation to the roofing timbers with out any breaks !
Time for creative thinking , .... She says this will be done !

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
