I'm going to order some blueberry bushes next week. These are two year old plants that are guaranteed to produce fruit this year. I'm looking forward to fresh blueberries. I'm going to wait at least another two to four weeks to buy tomatos, cucumbers, and other plants for my garden. I'm just...

...saying, "We're on our way there." By we, he means he and his girlfriend. They're about four and a half hours from here. I talked him into staying in a hotel when they get here because they're not going to be here until around midnight and I don't want to sleep downstairs because it's too cold.

In southeastern Indiana, we're experiencing what they call the "roller coaster" days of late winter/early spring. By this term, they mean that one day it will be in the mid to high forties and then the next day will be in the twenties with snow. Right now, we have temperatures in the high...

Because I've been reading the thread about no more personal choice exemptions for vaccinating children, I decided to as this question. You see, I caught both measles and mumps from the vaccinations when I was a kid and gave them to both my sisters who had also been vaccinated. I know that was...

I have to tell you all how much I appreciate them. I called Jill, at work, today to ask her if her son could bring my trash can up from the driveway to the front porch, wait for me to put my trash in it and then take it back down to the end of the driveway. I have six inches of snow in my yard...

The forecasters are predicting 4 to 6 inches of snow for my area and more for the people that live south of me. The high temperature predicted for today is 18 degrees with a wind chill of -6 degrees. None of my dogs are staying out for long during the day. And, I've already got dinner in the...

...want to meet at the Denny's in Shelbyville on 2/11 around 8 PM? I have to drive my nephew up to the Indianapolis Greyhound station that day and, depending on weather and traffic, I should be back to Shelbyville around 8 PM on my way back home. I will give my cell phone number to anyone who...

Bybee got my pick, today. Here's her post. :thumb: :first:

Thunder's Muse gets my pick today for this post she made yesterday. Wtg, TM! Too bad that some other people couldn't have learned the same lessons that you have.

Angel4Truth gets my POTD for this post. I couldn't have stated my own thoughts any better than she did. :first:

Here's something I never thought would happen. Serpentdove receives my pick today! :first:

Psalmist gets my pick, today, for this post telling why he supports TOL. Well done, Psalmist! :BRAVO:

Delmar gets my POTD, today, for this comment on gun violence.

Wow! That time of year again? It doesn't seem like it's been a year since the last one. Before I give my list, I have to nominate a thread for Nori's top thread of the year 2012. In this thread, you can see method to the madness that so many see in some of TOL's members. I actually gave...

Really? They didn't change my mind at all. I still see Romney and Obama as being the same. I am not going to vote for either of them because there is no huge difference between the two of them. That doesn't mean that I'm not going to vote, though. Now, I know that some of you will say...

I'm posting a menu for the dates October 2, 2012 through October 16, 2012 (We always eat out on the first and fifteenth of the month, when I pay bills and/or go shopping.). Hopefully, it will help me to save money shopping. :) I'm posting a tentative menu here and will work with it throughout...

Shasta makes an excellent point here about child molesters. As the mother of a molested child (and the ex-wife of a child molester), I agree with your wife on the effects of child molestation and what the punishment should be for molesters.

Today's pick goes to Spitfire for this response in Traditio's thread about women dressing conservatively. I totally agree with you on this part. I've noticed the same thing in a lot of Trad's threads. And, while I hate to speak badly about a lot of women, this is true as well. I've noticed...

I usually just pick one post for my POTD. Today, I'm picking a thread and several posts in it (made by several people). And, although I think the thread was posted to antagonize a lot of people here, I think the poster's intent backfired on him/her. My pick is the thread Open rebuke is better...

I don't agree with everything Nang says. But, she nailed it here. :first:
