Jeepers

No way would I register. Enjoyed the youtube too.

CONGRATULATIONS! I just ordered it. I'm too busy to read right now. I want to wait until I can relax with a cuppa something without interuptions. I know I'll love it as much as the first one! I'm so proud of you.

Great to see you back. We are suffering from the heat and lack of rain in the midwest too. My lawn has been brown all summer so far.

Glad to see you posting. Of course you have been missed!

Thanks Drumrunner. I downloaded them both.

Yesterday was a beautiful day. The highs in the 70's with a nice breeze. Today the bottom is about to fall out. Summer is returning with a few days in the 90's coming up. Ugh. My son took this week off from work for a vacation. HAH! He came over here everyday so far working in my yard. He removed about 50---- 22 year old barberries from my back yard and 4 huge arborvite trees. The barberries have stickers and were horrible. He got the roots and all. Bless him. I had the shrubs removed from the front yard so the rest of his 'vacation' will be spent replanting and mulching. I'm sure he will be glad to go back to work and away from me. I didn't ask him to so all of this but I sure do appreciate it and owe him big time. I told him he's back in the will. Edited because he didn't remove 5022 bushes from my yard. Nor were they 5022 years old. They were 50 bushes 22 years old.

Trudy, I don't poke holes in mine but you can with a sharp knife. I use two pieces per tray because one piece won't fit the entire thing. Actually, it's about a piece and a fourth of another one. I put a piece of wax paper on the tray and run my finger around the edge/rim and around the hole to make an impression for a cutting guide. Then I remove the paper and cut around the marks I made. Then I take a smaller piece and make the marks around the rest of the rim. The center hole is already done from the first larger piece. I have the two pieces overlap about an inch. I use the same paper numerous times especially if I'm drying the same thing over and over. Sometimes I can use the old paper for a cutting guide but I find it's usually easier to just start anew using the finger marking and cutting method. Edited to add: If using plastic screen stuff I'd make sure it wasn't made in China. Just my opinion.

Good to know. Thanks reporting back!

I tried that a couple of years ago but by the time I got the screen cut out in the circles to fit the trays, the smell was really strong! It had a 'factory' sort of smell to it. Maybe there are different kinds but the stuff I bought smelled so bad I wouldn't use it.

I've done the same thing with hamburger. It made me feel so funny...not the meat but the fact that I didn't notice it. I tossed it.

I use wax paper to keep peas and corn from falling through. Actually, I always use wax paper on my trays now. It keeps things from falling through and also keeps the trays clean. Sometimes, without the wax paper, the sweet peppers will wrap around the tray slats and it's hard to get them loose.

You are just too close to the situation to be effective. I'm glad you are stepping back. Even with the best intentions, sometimes you have to let go and let the professionals do what they do best. Wishing you peace...soon!

Sea views....sigh. Am so happy for you though!

Happy birthday Madison and Linda Lou too!

And Beagles. God love em all. Glad to see you back ANewMe!!!!

Two weeks!?!?!? Have a good time.

Welcome back!

It's 90 deg. here today. We normally don't get in the 90's until the end of July first of Aug. Looks like it's gonna be a hot dry summer here. And I have a huge fly buzzing around my head that I can't get rid of. Looks like a buzzard circling.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Darn, sorry Vic. They only stay free for a short time. If I see it offered again I'll post it. They seem to cycle often.

I'm not sure now why I downloaded this. Probably because it was free. Or I thought it was about mammograms. Anyway, it is a really fun read and may help with a difficult word to spell. It gives a word and then an anagram to help remember how to spell it. Then it gives a clever sentence using the anagram words. Examples of some of the words... Mortgage got a germ Acquittal a cat quilt Aspirin i sprain Arithmetic i chart time And My all time favorite: Diarrhea heard air It's a short book, I think 100 or so different 'memograms' but I hope they come out with some more. After all of that, I hope it's still free! It is right now. http://www.amazon.com/Memograms-Anagrams-Hard---Spell-ebook/dp/B006KXJ82C/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1340016366&sr=1-1&keywords=memogram

Mt.Rider, I thought of you when I saw it.

Glad to see you back!
