Well, I wouldn't know. There are certainly a lot of bad apples in every field. It sucks for the truly compassionate ones who work really hard to take care of the worst part of our lives.

That's the way it is in England under socialized medicine. The sick, the old, and the disabled get pushed away from the table because there's not enough money and budgets keep getting cut.

OMM: Learning how to grow a small garden and planning one out. Thank God both of my parents grew up on farms!!

This is awesome. The house/property I live on was originally my grandparent's. My grandfather had the greenest thumb I've ever known and he grew almost everything you can think of on the 12 acres. Farming was in his blood. Unfortunately, that skill wasn't passed down to my father or any of us kids and each garden I've tried growing has failed. I'm assuming you mean a small vegetable garden you're thinking about? If so, and if you master the dilemma of bugs destroying the garden, let me know the secret. Lol. I'm not even kidding. The bug issue was the number #1 reason I was never successful. But, it is Florida and our climate is very tropical, so the bugs are a force to be reckoned with most of the time. Hopefully it won't be nearly as bad for you.

We should chat about this sometime! I've been wanting to do this at my house!

Ermagersh. CF Gardening Club in our future, y'all.

Yes, I am thinking a small vegetable garden. I already have it planned out, except for the bug issue but I am about to do some research on that. I am not as far south as Florida but bugs can still be a real pest. So far the only thing I have successfully grown in the past was tomatoes. I had to "fight" off the birds and tarpons (aka box turtles) to harvest them.

Feel free to make a thread. I'll chime in where I can. I am by no means a gardening guru and this will be the first real, even though small, garden I am attempting.

Looks like I didn't break my foot after all. No fractures, according the the x-rays.




Oooh, what’s your French press like? Is it fast to make coffee that way? Does it taste awesome?

I usually just drink coffee from a drip coffee maker.

I have a Laroma 8 cup Cafe Classic. It isn't exactly fast, but the coffee is awesome. Highly recommended.


Strong and with just cream.

Nice. Now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever had coffee that's too strong.

I'm trying to cut down on the sugar. Sometimes, I go without, only to end up having a sugary drink later.
