adding wood ash to your garden

well my friends it is my favorite time of the year again. Gardening season, so you will probably be seeing a lot of posts from me about gardening and planting and such.

I remember as a kid every winter my dad would take the askes he cleaned from our fireplace and dump them into our garden spot. Then in spring time when it was time for the garden he would till all that ash into the soil. I never knew why he did it but I knew it wasnt a bad thing because our garden always flourished. I decide to research it a little and here is what I found out. "When wood burns, nitrogen and sulfur are lost as gases, and calcium, potassium, magnesium and trace element compounds remain. The remaining carbonates and oxides are valuable liming agents, raising pH, thus neutralizing acid soils. Soils that are acid and low in potassium benefit from wood ash. However, acid-loving plants such as blueberries, cranberries, rhododendrons and azaleas would not do well at all with an application of wood ash." You can read more about this at The master gardener website Its chock full of info.

On another note tho. I also remember once.. My mom took out ashes from the fireplace that had sit for two days and the next thing we knew our back yard was on fire. So people If you decide to add ash to your garden please be very careful. Those embers can stay hot for days and even if it doesn't look like its hot, a slight breeze can spark warm ashes back up and cause you a lot of trouble you don't want.

where are the tweezers

here is an idea for keeping up with those pesky tweezers, nail scissors, and nail clippers. If you are like me you can never find them when you need them. So here is what I did to keep up with mine and it workds really well..

I hot glued a magnet strip inside my medicine cabinet and I stick them to it. its handy, and no more losing them behind the whatever in the drawer.

dad and the dentist

tomorrow is a big day for me. An all day dentist appointment. I have some extensive work to be done. Im already freaking a little, and found out about an hour ago that my dad is going to drive me instead of my mom. My dad and I have no relationship. The last time I road in a car with my dad it was all I could do to keep from crying the whole time I was in the car with him, and once I got home away from him I dried for hours. For no particular reason. He just sets my nerves on edge. I spent my life trying to get away from him and to be trapped in a car with him even for a short time with no escape is unbearable. Say a prayer. I need prayer.. Im super nervous about the whole ordeal.

My shirt has a smell. Not a bad smell, but a "not my laundry soap" smell and Its irritating me. Its like a perfumy smell.Who has been wearing my shirt and why was it in with my clean laundry but not smelling like it should..

Foam head planter

Still playing with my new toy.. My Bamboo pen tablet. Its pretty interesting. Much easier to et the hang of than I thought it would be. Im still not great with it but I think I can get the hang of it. Here is a little about the foam head planter my kids and I made over the weekend.
