We bought metal corners for the beds that screw on to 2x6es. They cost $17 per pair at Gardener's Supply, and we are building one 4x8 foot bed. We're using untreated pine, which is cheap cheap cheap and we don;t have to worry about chemicals, and if it rots in 4 years we buy new $3 boards. The dirt will probably cost as much if not more than the bed, especially if we go with composted manure and peat instead of topsoil.
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

Good on you for the loan payoff attempt, Stephanie!
Awesome, flea, thanks. I was looking at those Gardener's Supply corners. Yeah, we need to buy some manure. Our soil is so clay heavy we really need to improve the organic material quantity.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Yesterday was the first furlough day for CA state employees -- and guess was downtown businesses had horrible, terrible no good very bad days. I don't usually read the comments in the paper -- but today , they were worth reading. to sum up: d'uh. Or if you want to be more articulate -- the savings from the furlough is at best going to be a wash.

Okay, I think I committed Facebook. [link]
I dunno. Take me a while to get through all the whozits and privacy settings and whatnots. Is there a good FAQ somewhere?

Oh Liese- I love your name!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Friendicated you, Liese, and recommended your name to a bunch of Buffistas (and to no others), which should make it easier to find people. Unfortunately, I only got through the "E's" before the number of recs I could make ran out...

I did the same thing, amch. Perhaps I should have started with the "E's"

I have been wandering around my apartment turning off the heaters and opening windows. It is, in fact, THAT warm.
Crazy.
Spring!
Also, the postman just delivered the yarn I'm going to use to make this vest so I'm going to cast on for that sometime today.

Oh, and Knitting Nature by Norah Gaughan because (despite not having tried any) I really am intrigued by her designs.

I'm using the yarn in that pattern right now to make wrist warmers--my second knitting project after making 10 scarves for Christmas. The scarves were fairly easy and very relaxing, but I'm not sure I'm going to do anything on 4 needles again soon though. I doubt I will ever be able to attempt something like that vest.
