I don’t like ant bites!
That picture of the bee and sunflower is so awesome!
Me either, nasty little buggers. The bites are bright red, hard and itch like crazy. Not something I want to experience again.

Thank you! 💗 I'm glad I had my phone and didn't miss the opportunity. 💗🐝🌻

As you all know, part of being homesteaders & homeowners is house maintenance. It's not all about our livestock and yards.

I had to put on my plumbers pants today. Now, before you laugh, they were pulled all of the way up...🤣

Thankfully it was a simple fix and the septic wasn't backing up in the basement... not fun!

Impressive.

I don't do plumbing. I hate plumbing.

I can rewire a lamp!

I don't like it much either.
I own an electrician for my wiring needs. 😁
Plumbing, I call someone. Kudos to you for doing your own!
All I had to do was remove the p trap and clean it out. It's easier for me to get under the sink nowadays than it is for Dale, it's hard for him to get down and back up. So I try to do what I can to help him. He never hires anyone. He doesn't have to, since he's taught me how...lol One day I'm sure that will change for me too.
