sweetpea3829 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 In other news, good things may come to those who procrastinate. I was a lazy beekeeper this winter, since I lost both the hives in the fall. I never got around to cleaning up the old hives. Both hives are currently the subject of great interest by the bees around here. One of them has bees going in and out of it as if they own the place. I don't know if they are scouting, or if there is already a swarm in there. Too late in the day to check, but you bet I'll be watching it in the next few days to see what they do with it! I'm jealous of your beehives! We all took a beekeeping class last spring...husband, kids and I. But as much as DH and I want to start with bees, we determined that the cost was too great for now. We need hobbies that will generate an income and, with the current state of bees dying off as rapidly as they have been, it would end up costing us in the long run. Plus...we don't really have much time. But one day! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I really don't know what these bees are up to. But they sure were not happy with me getting too close to that hive. I set up a couple of other potential hive bodies for bees that are scouting right now. We are already seeing swarms, and I'm not the only person with bees around here. The chance of me having a swarm at least swing by the place is pretty good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 In case anyone was wondering, I look ridiculous in workout clothes at this point. Me too, and I'm not even pregnant. Which reminds me that I dreamed last night that I was on a bus tour of Vienna/Austria. We made a short stop at an almost empty Christmas village market and I was trying to figure out the cost of these nice jams. And then I discovered they accept credit cards. And then I realized my tour bus was leaving. And then I realized I was 7 months pregnant and probably shouldn't go sprinting down the highway after the bus. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professormom Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Yay or nay? Matt and I are in disagreement. Eta: I think it's gorgeous but I don't like the mileage. I've never bought a van before. I would be a nay. To me, that seems high. Over 100k is just too much mileage for me. They usually go downhill pretty fast at that point. I think I would be inclined to save more and keep looking to get an executive driven or lower mileage option. But that is just my opinion lol. Good luck. It would be a Slache-van, nanananananana.

Professormom Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Is this 9th grade? What is a class at Roman Roads? Online? Never heard of it. I would NOT do a three credit class - too much wrapped up in one class if it is not a good fit, plus limiting just because of the sheer amount of work involved. Science would be a good one to outsource so the charter school gets my vote. Is the online class the AoPS accelerated pace one? Or the WTMA one? What is CLRC? That looks heavy to me, but we are slower paced folks here with a very heavy sports elective. Also, neither of my 9th graders is typical, for very different reasons. I agree on the three credit and had the same ? on which online class. Physics could be Conceptual or you could try Wilson Hill. That was my number 2. Hmmm, I will keep thinking.

hornblower Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 What's your mileage and how much repair work have you put into it? 220,000 km. I'm too lazy to try to convert it. It has needed nothing other than wear parts & those, not frequently. There's a timing belt thing that needs repairing at some point & that was a bit pricey. That was about it. It just runs. We service it at the dealer & told them we were thinking of buying a new one & the service manager said "why? You know this thing is going to keep running, right?" I lol'd because I thought the sales guy would be ticked to hear the service manager talking us out of a new one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) I have a confession to make... I just binge watched the entire first season of "Bosche" (gritty police drama on Amazon Prime; a little too much language and violence for my taste, but doggone it, a very compelling story) in 5 days. I feel a little hung over. But I hate it when the entire series is just one big long storyline. Well, in this case 2 story lines. Things don't get neatly wrapped up at the end of an episode.

We are NOT getting one of the above dogs. We have enough of a problem keeping Jonah from chasing Mennonites on bicycles. Pretty sure that kind of dog would EAT a Mennonite on a bicycle.

She is taking Latin formally for the first time this year after doing it gently at home and with a tutor. She's made the transition well and wants to continue. The desire for Russian is two-fold. One, she needs a modern foreign language. And two, she wants to go to a really cool language school for a summer camp when she's 15 that is for studying security languages. Russian was the only one that sounded interesting. :laugh: She'll be taking a course called "Young Russian" over the summer, so we'll see how it goes. If she hates it, it'll get jettisoned!

I had my heart set on a Sienna or Odyssey, but I could totally do a Chrysler. Not a $20,000 one though, unfortunately. Thanks! I may be mistaken but...I believe the Chrysler T&C had the SAME issues the Grand did. Poorly designed brakes, poorly designed tranny. And they burn oil something fierce. My dad (a former mechanic) bought a brand new one in 2010 and got rid of it two years later. Chrysler/Dodge told him it was normal to have to put a quart of oil in every two weeks. Uh...no, it's not. That's one of the reasons we got rid of our 2008. The writing was on the wall, and it was just a matter of time before it had a REAL serious engine issue, aside from the burning oil and umpteen brake issues it had. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person in the world with a job who drives a $5,000 car. Paid off. With dents. Three carseats across the back of a Nissan, booyah.

We haven't had a new car since the 1 yr old Sebring I bought shortly after college. We outgrew it a couple of years later, when kid 3 made his surprise appearance. Having hit hard financial times, we ended up in a 1987 GMC Vandura that was given to us. That thing was a BEAST. But let me tell you...God humbled me through that vehicle. It ran...it got us where we needed to go. It was full of issues and it was gross...but it met our needs and I learned to be grateful with less...lol. Incidentally, we were in RI at the time and the new van we had purchased was in PA...so we loaded that old girl up...drove her down to PA with four kids, all between the ages of 9 months and 4...and that Vandura....man, she gave up the ghost, I kid you not...RIGHT IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE DEALER. It was like..she knew. Her time was done. We pulled into the parking lot and she just died right there...lol. Yes, I'm sad because our car would have been paid off in a year and a half. My husband really, really wants a van and I know that if we get a good one we won't need a new car for 10 years. We keep telling ourselves this. But it never works out that way. Honestly...at this point, now that DH is working so close to home, I'm seriously tempted to lease. We can never save enough money to buy a decent-enough vehicle outright...always needing to finance a couple of thousand (never much...but enough to have a payment, kwim). Then...we end up needing to dump money into it because...older vehicle. Between the repair costs we inevitably have to dump into these older vehicles, plus the monthly car payment...I am beginning to question whether I'd do better on a lease. Brand new car...under warranty....no repair headaches. I wouldn't do it unless I was positive we'd come out ahead of the game....and so far, my research has been confusing at best. Just looked up the Kelley Blue Book value of my van because I was curious, and it is $4,500-5,000. Anyone who bought it for that would be getting a great-running car with cosmetic issues (chipped paint, stained carpets) and one sliding door that did not open from the inside (but opens from the outside and with the key fob). It has plenty of life left in it. Not bad! We have never yet received remotely close to KBB for any vehicle we've ever owned. It just doesn't happen for us. Not in trade-in value. Not in private sale value. We ended up donating our Sebring to a family from church that needed a running vehicle. Dealers would only give us $1k for trade-in despite it showing as being worth $4k for trade-in, in the condition it was in (it needed a control arm or something...nothing major though). And nobody wanted to buy it in a private sale because of the control arm. So we gave it away to a friend. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
