My sister, Jeanne, posted on her blog about the problems she's having with moles and voles. Well, I will not be outdone! I have serious squirrel problems. I've actually seen the little f*****s carry off my tulips---not to mention the tile they've chipped off the pool. Top this Jeanne: This is what it looks like from a distance. Here are a couple of close-ups: Here's the other side that has been completely decimated: On a positive note, the squirrels haven't discovered my woodland shade garden.
The squirrels dug up my tulip bulbs & I don't know why because they just left them. A guy at my work got a spray off the internet to keep geese out of his yard & it works. Maybe you can find a spray repellent for squirrels. Or you need to keep the bebe gun handy!
Yes, there is a spray, but it washes off with each rain---or in my case---every time the sprinkler runs. The BB gun is broken. I'm thinking of trying moth balls.
I taught organizational classes for scrapbooking around the country---from organizing your space and supplies to your pictures, planning pages and getting ready for a scrapbook retreat.
15 years ago, I developed an in-depth photo organization workshop called "Making the Most of My Memories." Once the pictures were organized in a way that made it easy to access any photo at a moment's notice, "A Year of Memories" was the next natural step.
Each month, I assign a topic and provide a kit of materials. The next month each person shares their layout with the group. It's so much fun to see how everyone interprets the theme and uses the same materials---yet each layout is completely different. At the end of the year, we each have a completed album. We're on year 15 now.
