Just keeping them. If you need bees for your garden, put an ad on Craigslist and see if there is a beekeeper in your area that would like an outyard. Lots of hobbyists need places to put more hives!
Since everyone asks about it, here we go. I'm a beekeeper, and have been for about two years now. It's fun, a little expensive sometimes and nerve wracking at first but I love it. When we bought our historic house, there were bees in the wall. The beekeeper that came and removed them put them...
Tonyb, agreed. I hate the ramp because I personally never need to use it and I trip over it all the time, but hey, it serves a purpose. We also put in handicapped toilets when we remodeled the place, not for mother-in-law but because they are more comfortable!
Thanks for the compliments...
Thanks Connery! I am actually going to take UF's Master Beekeeper test (apprentice level) in the spring! I have no idea where I would post apiary photos on the lounge though. I have three hives in the back yard and three more scattered throughout the neighborhood, and I help care for the club...
Thank you! They are used to us going just a tad over the top. ;)
I had a feeling that was going to come up, and yes...my mother-in-law is in a motorized wheelchair. To make them skid resistant, we simply mixed sand with the same paint we were using to paint the outside of the house. Also...
Thank you! We had a hard time deciding where to put the tree this year, as the spot it occupied the year before now has a large piece of furniture in it... So in the foyer it went, in front of the phone booth. Our neighbors loved that they could see it walking by!
Thanks Rue! I wish it had turned out better. All the closeups with a flash are really harsh. You should see the Christmas pics of the house, they are amazing. Gosh I love my old Craftsman!
The bee pic was when we moved the local bee club hives to a new location, just before Christmas (I was...
Rue, I LOVE that picture of you!
Here is my most recent vintage favorite. The quality is lacking but it really is an amazing photo.
And my favorite recent non-vintage but very Tatum pic...

I did the kohl liner everywhere. Good grief.
Biggest beauty mistake though was accidentally waxing off half an eyebrow. In my infinite early twenties wisdom, I figured I'd wax them both off completely so at least they'd grow in evenly. It worked...
Y'all are making me self conscious now.... I take the dogs out in the morning in my bathrobe and slippers, and usually enjoy most of my coffee on the front porch that way... Said bathrobe covers more than my full length coat, but now I might have to readjust my morning attire!
Lizzie, I think you totally summed it up with that statement. It reminds me of working with my hubby, as we get to travel a lot to some really nice places. As in, you'd never catch me swearing or in jeans at the Waldorf. I can sit around in ragged khakis at home, no makeup and a messy ponytail...
