Tips and Tricks

Yes it can be hard work and frustrating as hell. Bad seed won't germinate. A late frost kills your seedlings. Insects are having a party and your garden is no more. You fertilize to make it grow and all you do is stunt its growth or worse make them die. You're off for a few days to return and find most everything withered and dead. You forget and leave the sprinklers on and when you return all there is but mold and rot. Come harvest, your mouth starts to water and then an early frost, and all was for nothing. Even the bees won't cooperate and you have to pollinate by hand.

Sometimes you just want to throw in the towel and give up.

Game called on account of weeds!

But then it can also be so calming and relaxing as you feel the earth in your hands, and till and cultivate and watch it grow.

It gives you such pleasure that few if anything can compare. Through all the effort and strain and frustration and feeling of defeat; you still have such fond feelings for that little patch of earth that you cannot help but do it again next year.

Those of you who garden know of what I am talking and how these extreme opposites can exist side by side.

Each tip I have will require some description, as each of us has different conditions to work with. The tips I share are based on mine, my hope is that they might be useful to you.

The following is the same on all pages and if you have already read it, you need not bother reading it again.

My daughter has Cerebral Palsy. I do not say this for sympathy. I have created a site devoted to helping people with disabilities find resources they need to navigate DSHS, DDD, SSI and others including the school system. What I need from you is to let people with disabilities know of the site and get them to send me information of their local and State agencies that fulfill the needs of the disabled. I want to make this information available to all for free on my site. I just need the help of either a person with a child having cerebral palsy or any disability or a concerned person who can donate their time to help seek out this information of advocacy groups for the disabled.

I am spending what time and resources I have but I need help.

Please check out the site and if you can contribute with any information please do so. Check out the site I made for families with children who have CP Click http://www.cpfsn.org

Through having to take our daughter to therapy and doctors appointments we have come to know many parent's of children with Cerebral Palsy. In the course of our attempts to advocate for our daughter and upon hearing of the same troubles others have had doing the same we decided to use some web space and try to do something about it. We want very much to be able to provide relevant information for every locality across the country so that people seeking information do not have to spend days in search of the information they need. We would welcome any help you could give us. Any links you can supply for either .gov's or private agencies that provide for or advocate for the Disabled would be appreciated. We would like to break them down by Federal, State, County, City and Schools. Please visit www.cpfsn.org and see if there is anything you can contribute to grow the site into a useful and relevant site for people with disabilities specially those with Children who have Cerebral Palsy.

Also if you feel you would like to contribute a recipe or a pattern or any household tips and tricks or some other useful information to be posted on this site you would be welcomed to do so. Not wanting to infringe on any copyright I must ask that these be original to you or someone you know who gives their permission or in the public domain.
