I am 72 years young - when need be, I just plot down on my behind and scooch (is that a word?) when gardening and working in flower beds. Thank goodness, I just keep an empty 5 gallon bucket turned upside down so I have a support when I need to stand back up. LOL
@sherylwickenheiser25828 ай бұрын
I have a little cart thing that is on wheels and hold my tools I scoot around on.

Getting down is never the problem, it's getting back up. I plan accordingly.

@dvssayer56217 ай бұрын
The bucket is a great idea! I use a small plastic stool bucket is a bit too high for ground work. But just right for some things. Getting up is the problem...I never thought that would happen to me...something happens to the legs!

Mary, I have been following you for a while now. But aging as I am, I seem to need to have a sit and rest for a bit. This has led me to binge watching your channel. I fear the day when I run out of your episodes to watch. But you are an inspiration and I keep looking around my very old house and thinking what can I do to change or (I don't want to say up grade) but more to up lift some of my 'stuff'. I love antiques and old furniture too and I confess nostalgic about things. I found two gold rimmed dimpled glasses just like the ones my mother used to have when we were kids - I am coming up to 72, anyway, they were Mums 'good' ones. Getting back to the point of this story, I gifted them to my sister and she was non plussed about them. Didn't even remember they were Mum's good glasses. Funny world we all live in. She was polite and put them in her wall unit with all the other things she treasures. Enough of my ranting. All the best to you and your family - stay safe

Wiping down musty furniture with hydrogen peroxide can work to get rid of the smell, and doesn't hurt the finish. Vinegar also kills any mold or mildew really well, but I'm not sure what it would do to paint, so I guess you'd want to test that carefully.

Hi Mary, Drew Scott from Lone Fox does WWDD videos. You could always pick his brains about the logistics of getting viewer pictures to you. Maybe you could thrift very similar items, to those viewers send photos of, so you have something do physically work on, versus just a description.
