Thank you. I was hoping someone might have a specific brand that worked for them but I'm not sure if brand names can be mentioned on the forum. I did buy a weed killer that includes getting rid of dandelions. Thanks again for the suggestion - if this doesn't succeed, I'll try (and try) again. Happy gardening!

Hi melonwhelz, Sorry I didn't respond sooner, had a rough week taking my dog who has an incurable disease to all these different vets. He will be okay and I will just pray for the best as he is my bestest friend. Anyway, the day after I posted, I started to spot, thought I was going to get my period, but nope! It never happened. I have to make an app't to see my gyno. Yes, my body is very confused and sending mixed messages to my brain which I hate! At least when I had Lyme I knew all my symptoms including the mood swings and depression, but this is a whole new ballgame! I am feeling a different type of depression, almost like I am bored but too tired to do anything about it. I did receive the book "Awakening at Midlife" yesterday so I am going to start reading that. How is your sister? I help many people who have Lyme Disease because it is horrible and so misunderstood, especially by doctors because they don't know how to treat it. What helped me recover was following a book written by a brilliant doctor named Dr. David Jernigan (Beating Lyme Disease Using Alternative Medicine". I know so many people that are cured now because of Dr. Jernigan. Maybe your sister should buy the book? Anyway, I feel so drained, is that normal? I need to vacuum and do some laundry but I'm not doing it, LOL! I am laughing at your drumroll:::: THE CHANGE! Oh why oh why don't men get this? Yeah, I'm bad. Denise

Thanks for your responses. I sent a message to Contact Us ("abuse of forums") yesterday, but the Spam is still there this morning. If this person has spammed other sites in a similar way, I wonder why they don't ban him/her? In other forums inappropriate responses seem to be yanked immediately. . .

I open this forum daily. Even though my house is far too small, and most of my ideas and plans for it flop into DH's disapproval, I keep pressing onward. I have to do small projects, one at a time. No multi-room tear out and redo here, but things are coming along. I recently posted questions about ideas for a storage wall area for oversize books (we both have far too many books even after two "purges.") and TV viewing in the living room. I learn so much from others' postings, even if the room or issue is not exactly like my problem(s) it gets my brain cells fired up too, not an easy task these days. Shades-of-Idaho, your glass backsplash and the new window hanging blow my mind; they are so wonderful. Mama-Goose, I need a multi-storied tree house. Could you install an elevator in it?
