How to Grow SWEET POTATOES in CONTAINERS, Cheap and Easy Patio Gardening YouTube video by The Gardening Channel With James Prigioni

Anyone good at growing sweet potatoes in containers like this video shows? We are in Central IL USA (6a) and I’m hoping to grow more things for some overall sustenance because (looks all around) this economy sucks right now…🌱🍠🌱

“Honey, why is there dirt and plant seed packets all over the living room floor?”

“I’m going for the ‘natural carpet’ look.”

“INDOORS?!”

“Well, you always say I spend too much time on my phone or laptop and you keep saying I should ‘touch grass’ so here we are.”

Not everyone lives in areas with reliable and consistent public transportation or can safely walk or bike to work.

These are things I’ve had to think about myself recently. Should I take on an overtime shift on the weekend? Oh, but then that’s how much in gas? But we need the money. But the gas. But how are we going to pay the XYZ bill? But then I pay ABC just to go to work. Is it all worth it?

It’s awful and predatory. Especially for those people who live paycheck to paycheck and have to wait to put gas in their vehicles. I can’t tell you how often I have driven my car down to the last gallon in the tank praying I’ll make it to the gas station in time to roll in on fumes. 😬

There are a few remnants of the manual signs, and both are present at some corner stations like this one. But as many pointed out, most have converted to the electronic ones. Just depends on where upgrades are in their budgets for the smaller chains or what happens when stations are bought & sold.

Oh, depends on where you are, I suppose. Our community bundles electricity/water/sewer and our prices keep going up because our village board got us into the equivalent of mafia rates with a bad deal that locked the area into a contract all because they wanted to snub the city. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Yeah, we Americans have to use completely different measurements than the rest of the world, just gotta unique ourselves 😅🤣

Omg yes.
Also remember when gas stations were full service, had a service station attached to them for repairs and maintenance, and also took checks 😅

Seeing as I hadn’t traveled to my main worksite since Friday, I don’t know what the weekend price was. I know last week the price started at $3.30 Tuesday and most of the week, then this morning it was higher (8am hour) and this evening (7pm hour) it was different.

Depends on the gas station. Not all have the digital signs, and this one I mentioned has the manual type

And considering his megalomania, he would try something, anything to keep us all speaking his name. He wants to remain forever relevant. Like don’t give the nutball any ideas 🤣

Gas prices are going to be volatile. This morning heading to work, gas at one of the cheap stations was $4. Now it’s back to $3.60
We’re going to be playing the “what time should I run to the gas station” game. I feel bad for the people who need to keep going out there to change the sign numbers.

Exactly my thoughts, regardless of the post being fake or not. I can totally see this playing out, like a locked-wheel shopping cart stuck at the edges of a parking lot

Oh, and then there’s the legit emails I get and am anticipating that then get caught up in our spam block, such as when I need to reset a password to a state website or such that had a 30 min or less expiration and I don’t get it until two days later when it has been sitting in quarantine 🤦🏻‍♀️

Same! We have so many different people who work for our agency, and with turnover it’s not uncommon to not recognize names, so you’re sending me a link to go somewhere or respond ASAP and I don’t have a clue who you are even though the sent-from email has our domain? “Report as phishing” it is 🤣

I usually report everything sent to me as spam that I wasn’t expecting. Sometimes they are actual tests to see if we recognize spam, but I’ve also been known to report “real” things like when I’m told to click here to go to update my employee goals for the year. 🤣

Does Ziggy make you throw the ball, or does the lil guy toss it up enthusiastically on his own? My pittie does both, and both are equally hilarious and adorbs 🎾
