I need some privacy from neighbors. Who is a good fence builder in burlington?

I have uv resin, oil based clay, and good sculpting ability. Would a 2 piece mold made from resin work?

Im not sure if I should use my current admin as references or not. They are trash, but I dont have an antagonistic relationship with them. What is the usual thing to do in this situation?

It's 3:30 am now and I just woke up. My alarm is set for 3 hours from now and I cant get back to sleep. Ive been staving off anxiety and mostly failing for the last week or so. My year starts tomorrow. 2 out the 5 specialists (librarian and counselor) quit or transferred. Unless they've managed to find replacements me (art teacher), thr pe teacher and music teacher are left. Admin pushed out the 2 that left, the pe teacher pit in for a transfer and when that comes through he said that he's out too.

I know that this year is going to be worse than last. Last year I was close to just walking it was so bad. I have to find something else, but im 52 and have been teaching for almost 10 yrs, but I dont know where to try to transition to. I have a BFA, some managerial retail experience that is about a decade old, and that's it. I feel trapped. I dont want to teach anymore. It was great for a while, then dropped off a cliff.

Im on a brew master monk, but i think I want to run shadow lands as a different class. I was thinking demon hunter or blood dk to fit the atmosphere. Any suggestions?

Is there something online that shows where sightings and interactions have taken place?

I have a lot of leather trimmings and scrap that I need to use. Leather is expensive and I dont want to waste any. I also want to make a cloak with a hood. Ive watched the Skill Tree video about making cloaks, and it looks like a good weekend project.

Here is what im planning to do, if anyone has experience making cloaks could you check my plan please to see if im about to make a huge mess?

I plan to use canvas for the shell. I would sew the scrap pieces like shingles to it. I want to dye the canvas in a sort of tye dye way with earth tone fabric dyed, but I might not. In another sub reddit someone suggested waxing the canvas, but I not sure if that is necessary.

I have a bolt of 100% cotton twill that I was going to use for a liner so I can have pockets

Im not sure what my character will be yet. Maybe a traveling craftsman. Or a merchant/merchant guild representative traveling around looking for new things to sell, who may or may not be a spy. I dont want the cloak to yell warrior or magic user.

Any advice would be helpful, thanks guys!

Ive been laying cardboard and topping with several inches of mulch. I had originally planned to convert my front yard to native wildflowers. The city i live in doesnt loke that, and I get signs staked in my yard that ive violated ordinance. The grass cant be taller than 12 inches.

So ive decided to mulch the whole thing and pack in raised beds for vegetables and wildflowers. Of course, grass is starting to pop up through the mulch in some spots.

My question is, if i occasionally rake over the mulch (like you would rake and smooth the sand in a rock garden) would that disturb the growing grass enough that it would have a harder time reclaiming my yard?

I drilled a dozen or so 1 inch holes in the bottom and sides of a 30 gallon plastic tote, added about 5 inches of dry leaves. On top of that was kitchen scraps and a roasted chicken carcass, and I topped it off with another 5 inches or so of dry leaves. A few days later I opened the lid (no holes im the lid and its in a semi shady spot) to add more scraps and spoiled milk and probably a quart of rain water. There was no smell of rot and no flies around it when I added the second helping of kitchen waste. I dont have any greens to add yet, im too lazy to rake up grass clippings when I even bother to mow. Have I already messed up or should I just let it ride? Also, its sitting on the ground so hopefully worms will work their way into it a some point.

I want to add some berry bushes to my very slowly developing backyard orchard. I was thinking of using large planters or grow bags because the soil is trash. What are some good choices for my zone?

I have a callery pears that ive removed the limbs from in my front yard. Ive been trying to figure out what to do with the 6 foot trunk and thought it would be cool to turn it into sculpture. Are there any chainsaw carvers around burlington?

There is a huge sweet gum tree right on the property line. Its got to be nearly 60 feet tall. The roots grow past the middle of my backyard. I like the tree well enough but im worried that anything i plant back there will suffer because of the tree hogging nutrients. I have 2 figs in the ground that have been there almost a year and they are looking stunted. Now, it may be that they are still recovering from being pit in the ground but it got me thinking that apples or Plums might not do well. I have been thinking of putting small fruit trees and berry bushes in big containers to avoid any problems with roots from the sweet gum. Is that a viable option?
