Codependency is defined as
an excessive emotional or
psychological reliance on a
partner, typically a partner who
requires support due to an
illness or addiction. Codependency is a problem common in
both people that are addicted
and their family members.
Addiction significantly impacts
one out of eight Americans,
which in turn means that it
affects one out of four families.
Individuals with an addiction
sometimes manipulate the
family members love and
create havoc in the lives of their
loved ones. Sadly, the family

Ciao Amici,
Every year as St. Patricks
Day approaches there are
many stories, some true,
some false. I decided to do a
true or false quiz about St.
Patricks day
1) Was St. Patrick Italian?
2) Did St. Patrick really
banish all snakes in Ireland?
(NAPSI)About half a
million buildings catch fire in
the U.S. every year, reports
the National Fire Protection
Association. The change of
each season is a timely opportunity to fine-tune your
homes fire safety. Keep the
home fires from burning your
house by heeding these
seasonal hints.
Spring
Clear away dead plants and
debris from around the outside
of your house.
If doing your springcleaning involves a lot of
laundering of clothes and
curtains, be sure to clean the
lint filter in your dryer before
or after each load of laundry.
Remove lint that has collected
around the drum.
Make sure your dryers
exhaust vent pipe is not
restricted and the outdoor vent
flap will open when the dryer
is operating. Gas dryers
should be inspected by a
professional to make sure that
the gas line and connection
are intact.
Turn the dryer off if you
leave home or when you go to
bed.

that.
I understand your fantasy of a
baseball field lawn like your
brothers with stripes and everything. But I'm afraid synthetic
chemicals are a no-go here. You
can spread some corn gluten in
the lawn, which is an organic
pre-emergent. It won't kill the
weeds that are there, but will
prevent new weeds seeds from
propagating. Weeds dont
bother me, as you know.
Theyre as green as grass.
Please cut back the dry perennials I left standing to encourage
self-seeding and because they
look nice dusted with snow.
While youre at it, if you don't
mind, you can snag the seed
heads that didn't drop and put
each kind separately in clean
paper cups. No need to the label
whats what, unless youre
dying to brag about all youve
learned since being with me.
One more thing if you don't
mind. The stone patio has
patches of algae. I know I said
green is good, but algaes
slippery when wet and Im
concerned for a certain someone
that tends to be a tad clumsy. I'd
say power wash the patio, but
it's tricky not to blow out the
wonderful sedum rooted in the
nooks and crannies. I heard that
1/3 cup white vinegar mixed
with 2/3 cup water sprayed on
the algae may do the trick.
Perhaps after you spray, scrub
each
stone
individually
(keeping away from the joints)
then hose off. You're the best!
In case I forgot to mention, if
you could forgo the chainsaw on
the hydrangea and stay clear of
the beautybush too that would
be great. Happy almost spring!
