This morning I went grocery shopping for myself and the little lady that I "see to" every day. She is 88 and a hoot! I just love her! Getting ready to shred potatoes for hashbrowns and then to make burrito filling and pico de gallo for this weeks breakfasts. Not much else on todays list...

Wow! Sounds like you have some big decisions to make. Doesn't life just keep you guessing? Never know what is coming around the bend. It does sound good financially for you. I hope it will actually work for the best for all of you!

Sure glad he looked at that tire! And if you are tired sometimes, it's because you do so much!

I'll keep you in my prayers for the next few days. I'm used to having DH around most of the time now but it wasn't easy getting used to. I like my alone time whether it is to do housework, cook or just read. He usually leaves me alone when I start asking him for help.:)

Been a bit since I last posted. The elderberry tincture is done and it is the worst thing I have ever tasted!!! I'd have to be really sick or add sweetener to get it down. Maybe with a little sugar it would be like elderberry wine! My jeep is still running great but we have not been able...

This will supply nearly 2,000 calories/day for one year with adequate protein and fat. If you know what wild foods to forage for greens or can grow a small patch of greens, you can provide vitamins at no additional cost. You will also need salt and will want some other seasonings. You may be...

My Buddy was put on phenobarb- low dose. It worked well. Pretty sure his were a result of fluconazole for Valley Fever. The last seizure he had was the day after the County sprayed for mosquitos. After an hour and a half, we had to let him go as he still had not come out of it. One thing...

Elderberry Jelly today! It's wonderful!!!

No raisins for me, FEM! Plenty of cinnamon though! Made the elderberry jelly today. Hope I am done with them for the most part! The jelly is a pain to make but the taste reminds me of (the good parts) of childhood! I wonder if one can purchase seagrapes? Have to google that one. Haven't...

I got an extra gallon of milk from work so I made a double batch of rice pudding for dh today. Also, finally made the elderberry syrup. It seems a little watery but has a great flavor with the added ginger, cloves and cinnamon. Next I will make another quart of fire cider and we should be...

I'm sorry about your goose and do you have an update on the whether? No dull visits to the farm, huh?

Tallie is darling! And I am so glad to hear that Lillie is doing much better and back with her peeps! You certainly have some irons in the fire!

Now Deb-- I don't doctor them up like that. LOL Seriously though, I understand. And Happy Birthday Cindi!!! Ended up just doing housework today and eating leftovers for dinner. Soaking beans tonight for red beans and rice.

Brownies? What brownies? LOL They are gone, gone, gone! A few to some young children and a few to their Great Aunt that I visit, a few to work and more to dh and I. Poof! All gone. P.S. Deb--I double the amt. of cocoa and then add a touch more. Hard to get them too chocolaty! If I need...

I will be praying for your family!

Everything's coming up elderberries! Made 2 pints of tincture this morning. Tomorrow will make a few pints of syrup with ginger in it and Thursday, hopefully jelly. That way all stems should be strained out. Also may pick a few more on Tuesday. Freezing them really makes it easier to get...

I get tired just reading about your days!!! I hope you take a little time to rest this weekend!!!

I hope you are having a great weekend with the little ones!!!

Hi and welcome, Melissa! My dh and I did what you are just starting to do for the last 9 years. After deciding to stay in one place we still stayed in our travel trailer for another year but have sold it now. We have so many memories, photos and friends that we would never have known. If you...

Yikes that's a busy weekend! I keep trying to get my time off under control enough that I actually take a little time off. A hot tub might help!...
