Thanks for the Ping, Granny! What a lot of resource material here!

I don’t want to live in a cave (my little farm is just right!) but I am battening down the hatches; have been for a while.

The cc is paid off, the cars and truck have been paid off for years and still going strong with regular maintenance, and now I’m tackling the mortgage. 90K to go, and we’re DEBT FREE! (We are 49 and 46.)

The garden is producing, the pantry and freezers are stocked, emergency supplies are where they’ve always been (we live in summer Tornado and winter Blizzard country) and I’m shedding un-needed possessions to lighten the load.

A friend and I are having a garage sale and I’ve already made over $100 on useless to me “stuff” that I’ll never miss! That’s going into the ‘generator fund,’ because that’s the last survival-type thing we need, but that’s got a hefty price tag, so it’s taking a while.

Anyhow, keep up the good work and thanks for all you do! :)

That is good planning, hope you get rich with the garage sale.

It is that time of the year, I made arrangements for my rabbit cages and some of the other odd cages to go to the 4-H groups of the area today.

Thank you for reading our efforts, do come and post more often, you have so much knowledge to share.
