My Grrrl asked me what I would want if she bought me something... I really have no idea of the things that I want until I see that. That is kinda bad, but it is true, I suppose that it is good that I know that!

 

I think that one of the things that I want, and how sad is this... is a Solar Oven, one that I just have to put together, not build. Does that make sense?

 

I have been listening to podcasts this morning, and I think that we need to do a home evaluation, as far as someone breaking in goes... I might have the kids help me with that.

 

My Grrrl has been trying to help me, and get in the spirit, and she is doing well, but I know that she still thinks that I am crazy! Maybe I am, and I don't want to be a zealot about it, but I do want to be "doing it" on a regular basis.

 

Maybe tomorrow I will listen to knitting podcasts? LOL!

 

I really can't wait until the kiddos are grown and gone, and me and My Grrrl can find a smaller house, and one that is more friendly to a "homestead" type of life... I want chickens and goats! :)

 

Well, I better go now, I have to actually do work today!

LOL

 

 

Blessed Be!

I really need to work on my solar oven. That is my main goal right now, getting good plans, and then getting supplies. I want to be able to build it during spring break, when the kids as home, and I am off.

We have a good thing going,and we have a code name, and lost of idea,s slowly being implemented. Not going to go crazy, and burn myself out on the idea of it all...

But I do so want that solar oven going!

Blessed Be!

I have been listening to podcasts all morning, and this afternoon I am going to take my "goodwill list" to the thrift shops around town. There are things that I can get a thrift shops for cheaper than at a regular store.

 

Things like:

can openers

canning jars and lids

whistles

signal mirrors

candles funnel

 

Things like that. I also want to look at things to help me build a solar oven and a cold frame.

 

That is my idea of fun! Woohoo! :)

 

 

Blessed Be!

We are getting our family ready for anything. That is about all. This will not be a daily blog situation, but more of a "when I can" type deal. When I have something to say. This is not to advise others, just what I have learned, and what I am doing, Mostly what I dream of doing, because that is the kind of person that I am, a dreamer and planner, more than a doer!

Blessed Be!
