When I looked at the calendar, yet again for the 40th time this weekend, plotting the bills, I felt a slap in the face, 34 more days until Christmas! How are you doing for the holidays this year, have you started, planning on starting soon, almost there or already done? I am one of those...

I've been informed my younger sister and hubby are going to mother's in TX for the holiday. DFIL passed in July, I'm not sure whether MIL wants to be here, without him, for the holiday. (So that's three less than what I'm used to.) I think instead of just family, I'll invite a couple, or...

I am ready to can some green beans. I have been using a water bath canner to process my beans for years. I went online to look up something and saw where it is no longer recommended to can green beans this way. WHAT!!!!!! When did this happen??? I have an Aunt who is 89 years old and has been...

Is anyone else ready for autumn? I want to decorate with pumpkins, head to the pumpkin patch, enjoy cool winter nights, drink hot cocoa whenever I want! :pilgrim:

I had to drop his middle child off with his big brother and I have the baby. I just want to know when all this bad stuff is going to...

We have had a horrible heat wave for all of July and now in August it has let up with some wonderful weather! It is making me want to get going on some deep cleaning and decluttering! Having a yard sale in two weeks and then I want to do some sprucing up, perhaps move furniture around and get...

Debit cards poised to get much more expensive Debit card fees: Debit cards likely to get much more expensive for consumers - Los Angeles Times New rules cutting merchant fees mean banks will be looking elsewhere to make up the revenue.

I posted before about some land I own with my siblings. Now I am ready to get an attorney and do something. I wanted to get it surveyed and divided up but 2 do not & 1 doesn't care as long as she doesn't have to pay for it. 1 (30s) of the don't divide it up lives on the land with our mom. My...

Today I transplanted some of my seedlings to cell packs.I always start mine in small mushroom containers,so I can start the most amount of seeds under lights in the house. Hard to believe I got 132 plants from this container. Now that they are potted up I take them to the Greenhouse for the day...

I know most people don't consider February to be spring - but I do. Ahh, nothing says "Spring" like an 8 foot high snow bank ;). But, regardless of what mother nature is trying to tell me with her incessant barrage of frozen white stuff - it's spring, and I'm ready to clean! Anyone else...

Three months ago I left my husband. An awesome provider, a good dad, a super grandpa... but a “not so good” husband. We have gotten along better this past month than we have since before we married. The divorce has been filed and it's time to move on. I've been a member of frugal village...
