Tonight we do a little celebrating. What are we celebrating? The almost completion of our house plans. We were expecting it to take 2 weeks to modify these house plans into what we wanted. Instead it took 48 hours of C locking himself in our room workin on them. There are still a few modifications … Continue reading Some things to celebrate

Who says you dont need math?
C and I make a really awesome team. He is really good at the computer stuff while I am really good at the math stuff. It's not that neither of us couldn't do what the other one does, but we can do it so much faster as a team. C is spending the day working … Continue reading Who says you dont need math?
The house plans
We purchased the house plans today. I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and now that it's done I am "totally freaking out!" (said in the voice of Peg from Peg+Cat). We need to get on modifying them in order to get the plans looking the way we want so we can … Continue reading The house plans
The trip to buy trash bags
i have shared before that we only throw away about one bag of trash a month. We buy things in reusable containers or make our own stuff. We just don't throw out that much. We are finally down to our last trash bag (after about 2 years). I go to the grocery store to get … Continue reading The trip to buy trash bags
I need a “wife”

We now have a new puppy. We decided now was the best time to get one if we want it to be old enough to defend the flock next spring. There was a guy living about an hour away who had a littler of "ooops" Great Pyrenees puppies. They were so cute and really inexpensive. … Continue reading The new puppy

A really great surprise
A few days ago we discovered that we do not need the full sewage permit in order to get the building permit. All we need is the paper from the perc test. So now it looks like the next step will be to buy the building plans (hopefully next week), modify them, and hopefully get … Continue reading A really great surprise
When You Are Poor
It's amazing how when you are poor you know exactly how much you have and how much is coming out of your bank account. This week we messed up, and I mean we messed up big. I have no idea how. I budgeted this week like I always do, we even had some extra money … Continue reading When You Are Poor
A New Dog
We are on the search for a new dog. I know we had said that we didn't want to get another dog after Lobo died but it seems that our local racoons have realized the dog is no longer there. We have lost 20 chickens in the span of a week. Our coop and chicken … Continue reading A New Dog
