    Yep, @Birdielee, it costs $300 every 3 years for septic, and the septic was just redone, as well as the septic field and was cleaned out, so I have to save $300 for that. Today I'm moving my chicks (30) and my chickens (13). I sold most of my flock, and in March went crazy buying eggs since...

    Living off Social Security

    Thank you! I will check into this. I already get Medicare Extra Help, which pays the copay for my meds, so I hope I qualify. Of course if I do, they will reduce my food stamps. That would be fine with me but I have a son living with me. I did have a very small pension, but I took a lump sum and...

    I live on SSDI, I go get the commodities box every month. I can get free bread and things like that every day, and I sell eggs to keep my chickens. I don't pay attention to what the price is at the grocery store, I charge $4.00 a dozen and no one ever complains. The cost of free range eggs in...

It has a well that was just worked on, septic that was just redone, including the septic field, but the house is a manufactured one. It has a new heat pump. It comes with a triple garage, which I will use as a workshop, but I...

    The danger to wildlife and humans with what we use now is obscene.

    I'm going to do solar as well as a windmill, I just want to start with the windmill. I want to build a greenhouse out of old windows, since it will have to be really heavy since the winds are bad in Goldendale. @perchie.girl, that's cool about your mare. There are lots of horses here, the...

    Living off Social Security

    I live on SSDI now, and I sell chicken eggs to cover feed and bedding for the chickens, dogs, and cat. I'll be moving to 2 1/2 acres in grazing land, and hope to plant trees for shade and hiding from hawks, no, not me, the chickens, and have a big garden. It is very, very windy there, so I am...
