    Just us and the cats on a 36 foot sailboat. I've tried to convince him to build a raft so we can tow the chicken coop behind us, but so far it's a no-go. Lots of people do it - no reason why it has to be an elusive dream for you.

    I'm planning on selling my house, moving onto my bf's boat and sailing the world - does that count?

    Does anyone just plant all over their yard? Much of my yard is little more than a scraping of dirt over hard packed clay. I have a small raised bed area but last year the squashes took over and nothing else really grew. This year I plan to plant those squashes bent on world domination in the...

    I hear you on the repairs. I started dating a guy who, after riding in my truck a few times, has fixed the brakes, the fuel filter, the fuel pump, spark plugs, and something else I think. I'm tellin' ya, this guy has made himself a necessity in my life, and saved me a huge bundle of money...

    Yep. A day watching TV together is not the same as two hours spent doing a project together on the floor.

    Was at Costco yesterday getting "lunch" and saw them giving free cookie samples from these really cool tins. Asked if I could have a couple and walked out with four nifty tins! I'm thinking of using a couple as 'wrapping' for a gift basket of homemade jams for the relatives. BF says "don't...

    I also make my own detergent, and for a while I was pumping the wash water out the back door. That section of grass (ok, weeds) looks the same as all the rest of the lawn.

    Yes, please. I'm also contemplating the idea. Any info at all is good.

    mmm Pear sauce and pear butter are on my to-do list in the next week or so. I have I big box of pears that I'm letting ripen a bit before processing. I'm thinking that today will be apple-pear sauce with skins using all the tiny fruits that would be too annoying to peel.

    Making jars and jars of jam from fruit from the neighbors' trees. Many (most) people around here don't use their fruit, and they're just as happy to have someone take it and keep it off their lawn. Got most of the jars I'm using from posting on facebook asking friends if they had extras they...

    Go shopping! But leave all your credit cards at home, and put $10 in your pockets. You'll probably only be able to get one thing, so you'll spend a lot of time thinking about what to buy, and why you want it. You may even leave with the $10 still in your pocket.

    yum. Just stocked my freezer with outdated and smash-box discounted food. If you believe their prices, I saved more than I spent. Also working on switching the kitties to using horse bedding pine pellets. $5 for 30 pounds - and I plan to compost it so I can work towards my goal of canceling...
