Cinnamon Grammy, seems you have been very busy. I have been buying and using tattler lids now for about 6 years. I try to buy up about 2 or 3 dozen every chance I get. i still use the other ones, but I figure in a SHTF situation where we can’t buy anymore of the one use lids, I will have the tattlers to fall back on. I also have bought several boxes of the rubber rings for replacement for the tattles as needed. I deydrated some hot peppers last week, but my garden is done. I still need to get out there and clean up the garden and get it ready for mulch.
They pured the concrete for the sidewalks and porch today and hopefully they will be getting the driveway ripped out and ready to go by this weekend.
DH was not feeling well this morning as the fluid had built up around his stomach and heart overnight. Gave him double on his fluid pill and he is feeling much better this evening. Going to give him a double tomorrow as his feet still hasn’t gone down. Seems congestive heart failure is a bit hard to control. But we do the best we can.
I have a great deal of spices that I was able to buy when Farm Fresh grocery went out of business. Got them for $1.00 and less. That is what the box of spices are from. I have a lot of spices that I grow myself. But the price on the store bought ones were to good to pass up and yes, that is one thing we don’t want to comprimise on. Using the sweater boxes are a good idea. I am going to pick up 2 or 3 of them next time I get out to store so when I get to that project, I can get the spices organized and in order by date. Going to go through the shoes tomorrow as I wasn’t able to get to that today like I thought I would. I have several and I feel I only need a couple pair of the good boots, my tennis shoes and a couple pair of sandles. Only need a couple of dress shoes for church as well. The rest will get donated. Will have that narrowed down to summer and winter shoes plus the dress shoes given me only 6 pair of shoes. The sandels are the earh shoes and last forever it seems.
Crow bar, we get the cow manure from the feed and seed. That is really good for the garden. I want to get the soil in better shape before the mulch goes down. Been busy with the sidewalks and driveway being redone that I just haven’t been able to get it done yet. Hoping to do it tomorrow before the rain hits here Wed. night.
