2. Dig a cellar.
3. Build a porch.
5. Finish the house since it was started in 1998... (oh , yeah.. I see that happening! LOL)
6. Start on the next mile of new fence.

Happy New Year to everyone!

I'm gonna steal 1,3,5,7,10 from Gregabob;

in the mean time I want to build a greenhouse and a few hoop houses;
continue stocking up;
pay off my car this year;
continue learning new skills;
work on a network of like-minded people in my area (long shot);
and not get caught up in other people's drama.

Gonna be a busy year:)

1) find a way to get some chickens even if I have to move to do it.
2) build up my food stores.
3) acheive my black belt in TKD.


That's it, I figure that's enough pressure for my simple mind! lol

1. Do all of the projects needed to get the house ready to sell, so we can GET OUT OF FLORIDA:shout:

2. Convince my mother to move into an assisted living facility, which she really, really, really needs.

3. Start to homeschool my daughter again.

Three is about all I can handle as they are all biggies.

4) plant apple, pear, peach and cherry trees
5) work on a better set up for meat chickens and sell more
6) clean up the hole that we have as a bastement and make it into a place to store food
7) learn more about training horses
8) take full advantage of ANY warm weather and keep teaching my kids that outside is the place to be
9) work on being more patient with all around me

Happy New Year everyone!
