I apologize for the lack of posts last week. My wish for a normal quieter week did not happen. I tweaked my hip one day last week and was in pain for a few days. Our neighbor's sister passed away. That meant cooking and an extra long day at church yesterday for the funeral. Plus I decided to work on a big project...
I hope to have it finished by Friday and will share it next week. It is to be a gift for our pastor at pastor appreciation day on Sunday. Last week I thought finishing it in time would be hopeless, but I am feeling more confident now.
1. Disaster Preparedness
Week 32 was a second food supply list. I am actually trying to use up some things so I can restock as cooler weather approaches. I have not done much with the list. I do keep a decent stockpile so I am not going to worry about this for the time being.
2. Makeover the Garden
I did start clearing out some of the dead plants. I think it is still a bit early to plant fall seeds. I will wait until later in the month. On the list for this week is weeding around the fruit trees again.
3. Organize Recipes
I went through a couple of cookbooks and noted recipes to try over the next two weeks. W will eat more foods than he used to eat so I am branching out and trying new foods. I think it will help menu planning if I have a bigger list to draw from each season.
4. Have 13 No Spend Grocery Weeks
I did not go to the grocery store last week. We ate what we had on hand. I was even able to cook the requested items for the dinner following the funeral with what I had in the pantry.
5. Focus on Saving
Staying out of the grocery store helped this goal. I also did the usual - drying clothes outside and turning off lights when we left a room. I watched some free movies through Vudu while working on my project.
6. Etsy Store
The project kept me busy all week, but I am hoping it will lead to some custom orders in the future.
I hope to make a bit of time to post this week. If not please know I am busy and will get back to it next week!
