Same here. Houses are out of reach for many. Prices on my street have skyrocketed. I look at sale prices on sites and go "WOW" I just found 24 hrs!! Got up thinking it was Saturday. Nope, it's Friday :celebrate great! I needed that. Spazzing over this weather crap that's coming Sat...

Well, I haven't used this propane stove in a couple of years. Now I see what I didn't remember. It's a powerhouse of heat 🫨 Spend a lot of time shifting from on to pilot! I'd adjusted myself to lower house temps, the stove isn't on a thermostat -- just keeps putting out. Thinking I should...

Chile sounds like a good option for this cold weekend crap they're threatening us with. I could keep a nice pot of broth going on propane stove 🤔. Not sure I want to smell it that long. 😁. At least, if we lose power, I can keep the coffee flowing!

:lol::lol: 100% with ya! Esp the goat part.

On 2nd cup...considering entire pot! Snow threat is real😖

You won't be whining alone!!! My area might get our once every 10-12 yr happening -- heavy snow!!! Yikes. Take a guess, 3-12". :he whine away.

Big storm is hitting a huge area!!!! Massive snow predicted. Guess we'll see how prepared we are! 😁

Stuffed pepper from freezer! :drool

Weather predicts bad weather this weekend -- yep Rain, ice, snow??? 🤬 Like 3-12" -- yes, inches!! Not impressed.

Ahhhhh.....cleaned and turned on my propane stove today. Didn't use last couple of years. Had to coax it a little but we're cooking now!! 😁 The suggested visit by a polar vortex got me in gear. Threats work. Cross that off my list And, I expect a much lower electric bill. 👍

That's total depth for being self sufficient. I gave up wood burning several yrs ago as a heat source. But know well the dedicated work it takes. My own primary is to provide my own food. I'm not at 100% but primarily some meats are bought, some raised. I do have meat options I raise if I...

Geesh...some of you have some freakish weather. I complain about cold, rarely do we get below teens -- which I consider unacceptably cold. Warm is my contentment Chores done, the day plugs on! Sunshine is uplifting, even if it's cold.

Hope DH gets over sore quickly! It's the pits.🫤 Neighbors, absolutely need to be more attentive! That's a real loss and kind of you to offer more hens -- IF they even want more? Of course, being close, yours will come back home if neighbors free range them 😄🤫 Maybe they buy some feed for...

After rains yesterday, temps went to mid 20s overnight. So, I'll have a little ice to break on water, then most likely some ice to dump from trough feeders 😖 Always fun. NOT. I just keep saying "it could be worse". Job work starts back up this week, couple days, full tilt next week. I...

We got more rain than they guestimated but, all.day.long! Light but all day. Now temps dropping. Cold wetness 😵‍💫. I just finished room service to them

Coffee & pumpkin pie time. Light sprinkles today, off/on. Breaking daylight shows some came early this morn. Won't hurt, didn't have any plans behind feed chores. Maybe I'll accomplish something inside, or not :hide :caf

Usual start -- fresh, hot coffee. Yum. Quick slice of toast & jelly is just a hold over until early lunch. Chores to do now.

That's so true -- always a long, hard wait! 😂

Good day. Other doe had twin doelings at dusk. Fast delivery, up and ready to nurse. Told her yesterday to wait; she did. Plus last batch of pullets I hatched late summer began laying yesterday...2 eggs. Today 4...there's 5 girls. Nice.

I'm ready!!! Always been aware with food from family gardens & canning. Farming gets you prepped if you raise livestock, have a well, etc....and my job slacks considerably in winter, so I plan financially, too. 😁 I hate cold & winter, especially snow/ice but, I can relax for being prepared &...
