As much as I had not wanted to go into town today I got a call from the meat processor saying our bacon and hams here finished and ready for pick up so into town I went to being home the bacon, so to speak.  It is nice to have the freezers full and know that come what may we will be okay for quite some time. The local store in town is running a sale this week on turkeys so I may stop in there and pick up a few for the frrezers, it never hurts to be prepared!

The economy and all that is going on in this country and world wide have been on our minds lately it is hard to know what to listen to and what not to pay attention to. I guess the best thing for all of us to do is to be as self sufficient and as self reliant as we can be. I am glad that our home and vehicles are paid for and that right now, knock on wood we don’t owe anyone anything, for that we are extremely grateful.

My husband has the weekend off this weekend and we are looking forward to just having a quiet weekend here at home. The weather is to turn cooler next week after a warm weekend so we will be checking the corn stoves this weekend to make sure everything is ready to go, as we may have to start them up toward the end of next week.

 Have a great Friday!
