Isn't it nice with the extra spruce up expenses I'm sure you have right now with getting ready to sell your home, that you have preps to use up? Saves you a little on grocery money for now. When you are shopping for your new place, you can do so with an eye toward 'where will I store my preps?' <br /><br />Happy New Year to you. Thanks for visiting!<br /><br />: )HossBosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13444735851486747330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5662968327054666593.post-33431273039375506372011-01-05T10:48:04.525-06:002011-01-05T10:48:04.525-06:00Those are all such great goals!

I have about 3 mos worth of food storage but I'm in the process of using it all up because I have it stored in an extra bathroom and I need to have it look like a bathroom when we sell this house!<br /><br />ManuelaManuela@A Cultivated Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282273791971364124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5662968327054666593.post-74689149006660897072011-01-02T10:24:07.077-06:002011-01-02T10:24:07.077-06:00Thank you, Mamma Bear!
There are some that scof...Thank you, Mamma Bear! <br /><br />There are some that scoff at the slightest hint of optimism ...as if those of us who feel it (and dare to voice it) are somehow less in touch with reality. But I say we need more of it. Not blind Pollyanna optimism ...but belief in our cause and belief in ourselves to continue to stand up for that cause. We have to have hope throughout the battle or we are defeated before the battle begins. Maybe that's the biggest contribution we women can make to this cause. Keeping the home fires AND the hope fires burning.HossBosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13444735851486747330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5662968327054666593.post-58991941013227315752011-01-02T08:50:21.786-06:002011-01-02T08:50:21.786-06:00I just love your New Years post.

For instance, How much flour would I need? I know it depends on how much bread and stuff we plan to eat but what I don't know is what a one year "average" supply poundage would be. <br />I would love for you to email the basic list you have. If you lost my email it's jcjhkford@aol.com<br />Thank you for the response. <br />Oh, have you checked out the bee hive I just built?

Then he took me to town for breakfast. <br /><br />Woo-WHOOO, this new year started great and keeps getting better! <br /><br />LOL<br /><br />@Fatkat...<br />Happy New Year to you and yours too! Chat might be tough for while. YOF just went on the 3-11 shift. He starts tomorrow. But he will still be off on Saturdays and I will need a way to keep awake until midnight Friday nights, so maybe I'll drop in. <br /><br />Glad you're still around. You were too quiet there for awhile!<br /><br />@Redneck...<br />I think you guys have done great for only being there one year. Be glad you have the skills to build what you need or it would be even further out of reach. We've been here 4-1/2 years now, so be patient. You'll get all your projects done. Then you'll think of some more. LOL <br /><br />YOF built us a spreadsheet in Excel. He used a list from an LDS website, I think. But since I do the shopping and the cooking, I know what we eat and don't eat ...and in what approximately quantities. So I revamped it for content, then revamped it again for format ...from alpha on all items to categories, then alpha within the categories. <br /><br />It's too much detail to put here, but you give me a good idea for a post. I'll start working on it. In the meantime, I'll email our list, if you want. Maybe it can be a basis for one you build for yourselves. <br /><br />Happy New Year to the Redneck Clan and Happy First Year Anniversary to the Mini-Farm!HossBosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13444735851486747330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5662968327054666593.post-64748436673399709752011-01-01T09:41:21.533-06:002011-01-01T09:41:21.533-06:00I like your plan and I am sure you can do it.

I wished I was as far along as yall are.<br /> I have no storage space and have to build everything I need and you know as well as I do the price of building a new barn just for storage is not in the plans. <br />We have only been at the Mini Farm for a year now and it seems the plan keeps getting sidetracked to animals and not for ourselves.<br />I really like the fact you have a years worth of food stored up. I know this sounds stupid, but what do you have, how did know what to start on and do you rotate? <br />For me I could use some sort of stocking list I can start on and check off as I go along. I don't guess you have one made up do you? <br />Have a great 2011 and good luck with it all,<br />Modern Day RedneckModern Day Redneckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17682843961510053146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5662968327054666593.post-41094818440019084922011-01-01T09:30:15.648-06:002011-01-01T09:30:15.648-06:00Good New Year to you and YOF.

I must get my stores more organized and get up out of my chair and spend more time working on improving my yard and building. I am way short on twelve months stores so I will work on that. You and YOF need to get to chat more often and vist with the gang!
