Have to admit

I have to admit I do read other blogs and have for some time now.  One of the ones that I read the poor Woman went thru what I have with power outages and phone troubles like i have and did.  Now as some know I am saveing up for a wood burning Kitchen stove.  It may be a nickle at a time but well worth it untill I get out of where I am at now.  I will say it is well worth the wait and the one blog that I read all of the time proves my point of the power going out all of the time.  You never know when the power is gonna be on or just plain out.  And since we are expecting a very hard winter this year I am happy that I did go with a gas range this time.  A match and you have at least burners to cook on.  Pluss some heat for the place.  I remember growing up for a time out in Collinsville the place that I was at on the line between there and Maryville the power would go out and almost everyone had a fire place in the house.  Or i would get sent down/up the street to my cousins place for heat and to sleep at if more than 24 hrs of a power outage.  The good old days of family takeing care of family.  It still brings a smile to my face of being with loved ones and sleeping on the floor for heat and food.  So now I feel the same for several childeren in the park eather way.  I will protect them eather way becuase they are good kids.  As I told some one today advice is free as long as you get at least 4 opinions and mush them all togeather and you have your answer.  It is so true now.  I still turn to the elders for advice and run with it.  And alot have told me save girl save.  And it doesent matter in how you do it as long as you try.  If you save 3 dollars or even a penny it is something.  And 3 dollars is a meal for at least 2 if not more in todays world.  If you really wanna go ultra cheap.  I have done it and still do.  Ok folks have fun and play even harder.
