Research,Research!!!

With a small baby son,it can get pretty interesting trying to reseach anything. I want to do things in a non-traditional manner! It may sound old world,but hey no guts no glory! Right? For right now I have 3 differant Realators working on finding a place come late this Fall into early Winter!!! "2010". I have in the meanwhile started packing things that are not needed around the house,on a daily basis! Such as books,knick-knacks,and such. i have also been on a mission to stock up on a few of my fave things that I will not be able to find in stores up there!! What would that be?? Ah" Yankee Candles,for instance I love their candles in Cinnamon Apple and Vanilla! Yes I know I can order them,but then i'ld have a shipping fee also!! Why candles??Because we plan to go off the Grid!! We are planning on burning wood or pellets for heat,use well water,and rain water too! And have a Windmill,i'm planning on getting all the candles I can afford for now!!! And then we also plan on using oil lamps,which I would love to find the same scents in ,but i have no clue who would even sell them or if it even exsists!! I really want to decorate in a Farm like way,yeah I know we do not have our house yet,but i'm being very positive and I know that God will provide. i've been collecting Precious moments,and would love to get more but it is expensive for us right now!! I really love them though!! I also want or would love some John Deere stuff! I think they even have a cookbook,that would be cool!!! Now i've been told that to really save money I should can stuff!!,and I want to do alot,but will need a ton of jars and lids too!!So i've started my quest on that,You know i'll even be happy to rent a farm to start out,if it gets us up there sooner!!! Ok winning the lottery could work too!! If we only played!!! i am hunting for a used cooks wood burning stove/oven. No clue where to go there either but i'm looking!!!

  1. Ebay, Ebay, Ebay. Haven't I told u before, lol. You can find anything and everything on Ebay. Also try Lehmans, though they are very expensive they have hard to find items that can't be found elsewhere.
