As for the debt! We have so far paid off all my debt, (big deal it was $500.00 in over draft. and paid for with the government check.) put $1000.00 in an emergency fund, and paid off mikes over draft! now it is time to pay off the car!!! By the way we have decided to keep it.  We put a for sale sign in the window, but decided in the long run we are better off just keeping it.

Ok now the domestic part.  My mom is amazing. She is wonder woman and is such a good example to me.  She is doing a garden this year, as usual, so it will be nice to have some fresh vegies from them. Ok here it really is. I am going to start building up a jar collection, so I can start canning some stuff for the food storage. I think the main thing i want to can is meat.  I am going to be doing ground beaf and chicken to start with.  We don’t have room for a freezer and caning our meat is the next best thing.  So there you have it.  Stay tuned for the result show/blog.
