February Economic news and my take on it

The Dow went below 8,000 for 2 days. The 8k mark is supposed to be a psychological benchmark. From what I wunderstan, this means if the DOW stays under 8k, it will start creeping down toward 7k.       This is bad because the stock market is basically money being saved in the expectation a company or a group of companies will do well. So, the DOW and the stockmarket are important to keep an eye on wether or not you have money in it. It tells you what Americans who have money think.

Lady and Ladylike

There is an interesting thread going on in MrsS involving Ladylike behavior.       I have known most of my life that 'lady' and 'ladylike' where terms used to control behavior, from what I read on the thread, I am right. I have been saved from most of the conditioning by my pig-headedness and the rather obvious fact that anything a normal man can do, I can too. I am so glad I am tall and strong naturally!   There is a different version of Ladylike in the South apparently, but I do not th

First Days

I'm really excited about this blogging area. We're going to be moving in a few months....this is my space to keep track of our progress in our move and how I'm going to keep prepping in the mean time. I decided to title it Bloom Where You Are Planted because I'm learning that being prepared is not necessarily about where you are, it's about what you know and how you can adapt it to any situation. Do I think we will end up on a lot of acreage with animals, etc? At this point in my life maybe not.

Wonderful Possibilities

Well, my first morning to wake up with my coffee and come to this new MrsSurvival with so many wonderful possibilities! Of course I've got to figure them out a bit, but that's part of the adventure! Plus, don't you think it's kind of neat that we're all learning together! This is an historic moment for MrsSurvival and we are a part of it! How cool is that?   I am discovering a little at a time some of the many perks that this upgrade has afforded us. We are in high style to put it straig

Just Another Day On The Farm

2-6-09   Today it is pouring. Rain is expected for the next 2-3 days. The wind is blowing very hard, but it's not cold out to snow. I had to go out in the rain and it felt good, and of course I am soaked but I am not minding.   Knowing it was going to rain, I started chili yesterday and finished it up this morning. It is a great Chili day!   I am cleaning kitchen cupboards (again). After Christmas the kids came for two weeks and bless their hearts, they put everything in the wrong place

Good Evening Mrs S,....

Well this place is amazing! I love it. Gidgits and Gadgets and places to put informations. I love it! Did I say that already? Well I do. I love it. There, I said it again.   Today has been a run around day. Started way too early. Got free breakfast at Denny's. Good stuff Free. I have been trying to prove to my Dad that there is such a thing as a free lunch since I was in my 20's. He has always said "There is no such thing as a free lunch". Yeah well Pffft. I have had a lot of free breakfasts

I am so sick of everyone getting sick here!

Ok, so here is my moment to whine...   Back on June 10, my Monkey 3 came down with high fever, sore thrroat--Hand Foot & Mouth disease. Then when she was just well enough to go to VBS, Monkey2 caught the same virus! 3 days later, just as he was going off to the last 2 days of VBS, Monkey 1 came down with HF&M. So I was relieved when it SEEMED that everyone was done getting sick...that was 2 wks ago this coming Saturday...so on Monday June 22, Monkey 3 (my little Plague Vector) came

My new home.   The house is a 3255 sf, 6 bedroom, 3.5 bath in Tartesso Buckeye Az. As the crow flies I am just minutes from a Nuclear power plant. figure if it goes,. I will go fast.   the back yard is big, with some raised beds already in, they just need to be supported by some bricks (Summer project)

SNOW!!! In Texas!

So we managed a record setting snowfall for the Metroplex the last 2 days. The nice thing is, all 8-10" of it should be GONE by Sunday! It gives the Monkeys a chance toplay in the snow, and I don't have to drive in it. The roads are already clear pavement.   Here are a couple pics to enjoy.     Two Monkeys (#2-3) and their tiny snow man.   And Monkey1 and her big snowman.

Realizations of Clutter and Life

Well, I've been dealing with clutter for a while now and it's a true dichotomy. As it gets better, it also seems to be getting worse.   I've reflected on the fact that when I was single, the problem was different - a more organized approach and one I only had myself to blame for.   When I got married, I could appreciate a mess because we were both working and there just wasn't enough hours in the day to do things.   Now that I've been home for a while, I seem to be the sole clutter c
