Not Buying It :: Week 11

by Kathie on July 5, 2009

Not Buying ItClothing: I mended two pairs of Jeff’s jeans.

Food: Still eating mostly from our storage and now many salads from the garden.

Household:

Utilities: Line drying clothes, diligently turning off power strips, not using lights during the long daylight hours.

Gifts: I finished two washclothes and a set of four quilted placemats with matching cloth napkins for a wedding gift.  I used only items I had in my stash, no new fabric, thread, or yarn.

Exercises/Self-Improvement: Yard work and weeding and walking on my lunch breaks.

Homestead: We modified a camera tri-pod Jeff that was left at his work and never claimed to make it work as a sprinkler for the garden.  It’s a lot like the Rain Tower system without the $80 price tag.

Weaknesses:

Purging:

Ingenious recycling with the tri-pod! My compliments to the engineer.
