We decided to work on greening out lifestyle along while being more frugal. So, for Christmas, I am getting a heavy duty clothesline, all the ingredients for making homemade laundry soap, a juicer for family health and some new sneakers. Only a farmgal would be excited over this!!!

My hubby asked me the other day what I wanted for Christmas. I said a wheelbarrow. I need one bad. I have a big yellow wagon but it has the mesh type sides so it doesn't hold like dirt or goat and cow poop. So I need a wheelbarrow. He thought I was being silly. But I am a farmgirl, right? I also say if anyone wants to get me something, I'll take a G.C. from Tractor Supply or the feedstore, too! There was a man the other day getting G.C. there. I said he was a good man.
Juicers are great, too. And the clothesline.

Heather, I'm excited for you! I miss our clothesline that we had at our old house, somehow the drying rack in the mudroom just isn't the same... Merry Christmas!

Martha is overrated, and she is a convicted felon. (Did I say that out loud?) What? It's a good thing. LOL
I LOVE my clothesline. Wish I could use it in winter, but the thought of hanging wet clothes outside in -18 degree weather makes me cringe.
My Christmas was early. I have already received a MUCH needed new sink-I already had the faucet- installed from my parents. That is all I wanted. My Dad and I had the best time installing that a few weeks back.
I heard from a little birdie that my Grandma is giving me my Grandpa's Unicorn Strings that I LOVED when I was little. So she is being frugal and green, and she is a farm girl (born and raised) too!
Don't miss out on a blessing, just because it isn't packaged the way you expected. ~MaryJo Copeland |
