Teddie Seeley said… - Well hello back attcha Dave, from Portland, OR,
Being disabled and trying to live on the tiny check from Social Security Disability, has been a bit of a struggle. I've noticed the cost of living has gone up, so have to really find new ways of dealing.
My oldest daughter Kara and her friend put on a craft party at least twice a year, and I have usually made a few dollars from that except this last time. Everybody I guess just ooooohed and aaaaahed over what I had to sell but wouldn't buy, too many are tightening up their belts. I designed and crocheted some coffee cup cozies,of course they all had something different on them, flowers, butterflies, skull and bones, (my son-in-law loves his skull and bones one, and uses it for a beer cozy) and made locker/refrigerator pockets from recycled jeans, decorated them with skull and bones, and peace signs, and other silly things.
I knit, crochet, do beading, plastic canvas, and sew. I've decided instead of making more things to sell I'm just going to do homemade gifts for Christmas instead.
I belong to a recycler group here in Portland, and I've been wanting to learn to quilt and managed to score a wonderful collection of patterns, quilting material and batting, and a few packages that have material and patterns to learn how to quilt, got books and magazines, thread, everything, so when I get a few of my other projects out of the way I can start in on teaching myself to make a quilt.
Going to have to go back to making my own bread and noodles. Don't have any of my canning supplies, so couldn't do that, that was something I really enjoyed.
Handy with tools, and have managed to keep my dryer going, even had to replace rear drum rollers, but finally had to replace it when the element went out because it was cheaper to buy another one.
Was raising 3 of my 5 grandchildren until DHS took them away by using lies, so I'm working on trying to get them back.
You are so lucky to be so handy, you may not get rich in monetary ways, but you probably are rich with friends, and can set your own hours, and choose and pick what you want to do. Are you married Dave, and does she work outside of the home, so that at least you can be covered by insurance?
Well I need to get back to ripping apart a monitor taking pieces out to use for jewelry making, a bit of nerd jewelry. and will recycle the rest of it.

Robin Lee said… - Hello, and thanks for the nice message. It sounds like you keep pretty busy doing the things you love to do. I am working hard at getting to that point in my life.
I am from Ontario, Canada and I am only in BC temporarily. It's beautiful here but I miss my home. I grew up fairly poor, in a small farming community in southern Ontario but not on a farm. It is my goal to save money for a small hobby farm back east and I'm about half way there!
I would love to live in a log cabin! is your a small one?
We hunt and fish for game and grow our own vegetables and it's our ultimate goal to be totally self sufficient. It's a long way off but we've been working for many years to get there.
I am a horse shoer by trade and It's just awesome driving around the country side, visiting different farms and meeting different people and shoeing horses.
One day, I want to travel across the U.S. I feel like North America has so much beauty to offer! Have you ever been to eastern Canada?
That's enough for now, you should join the group I started, Horse Lovers Unite!

kathy1971 said… - Duke, Thank you so much for the message. It has been hard looseing a friend but I am dealing with it. It has made my other friends come around and be there for me. I have gotten to meet two of my penpals over the weekend and it was great. I have been through alot in my life and most people here only about a few things and they ask how I have made it threw it all. I am better because of it. I live out in the county and I also like getting up at 5am and sitting outside and sipping the coffee and smelling the new morning air. I love to hear the first sound of a bird. The weather here in Indiana has been cool in the morning and 80's in the afternoon.I also spend alot of time on my garden and with my husband due to I have only a few friends who stop by once in a while.All my family is in NY. My husbands family lives close by but they feel people need to come see them. They are very selfish people. So I stay at home and do things around the house and write penpal letters and talk to my pals on line. I don't drive much do to my nerve disorder in my legs and I do not work due to it either. I love to read and am not much of a TV person but I have a few shows on certain days I like to watch.I am always able to find stuff to do out doors so that is why I don't watch much tv.I hope I have not bored you with my rambling. I hope you and your wife are doing well. Keep in touch.

- Hi Dave
Thanks for the update! I see you have been really busy with all of your projects and farm work, etc..How in the world will you be able to keep up with it all if the reponse is overwhelming to your 40 mail-outs?! Geez-Louise!!
It must be cool and pretty there. It is terribly hot and humid here, we live in a subtropical climate, and I have been staying inside most of the time since we returned from our trip to Colorado. We were gone just over 2 weeks and it was great! Oh yeah, except for ONE incident that is. On our way out of TX. we were hit by a very large Canada Goose, flying low out of a swamp area , but traveling at breakneck speed, ( the goose that is, no pun intended ), and as it collided with our van it broke the enclosure around the passenger side headlight! When we got to Denver we had it replaced to the tune of just under four hundred bucks,( less than our deductable ), dammit!! Other than that we had a wonderful time. We're fortunate to have family out there so we stayed a few days with brother/sister-in-law and also visited my aunt. While we were visiting an old friend and former neighbor, he asked if we would like to purchase some of the contents of a storage shed he was cleaning out. We said "sure if you have something we want", and he brought out a pile of too good to pass up goodies. He's an old guy and he had a collection of fishing gear that we couldn't believe. We bought 4 tackle boxes and a boxful, plus 2 rods and reels, for a hundred dollars. Now I'm in the process of trying to find someone with knowledge of old fishing tackle and it's value. There are several old wooden lures, some in their OLD original boxes, plus other vintage baits of all kinds. I would not want to fish with them for fear of losing one or more, and I think some may be collectible. I have searched on ebay some but it is mind boggling and tiresome. I guess I should advertise locally, or call some area bait shops to see if I could get estimates on age, etc. What do you think? I don't want to put them in a garage sale!! Anyway I think we got a good deal.
So nice of you to donate your time and sweat on staining the fence for those folks. Maybe you'll be rewarded with more scratch-off wins!
Until next time...
Michele
