[QUOTE="Shari, post: 135529, member: 1848"] Its hit hard here, too. I am learning to fix our vehicles myself. In addition, easy child 1 and I are putting 2 wrecked tauruses together so I can park my truck unless I need a truck. We already butcher our own hog and beef and raise a garden. I was going to not do that this year, but guess what? I will be. Since I drive difficult child 2 to school and pick him up everyday, errands in town are a challenge, because I can't do them with him in tow, so everything has to be done at lunch. It makes for a very non-relaxing lunch, but its better than spending money to go back to town later. I'm also working harder to combine dr appts as much as possible. I shop at Aldi's now, and but milk at another store that I can walk to at lunch (its $1 cheaper there). We're getting a few more laying hens for eggs, what we have right now doesn't quite keep up. I take my scooter into the little town if I need something from the gas station, and we've even taken the buggy to the grocery store a time or two. I also plan to graze the yard as much as possible this summer, too, to avoid mowing it as much. [/QUOTE]
