[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 596823, member: 84"] Hmm. With the schizo issues mixed in there........well........maybe. Give him the benefit of doubt as that surgery IS painful.........and even now he has to be sore so that might also be affecting his mood a bit. (doesn't help that most men are babies when it comes to pain ) I know you're new to the area, but I wonder if you stop in at some farmer's markets if perhaps you inquired someone might be willing to give you a share of the harvest for help in the garden, maybe an older couple? We have a few folks around here doing that for both the harvest AND to learn to garden as well. Also keep a watchful eye on those farmer markets because as veggies/fruit begin to get really ripe the prices drop dramatically, especially if you buy in bulk enough for canning. The girls and I were able to purchase our tomatoes that way last year, peaches as well. I don't know if you're one for facebook or not.........but if so, do a search to see if there are any community pages such as for yard sales and the like. Our small town has like at least 5 of them. lol Alex will have a fabulous birthday because of one of those yard sales and it didn't cost me much at all. (thank goodness as I have 4 bdays in the month of June!) People on our sites are also good at pointing those who need it to help for various things........and anyone who is hiring whether small business or company. Check to see if you have a Community Action or similar that will help with utilities and help pay for your gas when you find work. [/QUOTE]
