Happy New Year's Day! It's hard to believe January 1, of 2016 has arrived so quickly. Seize the day folks. Seize every day. Life it too short. Grab a cup of java and seize the day by starting with reading my first blogpost of 2016.
Hubby woke up seizing the day right off the bat. He was mumbling something about me making tortillas and excited to scramble eggs and make some breakfast burritos. Then he mentioned buying a pizza joint and something else. I asked if he was smoking something. He woke up fired up for some reason or another.
I know Son will seize the day, as he is due to leave for base tomorrow. He's planning a day at the movies or something with his siblings.

Wear it out,
Make it do,

Chimney Sweep and other homestead happenings. . .
The chimney and wood stove has finally been cleaned. This year the cost was $199.00. Last year it was $179.00 and the year before $159.00. I see a $20 hike pattern here, but there are very few companies that do this in my area (and who are reliable). Self sufficiency comes with it's own price, and there are no short cuts when it comes to responsibility.
