rrands today.  Need to mail more magazines, pick up a few sacks of chicken feed, grab cat food, dog meat, and pick up special batteries for the weather station we have here..etc. Then I have to hurry back and help skid logs. He is using the tractor today as he does not even want to talk about the Cat... which he worked on in the cold wind for 5 hours yesterday.

I got another nice letter from a subscriber last night:

"Tenzicut - The winter 2006 issue arrived. It is great. I feel like each article is written just for me. Even your message on the first page about being without power. We just got power back on from 4 days of no power, interstates and roads closed, etc. Aside from my husband being trapped at work for the 4 days, since he couldn't get home, my 22 month old daughter and I didn't notice too many differences. We kept the fire burning, and were able to take care of all of the animals as usual. I could even continue my work, of making felted hats and custom spinning for my fiber customers since it just required human power.

I can't wait to try your mouse trap. My husband uses lots of poison around the chicken coop, and we decided until I come up with a better idea that actually works, there is no alternative. I witnessed a chicken eat a half dead mouse once, and the thought that the poison probably crosses into the chickens eggs which we eat, along with I really think our dog that died last year ate some poisoned mice before he died is enough reason to try out your mousetrap. Our new dog, a great pyrenees also at a mouse right in front of me, which caused us to run to the vet and buy $100 worth of Vitamin K treatment just in case it was a poisonous mouse. Needles to say more, I can't wait to get the poison off our property. Thanks so much.

All of the articles directly apply to everything that I'm interested in. My opportunity to stay home and work from home is as much dependent on making money at home as it is saving money. Your magazine is a super help. I know I will be ordering a subscription very soon.
