The Blackout
The world is thrust into darkness and silence, but no one knows why. Molly is an English professor at a local liberal arts college when the world suddenly goes dark. Her husband, Gary, is a corporate pilot on the other side of the country. Grounded by what appears to be a catastrophic power outage, he has no way to communicate with his wife, let alone get home to her. Not knowing whether her husband is alive or dead, Molly struggles to adapt to her new environment: without power, running water, transportation, a stable food supply, or any long-distance means of communication. Without knowing the cause of the outage, Gary must decide whether to wait for things to go back to normal, or to make the long and dangerous journey home on foot. Both must learn to survive after the Blackout.
Home Based Business Idea - Alter and Re-do Furniture
My brother started doing this about October of last year and he is really making some good money doing it. Enough that he quit his "real" job at a local department store. He finds old furniture at yard sales , dumpster diving, etc and redoes it. Sometimes he just cleans it and paints it, but sometimes he actually alters the items into other things. He is real good and sells more of the benches that he makes out of old footboards and headboard. They are so cute. He get the headboards and footboards for next to nothing at yard sales and turns them into a bench and sells them all day long for $75.00! He had to get a booth at the local indoor flea market because he was running out of room at his house.
Just an idea to throw out there if you have the tools and a truck than you can do this.
When he post pictures of the items on Facebook to a local sale group he deletes them the second they sell. I am going to start saving his pictures. He has really made some great looking items. They sell fast!

Money-Saving Tips to Lower Your Food Budget
As food prices continue to rise, consumers find it a challenge to
stay on a budget. We are spending more money on food this year than we
did last year. People are looking for ways to save money on food. As an
experiment, for one month, I spent only twenty dollars a week on food. I
ate healthy, delicious meals and all of my meals cost under a dollar.
This article will explain the foods I ate, the stores I shopped in and
other information that will help you lower your food budget.
Everyone
can save money on food if they would eat vegetarian foods two or three
days a day. You can substitute beans for meat or chicken in most
recipes. Bean stew, bean curry, bean burritos are a few examples of bean
meals. When you combine beans with a grain you get the same protein as
you find in meat, chicken and fish. Beans are high in fiber and easier
to digest than meat. For this experiment I ate only vegetarian food,
because I am a vegetarian. You can substitute chicken thighs or chicken
drum sticks, canned tuna and eggs with some of the items on my list and
still stay with the twenty dollars a week budget.
Create a meal plan for a week. Use the meal plan as a guide when you make your grocery list. Buy only the items on your grocery list. Always eat a meal before you go grocery shopping. Eating before you shop will help you buy only the items on yourlist. Wednesdays is the best day to grocery shop. Most stores will honor the previous sales items from the past week and you can get the new sales items for the new week on a Wednesday. Shop in the evening and you maybe able to get additional discounts on produce, bakery items and meat.
I shop for food in a dollar store and a grocery store. Dollar stores have a lot of food items and household products. In the grocery store I buy store brand products or products that are on sale. In the dollar store I buy dry beans, rice, pasta and oatmeal. In the grocery store I buy bananas, carrots, celery, lettuce, frozen mixed vegetables, bread and cheese. With these food items I can create meals that cost under a dollar.
The following menu is an example of some of the meals you can make on a twenty dollar a week budget.
BREAKFAST
Banana
Oatmeal
Toast with melted cheese
LUNCH
Pasta Salad
Marinated bean salad
Grilled cheese sandwich
Curry beans and rice
Carrots and celery
DINNER
SALAD
Stir-fried vegetables and beans on rice
Bean Chili on rice
Bake pasta and cheese
Vegetable and bean casserole
Eat vegetarian food two or three days a week. Shop in a dollar store and only buy store brand products and products that are on sale in the grocery store. Shop in the evening on a Wednesday to get the most sales items and discounted products.
Follow my suggestions and you can create meals that cost under a dollar and you
can lower your monthly food budget.
