Good luck Chancie!
We're having to be frugal because we are only living off my income right now. We're getting the house ready to sell and will be downsizing so that I will be able to cover all the bills because Kris has had health problems since Feb.
I've made a start by planting some tomatoes. The price of tomatoes went up to $9 a kilo earlier this year (That's about $4.50 a pound)! It was ridiculous! Now that my tomatoes are starting to fruit, the prices have gone down again. Oh well... I'll still be saving money by growing them (and tomatoes are easy to grow).
I'm also trying to grow potatoes in a big pot... wondering how that will go.
I agree, it's important to have the security of knowing that you will be able to keep living in your house when you retire.
