Ok, so been back in my place for about a week now. In this issue: Put new walls in pantry, built a chicken yard, Got 3 rabbits (2 I bought, 1 I got for free), Got some free Romex wire and junction boxes, bought 3 blueberry plants; 2 blackberry plants; asparagus, rhubarb; golden delicous apple tree; and several packs of seeds, bought a deep freezer, a birdhouse, some bird feeders, got a great price on about 15 bags of mulch and humus, (and got a dumptruck load of mulch delivered for free) hmmmm....I know there's probably more. lol I've been busy, busy, busy!
Here is a current pic of the tiered garden beds.

| Looks really unlevel, but it's not |
Here are some before and after pics of a little 'room' space that was in my house. I think the previous owners had a wood heater there or something.
UGLY!
Looks really, really ugly before.
Now, here are a few 'after' pics. It's not done yet...still have to put the shelving up, but here's what's done so far. The wood used for this was given to me for free :)

| This is the mini deep freezer that I bought from Lowe's for under $150. I know someone that works there so I was at least able to use a discount card |
I'm building a chicken yard using panels that I'm building and rebar so that it can be easily disassembled. I've only got a pic of one of the panels so will take more pics soon.
Bought a rabbit hutch with 2 rabbits for $125. The female is a blue tipped Himalayan and the male is a Polish mix

Wow, you are so resourceful! My mom was like that, and I'm sure trying to be! I love looking at your ideas for the chickens because that's my next step after I get the rest of my garden beds going! I founds loads of that wiring in my neighbor's scrap and I've been told I can take whatever I want! Yay!
