One Hundred Dollars a Month

I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

Quote of the Day: A best friend is like a four leaf clover, hard to find, lucky to have.

A high of 85 degrees is predicted for today {wowza!} and since we don’t have air conditioning at our place, and we haven’t put the screens on the windows yet, it will be exciting to see how hot it gets in the house. Apparently our plaster walls are supposed to help keep the place cool. We shall see! 😉

Everyday, it’s an adventure. Have a great day everyone, stay cool.

  1. I lived in Northern Vermont for three years where air-conditioning is not the norm. It even seems to be a weird point of pride that they don’t turn on their a/c even when they have a window unit. However, get a window unit. They sell out fast and you won’t be able to find them past June when you’ll actually need them. Some days get into the high 90s.

  2. I agree with Tiffany- You may want to look in to a small window unit, maybe just for your bedroom. Growing up in Maine we NEVER had AC. I think it had something to do with being stubborn New Englanders.

    I currently live in a small house with plaster walls. It takes about 3 days of 80+ degrees for things to really heat up inside.

  3. Good day to get the screens up then! I agree with the small window unit. Definitely helps to be able to sleep at night.

  6. We have lived in central Vermont for over twenty years with no a/c. We open the windows at night and cool the house down and then close everything up in the morning and our house stays nice and cool! Somedays it actually feels like we have a/c as the house stays very comfortable during those hot days of summer.

  8. About those ticks etc. how about wearing a white painters coverall like this for those days when you are going to have location which requires a major clean up. Bonus they should allow for you to remove them outside rather than taking them into ones house. You maybe able to find them in a washable design just check for a dense weave of fabric too.

    just add bug spray. Remember you are having this issue now due to neglect in the past. Also consider this idea to DE http://www.thebugsquad.com/fleas/diatomaceous-earth-fleas/
