Kay Strayer

I am a seller on Zazzle.com.  A design POD store.  I have two storefronts:  Quirky_By_Nature (a lot of nature and farm included) and Outwolfin' (otherworldly, more magic, whimsical, Halloweenish themes).  I sell some farm and nature themed merchandise because that was always the dream.  Some of my other stuff is whimsical, work and life related, and etc.

Many of the natural artifacts I photographed no longer exist.  Trees have been cut down or leveled during hurricane force winds.  Bushes have been ripped up and no longer bear fruit. Fields of flowers bulldozed for subdivisions.  Animals grown and gone to slaughter.  Each picture is a slice of history.

New Collection Added This Week:

I've just released my newest design collection entitled: "Nature At Its Best"

It depicts a beautiful orange butterfly fluttering among green foliage and little white and yellow flowers.  100 real butterfly and flowers.  No AI on this design.  Not even a filter.  Photos were taken by me in a real park.

Merchandise includes bottle openers, paper plates, key chains, bracelets, necklaces, coasters, an apron with matching set of mitts you can buy.  I believe there is a special deal for first time buyers and the site has daily deals using promo codes.

See ths book, Natural Goat Care by Coleby as a good starting place.

Or just as good, but an easier read, https://permies.com/t/111481f6/Backyard-Dairy-Goats-ebook

Are goats really as ornery as people portray them?  Or is that a myth?  What kind of goats do you have and how much do they cost to feed?  What do they primarily eat?

I just read my "DM"s about my link not being available.  Oh dear.  Here it is.

https://www.lulu.com/shop/k-aleita-and-r-love/my-biggest-fan/paperback/product-ne7v7g.html

As stated above, I desire to purchase a gently used mobile home from Illinois or a closely neighboring state.  Preferably, from within Illinois.  However, the closer the better as far as neighboring states; due to transport costs.

I will need financing or some sort of payment arrangement because we are already paying on land while performing a sudden relocation (was already in the works but was unexpectedly pushed up by landlord selling home after claiming it wouldn't be soon).  Going into the nest egg, so my ballpark maximum is $7000-$10000 (with payment schedule/QuickBooks ).  I'm a caregiver, so this would be much appreciated.  

Thank you.  

Cleaning out the "junk drawers" for a moving sale.  Doing some yard sales and some online sales but reaching out to my permies pals too.  On ebay I will be selling miscellaneous lots with tons of auto, home, and crafting stuff.  I also have a TON of movies and tv show seasons as well.  Drop me a comment and I'll drop you a link.  Tell me what category would interest you and I'll fill up a box.  We can haggle on price.  I am aiming for zero waste.

Auto includes things like lights, tools, splash guards, seat covers, things light that.
Home includes small fixtures, baby outlet covers, outlets, switches, wire spools, etc.
crafts: chalk, lots of buttons, patches, thread, x-acto knife, etc.

Secured a plot of land and already making payments.  Construction hasn't even begun yet and our present landlord dropped some bad news.  Relocation is needed ASAP.  All proceeds will go towards completing this move and our forever home.

I sell some farm and nature themed merch because that was always the dream.  The smile on my kid sister's face is enough to make me keep trying despite all obstacles.  I will link some here.

Update:

Secured a piece of property and have started making payments.  Adverse news, before construction can even begin the owner of our present home dropped the hammer.  Relocation is needed ASAP.  

I'm not asking something for nothing.  I run an online Zazzle.com store and would appreciate it if some of you fine people had a peek.  

I sell farming themed merch because that was always a dream.  Decks of cards, shirts, stationary, mugs, all kinds of stuff.  All proceeds will go towards our forever home and will be much appreciated.  

I will post the link in the promotion thread if necessary.  If not, and you reply, I will post it directly to you.

If you don't like the idea of replacing casters, finding a way to break down the integrity of the tangled hairs becomes the task.  Detangler might work.  Lubricate the caster afterward to prevent any moisture from discoloring it/rust.  PB blaster or WD-40 if you have it on hand.  Either of these products might also loosen up the hair too. I've used this trick, but not on a chair caster (I don't think).  

An ice pick/ thin Flathead screwdriver and a little bit of elbow grease might save you some dough.

I'm very late to the party.  What are the unfinished structures on the first page (The initial photos)?
