| Introduction | I consider the life that we are striving for to be more simple, but many would certainly think otherwise. The life we've been building, (and I can say I think we're a good step of the way there), is a country life striving to be able to enjoy the simpler things that we enjoy. Like.... * Home cooked meals and saving money. * Like producing more of our own, on our own, or with friends and neighbors. * Like being self-sufficient, or as close to it as we can. * Like living according to our belief systems. * Like trusting the food we eat because we grew it ourselves, and know exactly where every carrot stick and chicken leg came from, to the best extent possible. * Like finding better ways of working at home to open up time and freedom to do more of what we want to do. Not necessarily work less, I repeat, but to do what WE choose - not what is chosen by others for us. That's it in a very vague nutshell, and there's certainly more to it. But then, that's what this blog is for...to work it out, to share, and to discuss as we go. I hope you'll come along! |
