I wonder ....

• Friday, August 8, 2008 - Ahhhh yes, the simple life

The simple life .... no, not an easier life ... but simpler by far!

By selling (or even storing until we build a garage) everything & buying an RV, we eliminate high rents. By purchasing land we add a payment but much less than typical rent. We also eliminate an electric and gas bill as well as cable (until my husband gets satellite). We'll use solar power but may have to use a gas powered generator every once in a while .... the cost is minimal. Cooking would be outside a lot of the time, by earth oven or maybe even solar or cob. We'd have a water bill due to trucking in water. Doing this may be a lot of hard work ... but very worth it financially .... I'm sure the finances differ from family to family ... but for us, we'd be cutting out $1300.00 of expenses every month. All that could go to building and setting up alternative energy sources. I'll say it again .... ahhhh yes, the simple life!!!

About Me

We are a family of 9 right now. Our dreams of homesteading have taken flight .... even if the plane is still sitting on the runway, at least we have flight plans. We home school, home church and run home businesses. Our favorite thing to do is spend time together <GASP> Yes, we actually enjoy each others company. Some times we just sit, chatting ... other times we're watching the races ..... at times we're reading books ..... and other times we're just playing with what ever we can find. This blog will be used to keep track of the journey we're on .... the journey of life ... I'll post about many things .... like ....... drama skits my children create, how to's of homesteading (or maybe the how-not-to's as I find them out), home school projects, lessons and findings, basic thoughts running through my brain ... and probably everything in between. I look forward to your wisdom, input & friendship.
