You know how sometimes a week can fly by? well I don't know if this has ever happened to anyone reading but last week FLEW by but the past two days have just dragged on like a month. I actually thought I hadn't posted in two weeks..but no just one week and one day. I spent a lot of time in my storage unit on Sunday, and WOW it is packed. I just forgot about some of the things we had. pretty bad huh? What I did find was our Back to Basics book. This book is awesome. It tells you how to do live and sustain life like they did back in the day. Self sufficient. That is really what I wanted to do with this blog but I couldn't find the book! NOW I have found it so hopefully our adventures into the unknown can start. I mean I can't cultivate my 5 acres of land (because I don't have it) but I can try and start to learn out to do other things like make butter and weave cloth, grow a little garden and fun things like that. I know some of you will be like...ummmm "with all the modern conveniences why would you do that?" Well I want to try this to see if there is something to it. I mean do we lose something we as modern Americans have never experienced by living in a world of convenience and speed? What about the slow simple life...really that is what I have been wanting to blog about since the beginning so I am really going to try and stay on a path! I am so bad that way, there are so many distractions!
