Setbacks but still moving forward...

We've had issues and like all families we are moving through them. The biggest one was that financially we've not been able to get anything for a garden. So I've been doing lots of reading books and online. I think we will be starting a bit smaller than originally planned with a couple of container gardens. Its not exactly how we wanted to start but any start is worth it!

Tractor Supply staff made a suggestion to me: Instead of buying Feline Pine, which is 12.99 a box for 14 lbs, I should try the Equine pine pellets. They are much the same thing and are 6.29 for 40 lbs! That is our experiment right now. It would be excellent to get a kitty cost down.

We are working on Spring Cleaning, decluttering, giving away, doing a yard sale, and throwing away what we don't want. We are preparing for a simpler lifestyle. We looked into Earthbag homes but the permits to build them aren't easy to come by so we went back to our original plan of obtaining a small piece of property and building tiny homes and eventually a small barn/storage shed.

I'm determined to become more healthy and self-reliant. Its gonna happen!
