My little bit of this big World

16 years

 So much has changed here in my life and the world since I made my first post way back in February 2009, I was still working with just one very cute grandson, he's now 19 years old. We have moved to our final home, where, we have created both inside and out our perfect place. Grandchildren has risen to 8 grandsons and just one granddaughter, all healthy and happy. I am still very happily married, it will be 39 years married and 41 years together, as we get older we are still both happy with our lives.


The one thing which has changed the most is my outlook on life, we have stepped back from the commercial world, preferring a simpler life, with less stuff, our home and minds are clutter free. I am deeply interested in how our food is grown and what is added, eating hardly any processed food, wasting as little as possible and growing some in our small garden. I am mindful of all the unnecessary plastics, in our growing throw away society, using what we have and when purchasing anything, getting better quality to last longer. I hope to start making my own cleaning products as well as sourcing green products I can't make, I have to get hubby on board with it. 


I intend to keep blogging, I do love this medium, I have already made most of my years into printed books, which I do enjoy reading, plus it's a useful reference for us. I am fascinated so many people drop in each time I post and some leave comments, I love to visit your blogs, reading about your lives around the world, there is too much negativity in our world, so it's good to see others making the most of their own small spaces on this earth.
