I totally agree with everything you have chosen to do.

The real estate market in our small town stinks and I don't want to take a loss on our house. We don't associate with any of our neighbors - our friends are like minded and that is such a blessing.<br /><br />I love your word - LESS - I started downsizing clutter and belongings in November after the election and I am continuing to do so. One day soon we are going to rent a dumpster and just fill it up! <br /><br />Great post!!!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14479304857245688749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914993724763982306.post-80829269515811525092013-01-05T09:36:17.992-06:002013-01-05T09:36:17.992-06:00I love this!

But the surprise was that we were able to really enjoy our lives without certain things. And I found that by focusing on managing the household we had more money! <br /><br />I pray that your husband is able to join you soon. Have a wonderful 2013!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595549057172510815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914993724763982306.post-22084859838824720852013-01-04T08:59:20.377-06:002013-01-04T08:59:20.377-06:00Sometimes, you just KNOW when something is the rig...Sometimes, you just KNOW when something is the right move; obviously this was one of those times.

I remember when...I LOVE everything about this post. I remember when you and I both felt compelled to "simplify" at the same time, and we also downsized at the same time. Mine was a little less stressful, as the Navy sent us to the most expensive place in the US and put us in "take it or leave it" military housing. Most of our decisions were basically made for us.<br /><br />I've watched this little peek into your life through this blog and it has done my heart so, so good to see you evolve into a happy, content, spiritual woman. I do believe "less is more" and I believe God can do so much with that in 2013. Can't wait to see what happens!<br /><br />Aloha Acreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742578062908987174noreply@blogger.com
