Hi all,

I have a small paper in the corner of my mirror that says that...less is more..and  it is for me...I am overwhelmed by all the things to do and how fast and complicated life is...cars, freeways, appointments, gadgets...I long for a simple life. I would have the life of a hundred years ago if I could...

Don't have this simple life right now but that is my goal.  I wonder if I can create somewhat of  one in the big city or if I have to move to a small town in the country where time slows down...not really..but feels slower...moving with the rythyms of nature...

That is what I long for so much...nautre, sunshine, watching the grass grow, the cows eat in the pasture...the baby goats playing, simple living, crickets chirping, peace and quiet,  friendly neighbors, one grocery store,...and wow, am I far off from that right now!

I live near lots and lots of freeways...must be thousands of grocery stores! And luckily ....even though they seemed to have taken the goats that I loved to visit so much on the trail...(maybe to eat someone's field)...(hope they bring them back...) there are two new baby sheep in the next field over with their two parents!!

I would love to hear if anyone lives in such a place ....I know nothing about country living really since I grew up in a big city...but I have lots of magazines now that I ordered about country life and they are very comforting to me...pictures of baby goats always making me feel warm inside...
