The end and the start of planning

The title sounds like it is reversed.. it is.. that was the plan :)

This week has been one of those weeks.. my brain says I need more sleep and my body says HAHA not happening. The joys of living with pain every day (NOT!!) I never know how each day will go. Some days are okay as long as I move slowly (meaning not a long time spent on my feet, or trying to clean) other days are a little better where I can go for several hours before I sit down. If I do much more then that even on a good day I will pay for it. That is what happened this week.. I over did it last week (for a good reason but still over did it). but that is more than enough about the challenges in my life...

I made the title silly because we finished a book that we were reading to plan,  and yet we find that after reading it,  we have lots more planning to do.  But that is not a bad thing. The planning is all about moving to a place where we can spread out (1 acre is not enough space for us,  and the neighbors are way too close)

We are looking at saving Money for the property and the start of our homes on it (yes, more than one) so for the last 2 days Lisa and I have been playing with compounding interest and different types of accounts to save money. while this has been for a 9 year plan, it has been FUN!! With all that we have been doing both in our personal missions, and with Wear Creations being able to add this dream is HUGE! Getting a place that we can spread out and have breathing room is the life dream of some and the general feeling that we must be able to live off the land to survive...

The survival I am speaking of is not as much about personal, but about making the world we want our grandkids to live in, remembering our  heritage, and the spiritual path we follow. This is so much more than just eating and housing, the old arts our ancestors had that we now take for granted as we can buy anything and everything. The food that we plant/grow/harvest/butcher and eat. The cycle of life, the cycle of the seasons. All the things that are fast being forgotten. We need to keep them alive, and use them to teach the next generation.  So we have kids that grow up to be adults not kids in adult bodies, like so many do now.
