Welcome!

Welcome to my blog. This is going to start out slow, but I hope it will grow. I live in the driftless region of southwestern Wisconsin, a beautiful area through which flow the Mississippi and Wisconsin Rivers. I love nature and I enjoy knitting, sewing and pretending to be crafty when I can find the time. I strive for simplicity. I look back fondly on the days when everything I owned fit in my car. I dream of living off the grid in a tiny house. In the meantime I live day to day, trying to simplify, trying to convince my husband that it would be lovely to live without so much "stuff". I do not think I am doing a very good job of it but we learn and grow day to day.
