Bad Human! Don't take chemicals from strangers.
A journal of J. and I's attempt to live a simpler, greener life.

Working--very slowly sometimes--toward homesteader status, but thinking about it and writing about it a lot...

Balancing the desire to kick and scream for change with the need to be gentle on my family and those around me. A slow but steady transformation to a more simple, sustainable, sane life.
