In all comments I have v=never read the following: the comparison trick. Compare your nett income per hour to what you want to buy. For easiness sake lets say you earn nett 6 (dollars, pounds, euro) oer hour, that is 1 per 10 minutes. Now, you want to buy on impuls an icecone, it is 1,75. If you had to work 17,5 minutes before you could buy that icecone, would you really do that? Or work an hour to be allowed to buy a magazine? Those 17,5 minutes would buy you a whole organic bread, that magazine 2 kg. apples and 10 bananas. Make your choice, please. Saves you from many impuls bought unnecesary things. From my youth I am used to swing, knitting, mending, cooking from scrap and picking hedgerowfruits and preserving. We are lucky to have a goof though not high income. Yet I bought two as new summerjackets (one for cycling, to warm to walk in) for just 5 euro's.<br /> like it when I find clothes to my liking and of good quality looking better then my own 1 year old drycleaned storebought clothing. I am starting this month your liquid soap, as I have used up all of the soaps I bought at shopclearances, I still know how my mother washed with soda, green (that is the liquid lye) soap and Sunlight bars and a scrubber and wooden board in a tub and druing on the washinglines.

I'm knitting socks and listening to the birds. My husband has just planted my "mailbox" garden for the second year in a row - cherry tomatoes, hot peppers, basil and a few other things - the only sunny place in our yard. I've picked up your book a few times this morning to read a bit. So relaxing on this Saturday morning . . . this is my version of the simple life.Pammienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-87086644337528470492012-05-04T19:13:31.321+10:002012-05-04T19:13:31.321+10:00Happy news about your editor and your nephew.
