slowing down.........

when i was in college in the late 70's and early 80's i felt a connection to the 'back to the land' movement that was still in full swing.  well, maybe not FULL swing.  but it was still pretty evident. i had a feeling that there would come a time, likely in my lifetime, when we would need to have people in our midst (and our communities) who knew how to do 'old' stuff.  growing and preserving food, spinning yarn and knitting/weaving fabric, making soap.  etc.  since i was attracted to those sorts of activities, i learned as many of them as i could. over the years i also studied massage therapy, studied medicinal herbs, and a number of other related topics.     but in more recent years i've found myself in situations where i've been unable to garden.  unable to grow herbs.  i've had difficulty finding community in the area where i live.  and recently i ache for simplicity in my life.   i ache for connections.  i ache to return to the path that i only ever skirted around the edges of.   

my intent is to use this blog to help me sort out my thoughts.   prioritize.  plan.  dream.   and maybe grow a little.

Hey, welcome! Hurrah another earth girl. We're definitely a minority around here . . .

But this is an excellent place to get information.

Nice to "meet" you.
