Hey, Bat Goddess, you sound like my kind of person.

I yearn to live that sort of simple life!   Yes - I know it's complicated to do coz you've got to do everything instead of buying it. Some my best friends have just (a year ago) bought a house with an acre of land. They're growing most of their fruit & veg., also eggs & sheep nearby. I was helping them dig a pond last week.

Get away from dependence on big corporations!
