Well, a lot has happened since my last post.  We moved to the farm full time in the fall of 2012.  My husband has switched jobs to being a teacher to have summers off.  I have cut my work hours to half time and work from a home office.  We built a chicken coop and have 15 chickens, had gardens this year that we could preserve, bought a used golf cart to aide in spraying deer repellant on our fruit trees, berries and vines, and have started trying to decrease our spending (even more).  The best deal I have found is exchanging our cell phone plan to a 2,000 minute per year plan from Page Plus Cellular for $80 per year.  We weren't ready to let it go, due to our old (paid for) cars.  I have learned about building, and am trying to fill in while my husband is out working.  What a great place to be!  I am working on a self-study of permaculture at this time.
