It's been a little while since I posted last. I do have a pictures of my seedlings, but haven't uploaded it yet. My blueberry plant is growing too, which is nice...not that it will produce fruit any time soon.

I found David Suelo's blog and have been reading his entries. That's quite a way of life he has chosen, living moneyless. I plan on following his blog.

Also, in the last week, I discovered Freeganism. I watched some Youtube videos on dumpster divers, it sickens me to think we throw so much edible food away.

I got a new electric bill and am happy to report it has gone down, yeah for me. I continue to use the water I wash with, to flush my toilet. I stopped using the water from the clothes washer, just until I have something to filter the lunt from the expelled water. I don't need lint build-up in my toilet tank.
I still have alot to learn. The question that I keep bouncing around in my head is,"How much can I not spend?" Dumpster diving might disgust people, but if they didn't know that it was there, they might eat it and think it delicious.

Just one more word on the produce we discard in dumpsters. It could be a very good source for quality seeds to plant, instead of seeds that have sat on a shelf for who knows how long and won't sprout.
