I think it be beautful that your husband give you the turkey scissors because you are woman, and cooking good food for your family is part of your God given job. Your man surely knows how to be strong and bring you land so that it may be worked so that you may keep having many children. It is ok to spoil the boy( only boy) from time to time with the cd as the girls like to listen to the music, so he must impress them to get them to try and want to be his wife. You seem like good strong woman like God wanted.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14736937108132849099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-57864280101089959142006-12-15T18:02:00.000-06:002006-12-15T18:02:00.000-06:00I am totally intrigued by how you are able to simp...I am totally intrigued by how you are able to simplify your life. With all of the hustle and bustle, it's so hard for me to do. I wish I could though. It's my own fault really. I just need to make the time.Billyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10753509148757883091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-1682916376473744812006-12-15T17:48:00.000-06:002006-12-15T17:48:00.000-06:00I agree with Chelee.

I feel I am a fairly responsible comsumer, I do buy the occasional impulse item, but for the most part we live simply-like you. For that I don't need to belong to a webring.BurdockBoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01174758566322248274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-14793599338479027222006-12-15T15:10:00.000-06:002006-12-15T15:10:00.000-06:00The fool, true.

I thought it would be a good thing for me, but I am coming to find that I don't have the problem I thought I had with buying. <br /><br />abbagirl74, A lot of the things I have, were given to me. I have pots and pans from my mom that she used when I was a child. My husbands parents buy things for us at auctions. Now, how am I doing what?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-38467962450902854752006-12-15T13:11:00.000-06:002006-12-15T13:11:00.000-06:00I don't think you should give up any more in your ...I don't think you should give up any more in your lifestyle than you already have. I do want to know, are you allowed to accept items from people and use them? I am mostly talking about household items that would make work easier. I am intrigued by how you are doing this. I sometimes wish I could make it simpler as well.Billyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10753509148757883091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-72538081947720224992006-12-15T11:24:00.000-06:002006-12-15T11:24:00.000-06:00In my opinion, the compact was started with the mi...In my opinion, the compact was started with the mission of becoming aware of our purchases.

To break from the current - to "deterritorialize" - and create productive counter-flows seems to me to be the point. From a number of such counter-flows, there may come an eddy, and from enough eddies...perhaps a change in the current.<br /><br />There is no "one-size-fits-all" cure to the current situation. There are too many flows. But I see a lot of people making the effort to understand their place in the stream, and act accordingly. You included.<br /><br />All efforts are to be commended. We're all on the same team.The Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962641109795032438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-79096077905448332592006-12-15T10:15:00.000-06:002006-12-15T10:15:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962641109795032438noreply@blogger.com
