WELCOME!!!

I've been reading more and more books, articles and blogs about people who are really living what they believe about the environment, health, simplicity, self-sufficiency, sustainability, animal rights etc.

For a long time I haven't felt that I've been doing this, except in a superficial and inconsistent sort of way. This blog is a wake up call to myself to start taking small steps to living a more principled, less hypocritical life.

Right now I live in a two bedroom apartment with no backyard or balcony, with plans to eventually buy a house with a back yard or at least a unit with a patch of soil that I can work with. We also plan to have children in a few years. I want to start researching the information and learning the skills that I'll need to move toward having a sustainable lifestyle within our house and within our family as it grows.
