Surviving with no connected services taught me much.

some, if not most, would have suffered greatly -

the challenge made me stronger,

and wiser.

Although I no longer really need to be that frugal - I'm keeping my habits from the "survival" stage.

I get lots of outside time which I love, and exercise to keep my old body tuned a bit

and extra $$ for , which I also love.

Reminds me, my rain barrels are full.

time to do some laundry
