I'm back...

I'm still learning, but I'm getting better.

My hope is for this blog to follow me as I work toward retiring and reaching my goal of living in a restored log cabin on a 2-3 acre farm and working toward self-sufficiency. The 'gold watch' event will be in February 2014 and I've tacked a countdown calendar on the wall above my computer. I wish I could mark the days off quicker - I am so ready to begin my new life.

I have established 6 main steps that I must complete to reach my goal. I'll list them in the next post. Currently I have one notebook in which I have listed these steps and the 'mini-steps' that will help me accomplish each main step. And one notebook to keep track of my thoughts and ideas. I suppose I'll eventually have notebooks for each of the six steps.

Posts here will be somewhat sporadic, mostly as I accomplish a mini-goal or if something occurs that affects my plans.
