I am new at all of this!!!!
Hi,
I am new at this and I am not too sure what or how to do this. But it seems like it might be interesting, so I will give it a try. I am older,well past the computer era but try to stay up to date on these things.
I live in the western part of the country. I love the simple lifestyle, just don't need or want alot of things. I like basics, love to knit, cook , read and play on the computer.

Welcome kaykay. I'm pretty new here too. It's alot of fun, people are so friendly and these folks have so many great ideas. I have become a more frugal and self sufficient person, because of them. Just go and post anywhere that interests you. The friendly people here will do the rest.

Pretty new also. I enjoy this site so much. All the encouragement from people you don't know and probably will never come face to face with, but you know that they are there when you need them.
Welcome and thanks everyone.
