Well said Zen!

We are using our bikes for a lot of our weekly errands and driving only when we have to. I am making all our food at home - larger quantities to last a couple of days or several meals. We have gone to the basics - but then, we have rabbit ears and do not pay for cable, get no newspapers, watch our old DVDs of the Andy Griffith show or rental DVD movies - the older titles are cheaper. We eat out only on Saturdays at a local Mom and Pop that is like home to us. And the park near our home is my “free gym”. I can either walk there or cycle there and it is free. And now that we are getting into better shape physically, we can explore wider distances from the house with our bikes - yay!
