They have a pretty good set up with sprinklers running throughout so it makes watering easy but there is a far bit of upkeep and knowing what to plant when and next to what!

I also have a garden in my new place so I'd probably start growing basic vegs or herbs. if you have any pointers on these, let me know! <br /><br /><a href="http://www.katrinasophia-blog.com/" rel="nofollow">Katrina Sophia Blog</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00935575913367575498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203581539426986027.post-52653446345895043872014-04-04T09:01:33.236+10:002014-04-04T09:01:33.236+10:00Ahh this was nice to read Damaris!
On the flipsid...Ahh this was nice to read Damaris!<br /><br />On the flipside to my thoughts I think sometimes having a very stable job can be a whole lot less stressful too - you know you're getting this amount in and there is a lot of comfort in that. I probably would be where I was if hadn't felt that extreme level of being devalued and I'd be happy but it's nice to know you can still be okay if your circumstances change :) I have definitely always blogged as a happy outlet too - keep on blogging (I super love reading your blog!!!)Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17063109012892637742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203581539426986027.post-20532417757057754602014-04-03T22:44:32.123+10:002014-04-03T22:44:32.123+10:00Thanks Fee for bringing this topic to all of us to...Thanks Fee for bringing this topic to all of us to think about, love your boldness in your decision choosing happiness. A big big congrats! it is so so interesting how do you explain all the food alternatives we all really have to cut down expenses. Please keep us updated with more! :) I have lately been thinking a lot about this, I (except that I could add Dani as well here) have been working like crazy for the couple months, driving us quite mad (not in a good way & feeling exhausted), so a lot of how to deal with this feeling have been occupying my mind. Our blog is a huge happy shelter for us, a place to forget about this, so we have been using it unashamedly as our scape, also checking other people's blogs (like yours! :P) are giving us that much needed portion of happiness. I guess it not only depends on seizing that (rather sadly unfrequent) "us" moments but right now I'm too a scaredy cat to have a bigger change.Damaris // The cat, you and ushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17916541578625841422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203581539426986027.post-67623828248598373402014-04-03T01:48:55.328+10:002014-04-03T01:48:55.328+10:00i love this post so much. i've been trying to ...i love this post so much. i've been trying to articulate why i left my job last july and how we've been juggling life with one income and where i am about going back {or not} to the career path i've built and what the future holds for me. I'm definitely happier and i don't regret quitting at all. but lately i've been super paranoid about my future and wonder if I should go back or not. your post made me feel at ease and now want to tackle my thoughts on this whole topic! thanks for getting the ball rolling for me.
