Gratitude

The other day I was thinking about have self-sufficient I can really be. I was amazed at some of the things that I can do for myself if I have to.
Food- I can cook food myself and have grown some vegetables. I won the Kale lottery this year :-) and beets and turnips weren't too bad.
Clothing- I do know how to sew and knit so if I absolutely had to I could make my own clothes and socks.  Shoes are not on the availability list yet but you never know what the future holds
Shelter- Ok I must admit that I am totally helpless when it come to fixing this in or around my house
Entertainment- I can play the cello for music, if I kept it up.

Anyway, I am glad to know that I CAN do these things but even more grateful that I don't HAVE to do this. It is strictly an optional endeavor at this point
