Frugal is the way forward in my opinion. Will never go back and think the only we can preserve our worlds resources is for everyone to adopt frugality. I just felt I was becoming a little mean in my ways as I usually will share anything. My mistake in wording I'm sure.<br />hazzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07519396222208297420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1924828141658512007.post-83275488509299240802014-08-04T06:56:48.471+01:002014-08-04T06:56:48.471+01:00Being 'frugal' is not the same as being &#...Being 'frugal' is not the same as being 'mean'. Frugality is common sense, being wasteful is criminal. As for your off-grid lifestyle; they catch up with you in other ways.

It was one of the worst experiences of my life and at the end of it I was 10p over the limit and so wasn't entitled to anything and I had waited 4 hours in what was the labor exchange then to be told this. I came out feeling totally humiliated and swore that it would be an experience never to be repeated. Two years ago my eldest was out of work and you could not convince him to sign on for love nor money he had his last two pay packets from his previous job and he eeked that out to live on until he fortunately got another job. So I can totally understand where you are coming from and hope you get sorted out soon but keep smiling life can only get better.<br /><br />MitziLazy Days & Sundayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00981937294479619947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1924828141658512007.post-11454305554461489432014-08-03T16:57:20.145+01:002014-08-03T16:57:20.145+01:00Things will get better, stay strong.

I'm almost crippled with my spine and I do not claim any disability benefits as I couldn't cope with the hoops and stigma they now come attached with.<br /><br />Some people do cope easier than others, or is it that it just seems that way? I think everyone is fighting their own personal battle and we are all just managing the best we can.<br /><br />I hope you get sorted soon xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597069824333007603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1924828141658512007.post-61705181036884127992014-08-03T12:30:58.057+01:002014-08-03T12:30:58.057+01:00Minimal hassle sounds good to me too, if only thin...Minimal hassle sounds good to me too, if only things were that simple.
