ABOUT ME
I'm Leigh Meyer. I'm a designer, wife, mother, recycler, dreamer, very quiet activist and concerned humanitarian. This blog is a look into my family's attempt to consume less for one year.

Hi, sometimes you just don’t feel like blogging. I’ve visited you quite a few times since your last post, and have just found that you are closed for now.
Hope all is oK, and if it is not, that things get better soon.

I was just thinking of you today and noticed you haven’t been around much. So then I hopped on over here to find this.
I hope you are ok (and just happily busy!).
