Stronger...

maybe. I am walking the dogs up to four times a day now.
We have moved to a much smaller house and I am happier about it. Though I am still living in box hell, but I am seeing improvement. My little house is right at 100 years old, so the electric in here is a worry. The roof in the garage leaks, but the holes in the fence are repaired.
I have planted a few veg around the yard as a start on the garden. Fall gardening has been planned but I have not started it yet. I am thinking of putting in some straw bales as a raised bed. The composter is cooking happily along. The yard is coming out of the poor state of neglect that it was in. Life looks much better to me.
There are a couple of issues with the house, there is no back up heating system. There is no gravity fed water collection system. These things can all be fixed.

Don't forget that a penny saved is a penny earned... only if you do not spend it on something else.
