Freedom!

These last two days have been amazing. Just being able to get out and about has made a huge difference in Savanna and I's previously sour attitudes. I have to admit that we were getting on each others nerves and I'm sure that had something to do with the cabin fever produced by three weeks of living in a trailer without a vehicle. It's also taken some of the stress off Daddy, AKA Wayne, who doesn't have to worry about going out in the evenings to grocery shop or taking us out all weekend to drive around.
We haven't strayed far these last two days but what we have done has been worth it's weight in gold for mommy daughter relations. We did simple things like go to the grocery store followed by a stop at the park, story time at the library and going for ice cream-my personal favorite! Ah, sweet freedom!
Today I also inadvertently forgot my phone, hence no pictures, but it was nice. I actually enjoyed not being attached to it and I think I will attempting to unplug more often.
Supper tonight featured some of our very own garden bounty, imported 700 kilometers to our trailer. Mmm sweet corn-there's nothing like it. I loved going home to see piles of produce waiting for us. Squash, very early, I might add, zucchini, loads and loads of giant zucchini, sweet corn, beans, potatoes and onions. I had many happy bonfire guests taking home produce by the bag load. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of knowing that what you're eating is 100% organic goodness.
