Gorgeous weather again today! In Science class we played outside. We observed shadows and made a sundial on the cement with rocks and a stick. The kids were so excited by this simple demonstration! In Farm class the kids played "horse herd". They all had a ball. I can't stand being indoors when it's 50 degrees out in January! Makes me want to start planting things...but like every year this time, when I get all excited for spring, a cold front moves in and it snows or something. There are so many projects I can't wait to get started outdoors and I can't wait to write about them. I'm going to make a lean-to greenhouse using eight sliding glass doors I got free off of craigslist. And I'm going to make six raised vegetable beds so I can use the existing garden on the back property line for corn and pumpkins. I also need to refinish some antique furniture, paint the small bathroom, build another bedroom, remodel my bathroom, move my washer and dryer, re...........you get the picture. I'm going to trim Meggie's nails now. And she's barking, at what I don't know. Oh, it's her little stuffed bee which she's proceeding to tear the rest of the guts out of. Ahhhhhh, love her! :)
Favorite part of today- Sunshine all day
One thing- One thing I love about my girls is their willingness to learn!
Ups and downs, dreams, challenges, DIY projects, lots of laughs!! Home-ownership, raising children, financial struggle, longing to be more self-sufficient. An excuse to pause a moment and share my experiences, strengths, and hopes. Someone, somewhere, might be able to learn from my successes and failures and if so, my heart will be happier!
