Time to Make Time

David and I are working on creating a school for learning the crafts of yesterday, organic gardening...and reopening his store. The spring/summer have been a very busy time for us. After working a public job, looking at a computer all day, I haven't really been wanting to look at another one at night..but alas, one must make sacrifices! :)
We set up a blog as an outlet for his nutritional knowledge. We named it Life Force 60...hopefully between the two of us, we'll put alot of helpful info out there. I know that my health has made tremendous strides to being the best I can be. I am eating healthier..and you know it doesn't take anymore of my time to do it right than it does to do it wrong..just have to make the committment!
Anyway, I'll probably be setting up another blog, for putting all my crafting ideas on...
and once we get the school establised and the store reopened, there will be plenty of stuff to talk about.
see ya soon.....

Wow....it has been some time

Just goes to show how you can get wrapped up in the things around you and not take time to post. Between the holidays, the chickens, remodeling the house...and working a full time job, looking at a computer in the evening is the furthest thing from your mind. Anyway, for an update. The remodel of our bedroom was started around the holidays...removal of carpet, building a new wall within the room, to enlarge the existing closet and add another closet. Very nice to have 2 closests...one for hanging clothes, one for folding clothes! The only furniture in the bedroom is minimal...bed, easy chair, small writing desk/chair, new flat screen tv hanging on the wall...and we're done! We put hardwood flooring down, painted the ceiling/walls, put up crown molding. God, our Father, knew what he was doing when He put David in my path! I don't believe there isn't anything that he can't do.....and the little he can't, I can! LOL....you know, knit, crochet...the small crafty stuff. With the advent of my first grandchild, he is learning to knit, so he can have a hand in the first afghan I'm working on for her. It's the Friendship Blanket from the 'last minute gifts' book. Very Grownup colors....gold/rust/purple/cream/brown....
of course there are the obligatory bibs, booties, bonnets.....this child won't be lacking in anything to wear!
The chicks are no longer chicks. they are now full-fledged Chickens! We started them on laying mash last week. We should be getting eggs soon. Probably more than we can or want to eat! but that's okay.....I'm planning on renewing my 'pysanky' talents! and now I won't have to buy eggs to do it!
We have started getting visits from the local deer at night, so we've put up an electrica fence to see if it will be a deterent for them. We have put in a small orchard of fruit trees, and we certainly don't need the deer to eat the new buds come spring time!
well, enough rambling for now....once i figure out how to post pics...then you can see the chicks...the garden...the craft village....all coming soon to a screen near you!
