I am thinking… that a trip to the Yarn store without any little people along for the ride would be a lovely thing. [...]

FOR TODAY, Wednesday April 15, 2009 Outside my window… the spinach, peas and swiss chard have been planted. I am thinking… Caroline Ingalls (mother of Laura Ingalls Wilder) was quite a gal. Journeying with her husband and small children to an unknown area, planting gardens, building a home while tending to children, without the use [...]

FOR TODAY, Wednesday April 8, 2009 Outside my window… the garlic is coming up! I am thinking… that I'll be planting some spinach and peas outside! They can go in as soon as the ground can be worked, and I tested today and I can drive a shovel down 6", and turn the soil over, [...]

FOR TODAY, Wednesday April 1, 2009 Outside my window…there is bare ground! The snow is still around in little patches, but the garden area has thawed.

FOR TODAY, Wednesday March 25, 2009 Outside my window is a whole world I need to explore. I have spent far too much time inside lately. Being very pregnant in the snow and ice tends to keep you inside, as a fall in the 8-9 month could be a big problem. For this reason I [...]

I didn't have much fun to share yesterday, it was a rough day. But today was much better. Great stuff that happened: 1) I was able to have the pre-op blood draw done at my own OB GYN with my fabulous phlebotomist. Very low stress! 2) Talked to the anesthesiologist about my concerns for a [...]

FOR TODAY, Wednesday March 11, 2009 Outside my window… There is mud! Lots of it. We, in New England, like to say we are looking forward to Spring, as the season that follows Winter, but really there are 5 seasons, here. There is Mud season, which falls between Winter and Spring. This is when the [...]

FOR TODAY, Wednesday March 4, 2009 Outside my window… Chickens are playing in the dirt. They have had a rough day. We found out that what I thought was a molt, is not, but rather is Northern Poultry Mites. Some of the girls have been pecking each other and have caused wounds. None of this [...]
