I’m revising my posting schedule to bring you a brief summary of my day. It will be of interest to my sisters if no one else. However, the people who have been reading my blog have become acquainted, in a sense, with my mother. Most of this will be about her resting place.
My Sunday was [...]

This week had its ups and downs and, at one point, I unloaded on DD and merm. They sympathized and empathized and assured me they are proud of me. I’d gotten over my pity party and was going to tell all about it tonight but then I heard that Randy Pausch had lost his battle [...]

DD was thrilled. I decided to take a break from school and let her play to her heart’s content. She was bundled up from head to toe and went outside. I wasn’t quite so brave. She always wanted me to see what she was doing which is why I was in the greenhouse watching her. [...]

I’ve been watering my little garden every day to keep it green and growing. The people I work with who have conventional gardens either have to water or let their gardens burn to a crisp. We haven’t had a good rain for weeks. There’s been a smattering here and there but it’s getting scary dry [...]

until October. I went by today to get one of his most excellent cantaloupes. They were out and down to a very small selection of other produce. Imagine my dismay when I was greeted with the news that today would be their last day for THREE MONTHS give or take. I’d gotten a couple of [...]

Homeschooling. It sounds very Mother Earth-like. Actually, it is. The first teacher most children have is the mother whether she realizes it or not. My mother would describe children as “sponges” ready to soak up whatever was around them. I like to think of them as little tape recorders—maybe these days they’d be MP3 players [...]

This is aka Mac Cheese for short. My friend and faithful forum member, Shari, had her recipe posted on another site several years ago. Then, one of the members posted it on the forum right here. Shari said she’d take pictures to illustrate the steps but I’ve gotten a round tuit before she did. She [...]

This is a week’s worth of time I’ll never get back. I didn’t make notes. I didn’t have time and I wasn’t so inclined anyway.
To say it’s been horrendous would be the understatement of the year. I just thought I had stress before.
I’m getting ahead of myself. Sunday, I managed to get some sun. [...]

One day, DH came home brimming with excitement. He didn’t like living in the cramped little house any more than I did and he’d been asking around. One of the tips sounded very interesting and he came to get DD and me to go check it out. We piled into the Peugeot and, with directions [...]
