Guess what? I have actually missed this little micro-corner of the internet for this little blog of mine. Life got crazy for a while: home-building (quite literally), infants, 2020, toddlers, unfinished home projects, growing kids, life demands… the list could go on forever. But alas, I’m here again. I’m happy to see you. I’m happy to have some space, growth, freedom, bits of joy and lots of light and laughter as I navigate this beautiful life I get to create.

Lots of dreams and ideas for the year(s) ahead. Excited to see a lot of plans come to life! Last year, on Saturday, March 14th, the weekend the Stay at Home Order for Covid went into place we got 7 chickens! Actually, we got 8 but one turned out to be a rooster! He found a new home at a rooster sanctuary in the hills near where we live. I like to think he’s doing much better there than bossing around our sweet “Ladies” as I call them. They’ve been producing eggs since August which has been amazing because we haven’t bought eggs since! Through September and October we had lots of extra eggs to share with family and friends, which was nice.

Anyways, we need to finish the chicken area. It’s a messy, stinky, somewhat ugly side yard with a LOT of potential. But first, here’s a little recap:

I’ll post next time about what this area looks like now and how I plan to clean it up!! In that last picture you can see all the leaves around my feet… those need to be blown and raked up for starters…

Cheers!
