    Getting There

    Yesterday was amazing.  I worked out and rode the bike and went to town and than got back here for some food and round two.  I ended up getting to the welding, splitting, and siding.  It was fantastic, and I just kept going.  So good, and I’m set up for a great one….   Today

    Get in the Groove

    Yesterday was another really good one.  My workout was fabulous, then I walked the property and took the shipping out to the box, checked on all the ruminants and ducks, then back to the shack for a great push inside.  It rained like it was winter again, so I spent most of the day puttering

    I Get To

    Yesterday and the weekend were incredible.  I just rested, and as hard as it was to sit around, I killed it.  I was so, so spent from last week’s big fence push and I told myself to chill.  A week off from BWF and a whole weekend of sitting around has me feeling so, so

    On Food Independence

    Although I have been seeking self-sufficiency via food production for so very long, I want to be clear that I came to the solution seeking some other thing entirely.  There’s a lesson there, I’m sure.  Someone smarter tell me please. I have had enormous gardens, greenhouses and low tunnels, rows, swales, mounds, berms, hugelkulture, food

    Fenced In

    So stoked.  Yesterday was so fantastic.  I finished the new fence and have the critters compartmentalized, which will save me a ton in hay as we go into summer here.   I can now rotate them and should be able to avoid bringing in hay.  It was a ton of work and took me all of

    Going For It

    Yesterday was wonderful.  I started on the fencing early and had a lovely morning in the pasture and made a lot of progress.  Managed to stay with it most of the day and continued to knock out tasks and check things off the list.  It was a good one. Today is starting slow, and that’s

    Up and At ‘Em

    Yesterday was a good one.  I got in the excavator early and got things to a summer finish up here, spread some seed and raked it in, and then headed down for fencing chores.  Which I murdered, and got a long ways!  So great, and then I was tired.  Came up for lunch, and puttered
