FOR TODAY
Outside my window... the poplar leaves are blowing in the breeze.
I am thinking... I hope I'm not getting sick. :o/
I am thankful... that I have a lovely "future-farm" to go walk on today, but still have a place to live with people I love, until time comes to move to the farm.
From the learning rooms...my children are thriving here at school and I've only seen one B since the beginning!
In the kitchen... the beef stew Mama made smells wonderful and I can't wait for everyone to get home so we can all dive in!
I am wearing...one of my new favorites: my long, tiered, denim skirt, tie-dyed t-shirt and my Sketcher sandals that I love love love.
I am creating... a legacy for my children.
I am going... to go stake out the goats pen on the farm this afternoon. I hope! <3
I am wondering...if we should / could keep animals there before we move there ourselves?
I am reading... Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace. I am hoping... we will get a LOT done at the farm today.
I am looking forward to... just getting over there with a tummy still warm and full of home made beef stew!
I am hearing...the distant sound of a truck engine and wondering if it might be my tribe.
Around the house... there is always much to do- PILES of washing and folding to be done.
I am pondering... planting the orchard this next week and wondering if it's still a bit soon.
One of my favorite things... the smell of freshly cut hardwood.
A few plans for the rest of the week: Off to do birthy stuff tomorrow, then home to make more home-made laundry soap and probably more laundry. ;o)
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
I recommend you do NOT put the animals on the property until you are living there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful adventure! A new farm is so exciting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. I am really enjoying yours. Look forward to reading more about your developing homestead.
I totally agree with Paw. Thanks for stopping by my site as well. Happy to provide perspective.
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone. :o)
ReplyDeletePaw... yeah, I agree. I definitely need to live there before I have animals. I guess we will probably start with a few chickens and maybe a couple goats here. The lady of the house said we could so....
I wish I was as brave as you - moving to a farm, planting orchards and raising animals?? I could just about cope with raising kids!!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes :)
