Chiloquin Oregon. It’s gorgeous isn’t it? Those trees are on the neighboring plat, the rock outcropping is to the South-East, which is going to make for some awesome sunrises. Believe it or not, this is zoned as a residential neighborhood. Rural residential (which means animals are okay) but still residential. My inner rock hound is [...]

Now I lay me down to nap, a finished sock upon my lap. If I die before I wake; that second sock I won’t have to make.

Not a weed. A wee teeny orange tree. It’s the leaves. The leaves have grown out and given it away as an actual orange tree of some kind. Since I don’t know which part of the seed it sprouted from there’s no telling if it’s identical to one parent or a cross between the seed [...]

This is little Eggmond, he’s only 2 days old, but soon he’ll have a full head of luscious wheat grass hair. Lexi made two egg heads but she’s refused to allow me to photograph them because she wants to post them on her blog. For some reason I thought this project would be a little [...]

Well, not much anyway. I found a good 3/4 gallon of paint, the color we used in the living room and dining room, stashed away.  I cracked it open and repainted. I made it through the entire living room. That kept me busy for a day. Then I plotted out my garden, but I still [...]

Since the sprouting it hasn’t grown much, just this side of two inches– I’m almost confident that its a real orange tree sprout and not [...]

It’s not that horrible, at least that’s what I tell myself. I tell myself a lot of things when I’m sewing, things like “I’m never doing another craft show again.” (Lie.) Things like “This is so not worth the effort.” (Lie.) and “Next year I’m just going to buy gifts for everyone and not worry [...]

I love you– I really do. But we need to get a few things straight: My dogs will never be vegetarians. I appreciate your sentiment about my animals eating other animals, but they were designed to eat other animals so I’m not going interfere. Besides Greta’s bowels do bad things when she manages to get [...]

Honestly, I prefer days that are a cool 60 f (that’s 15.5 c for those of you that live in civilized countries) overcast to drizzling, and preferably with a nice chilly breeze. There is no sweater wearing on these gorgeous tropical sun drenched brightly lit days, my beautiful socks must stay in a drawer while [...]
