Hey Reader! ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป The warmer weather has arrived, and we’ve planted the gardens! It’s a busy time of year, especially this year as we’re expanding our ability to grow more of our own food. While it’s a lot of work, especially during the expansion, it’s also a lot of fun. We all need interesting projects that we can enjoy outside of our work.

Hey Reader! ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป I donโt know about you, but for me it felt like this week just flew by so quickly! Life can get so busy as we try to juggle all the balls. Iโve got my work out for me for the next few evenings as well, as I had a dump truck drop off 14 cubic yards of garden soil that I need to move to various gardens around the house. And I need to move it all by hand. I guess itโll be a great way to get some exercise in! We are putting in some new gardens, as we keep looking to improve our…

Hey Reader! ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป I just got back from a trip to Punta Cana, where I soaked up lots of sunshine and even more relaxation. โ๏ธ๐ด It was good to get away and take time to just be. I didnโt need to worry about what needed to get done, or to think about how I could make things better, or whether I would be on time. It was just time to sit and relax. That time to relax and unwind does so much good for the body, the mind, and the soul. I already had an article mostly drafted and ready to share with…
