Welcome! Come sit with me and have some tea!
Allow me to introduce myself. I am a wife, a mom, a soapmaker, a part time secretary, a wanna be writer, an amateur gardener, an animal lover, a crocheter, a cook, a bread maker, a lector, a eucharastic minister and much more. My interests are many and varied and I lead a very busy life. Even though I am now 51 years old, I am not going to let age stop me from doing the things I want to do.
I have 4 daughters and I have been married for to Frank for 31 years now. We also have 2 granddaughters now as well as two son in laws. I am homeschooling Emily, my 13 yo, and have homeschooled her from day one. I also homeschooled Kati, who is now 19, from 6th grade on.
We are endeavoring to live a simple Christian and unmaterialistic life in a secular world. We live on a small holding (1/5 of an acre) of land, in a small cottage that is well under 1000 sq. ft. It was built in 1969 and is in need of much work. We raise goats for milk and for soapmaking and chickens for eggs. We are traveling the path of sustainable living, but have far to go. It is a learning process and we certainly have much to learn. Please join me as I share the musings of my daily life, it’s highs and lows, accomplishments and disappointments and all the random thoughts that pass through my brain each and every day.
