Well. so, its the middle of the month. I made goals for this new year, well, specifically for this 4 months that im not taking classes.
they are to write here at least once a week
have potluck on friday nights and one work night a week
walk the dog twice a day ( he is just soooo much happier when he gets walked.. otherwise he sleeps allday and then goes CRAZY whenever anyone walks in)
make bread weekly
finish the house.

This seems a bit over ambitous to me, since im growing the babe and all that, but still, i figured i could harness the power of nesting and get it done.
We got the upstairs kitchen totally moved into the downstairs, and painted it a gorgeous green. Today hopefully, we are moving all the CRAP thats in my office/artroom/workspace into the upstairs kitchen, and then this weekend the boys can work on building the wall for the big room.
We are gonna divide it up and put sonya and norm’s kids in it, and heather and maybe one day Travis. We sure are a stuffed house, but it is really nice.
The rest of my mind is devoted to thinking about the garden. I hope that planning and sorting and trading seeds will keep me from freezing to death, and so far its working. We are hopeing to go 80% self sustainable next winter, so that means that this garden is super important, which is hard, since the babe will be coming right around planting time.

More tomorow, with thoughtfulness and prose perhaps.
