Pretty self explanatory. First time for all of it. Harvested the wool, prepared it (minimally), hand spun it on a drop spindle, wound it by hand. I need to ply it. Not the greatest yarn, ob...

12 Days I must say that I felt no small amount of- not joy, not happiness, not contentment- but.. of what, exactly? Self importance… A certain sense of knowing that someone at least feels an obli...

The kids’ nativity scene that they can play with (it’s doesn’t last long set up lol) My cat is a one person cat. She hates everyone else but loves me- I’m her car mom since I found her when she ...

Done and no pics to show 😂 I swear I did finish like 90% of my list from before. The dino turned out so stinking cute. I’m bummed I didn’t get a pic. Oh but I did get a pic of this; Hah. This ...

I am humbled. I am more than humbled. I am Humiliated. I asked my unconscious. And. You know what? I did not respect it’s power. It did not worship it’s integrity. It had no thought for what my ...

I’m done. Absolutely done. I don’t want any more of your shit. I need you to just shut the fuck up. Listen to me for the first time in your life. Stop. Just stop. Listen. I can’t take the blame. ...

for Thanksgiving. I shouldn’t say just us, because I actually feel really warm, full and content to have 2 days of DH home, nothing going on to cook to my delight and let the kids sink into relax...

Started on the dinosaur, have some stars made/working on more, and made a wreath. Woo! Also dipped a few leaves in wax to see how they would come out and added back to our nature corner. Made an ...

Woolies And not even all of them. I’m not sure what I want to write. DH and I have had a lot of conversations, deep and.. exhausting. I’m so tired. It is a good tired. Like the tired after swim...

There are lots of ways that I am like my mother. I realized that I am still too angry to be productively curious about my mother. So, why am I angry? Because I am not safe. Still. I’m still not ...

how much I loved children and wanted to be a mom. Not just now, but my whole life. The feeling is so very refreshing- to experience this love of innocence and fierce dedication to my own babies....

I haven’t dreamt in quite awhile due to sleep problems. But the last week has been better. And now I’ve finally had a dream. For context, I listened to a podcast about what to ask your unconscio...

Goes on. Sometimes that is comforting. Sometimes it really isn’t. I would like for my own children to experience a slow, but very dear, childhood. I’ve gone a long way to providing that. And t...

Just finished this really cute sweater for Lexi. It’s the same front and back- so the shoulders are really not covered. Makes for more of a cozy outer layer sweater than the one I made previous. ...

I recently taught myself. Practicing on these baby/toddler socks that were my son’s and now fit my daughter. It’s more or less a sock again. Feels good to do things that create more life in othe...

I sort of just realized we’d been doing forest school for almost 2 months now and I never posted about it. Lol. It is SO MUCH FUN. And the late summer/autumn is just beautiful - my second favor...

are prisons. There is a neat side by side comparison on YouTube that I watched years ago (no I’m not going to find and link it, do you really think I have that much energy?) that featured public...

DH blitzed a deer last night. My poor car is totaled. I’m a little sad, in a sentimental way, just because it was the first car I ever bought - only car?!- and I have a ton of memories and shenan...

I’m still sad. I still feel melancholic. I am still down. But, I feel a lot better, today. DH and I had a pretty intense weekend. lol. It started out in crisis. Ended with sober and honest expre...

I’m taking a class by Lifeways. It’s supposed to be a social class but no one else joined yet. It just started today and goes for 3 weeks, so lots of time to see who will be joining. More or less...

I was young- how young I don’t know- I’ve had a melancholy overcome me in the autumn. I feel it now, if only in a far less intense, shadowy way. I was just thinking about the depths of depressio...

I was really attracted to Waldorf more for the philosophical aspects, but holy hell has it turned out to be a Godsend in my life. About 3? or 4 months ago I got more serious about putting in pla...
