NEWS! In this case is stands for North, East, West, South. Direction! It’s something I’m struggling with lately in regards to my blog. I’m in a rut and I feel a bit lost on which direction I should take my blog. I want it to be in a place that makes me happy, because ultimately I need to be happyContinue reading “NEWS – Turning a Corner”

A Moment of “Oh No” Turned Around
I decided to start taking horseback riding lessons. Last Saturday the girls had a make up lesson so I was able to get back into the saddle after 9 months of not riding. I had forgotten some of the saddling details, but felt more comfortable in the saddle than I had previously. Monday was a regular lessonContinue reading “A Moment of “Oh No” Turned Around”
An Upcoming Visit to the Farmy
As we venture out to the world of RV ownership and travel, I still hold onto the hope that one day things will work out for us to own our own little homestead. We still strive to live a more self-sufficient lifestyle, by raising our own food. We are fortunate to have the space forContinue reading “An Upcoming Visit to the Farmy”
RVing and Living the Homestead Dream
While our upcoming RV adventure is exciting, there is still a big part of me that can’t let go of living our homesteading dream. What if we were to tow a chicken coop with some chickens for fresh eggs every morning? Of course it’s doubtful chickens would lay eggs in a coop traveling down theContinue reading “RVing and Living the Homestead Dream”
Polar Opposites
Some people seem to have very little difficulty making decision, even big ones. Hubby and I use to be those people, but it seems that those days are over. The decisions we make now, especially the big ones, take a lot of thought and consideration. If something in our life changes, we have to re-addressContinue reading “Polar Opposites”
Every New Beginning
I have a home to take care of. A home that includes 4 kids, 1 husband and 3 dogs. I homeschool, which means part of the day is spent on school work and planning homeschool related activities. I also spend time searching real estate listings for a home in the country. Something that is the rightContinue reading “Every New Beginning”
Whoa Nellie!!! It’s Cold Outside!!!!!!
Burrrrrr!!!! Teeth chattering!!!! Frost bite warning!!!!! It’s been dangerously cold here this past week. We also got snow. Not a lot. Only 3-4 inches, but enough that I needed to shovel the driveway, especially the end of the driveway where the snow plow pushed all the snow off the road. When I shovel, I have timeContinue reading “Whoa Nellie!!! It’s Cold Outside!!!!!!”
Wheat Flour
Because I bake so much from scratch, I use quite a bit of flour. One day I decided it was time to get a big ol’ bag of flour to reduce the number of times I was running out to buy more. I ordered a 50 lb bag of organic wheat flour and when it arrivedContinue reading “Wheat Flour”
Our Christmas Gifts to Us
Recently, hubby came home from work and wanted to talk to me about our homesteading dream. As he began spilling out all of his thoughts I sat there thinking, “He’s right.” Yes hubby, I said it publicly – You are right! 🙂 We’ve been waiting for the perfect moment. We’ve been waiting for that perfectContinue reading “Our Christmas Gifts to Us”
Should Have Known
When I was a little girl, the church we attended had a toy farm set. I loved playing with those toys. I would set up the fences, carefully place all the farm animals where they belonged and pretended to be the farmer. Guess I should have known that one day I would want my ownContinue reading “Should Have Known”
