    :somad Yup, I'd be so mad too. It'll pass, but I'd be demanding a nice long foot rub to "ease" my anger

    Organizing and decluttering the homestead

    Ha @baymule , that was us at our old house. We just didn't have room for anything. I think we may have moved a box that never got opened there (5 years) :hide . But now we have a big house, so everything got unpacked....sort of. There are things in the shop that need to be organized, but they're...

    Cold!

    When you live where winter means freezing water you just have to plan for that when you get animals. It's still a pain in the butt of course, but it's just a reality of living up north. This year I bought a heated dog bowl for my chickens and it works well. I don't like running an extension cord...

    Don't worry, it's not just you, and it's not just the pregnancy! I have the exact same issues with my DH. I try to balance out my frustration by remembering that his lack of planning also comes with the ability to go with the flow, and his lack of stress is %100 needed in this relationship...

    December Dreaming

    Well, my december dreaming is over. The ground is probably frozen down to the molten lava. Time to hibernate for the month, but I will make a january thread for those that can actually do something garden related!

    January Jump-Start (Garden Dream and Plan Thread)

    Given the weather, you'll be forgiven for thinking I'm talking about cars with my title :) But for many January is the time to actually get started on this years garden...even if that just means ordering seeds! Nothing is getting started in my house until February at the earliest, but there's...

    Organizing and decluttering the homestead

    Kitchen got cleaned! Not organized, but clean! We invite people over just to have the motivation and focus to clean up.:rolleyes: On my DHs birthday I did a clean of out of our bedroom; which is small and was totally out of control. Went into the city to do a big load of laundry because I had...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    No truck at my parents', and the expense of hauling long distance would be prohibitive. But it'll be here in the fall when they move so that's exciting! Everything is beyond frozen at the moment, but in the spring we may try pulling some more hay out if it isn't too wet. If not, I'll use what...

    Cold!

    I'm with Deb and NH, I came here to write "I'm tired of this cold". It was supposed to be "warmer" today. I'm looking out my window at huge white-out gusts of snow flying vertically across the fields. So even if the temperature is -8c (17f )the windchill is at -20 (-4f) or colder. Looks like...

    :welcome You've come to the right place! I'm new to this journey myself, and am taking it slow, also raising a toddler on the farm life :)

    Cold!

    Exactly lol. Says with wind chill it's -32c (-25f). I have to go out right now and get wood. I haven't managed to get the house up to 18c (64f) yet, but hopefully it will soon. And it's not like I haven't seen these temperatures before - but they don't usually last for a week, so that really...

    Organizing and decluttering the homestead

    Hey! So sorry to hear that! Pretty sure that's what my DH and I had a couple years ago, luckily the baby didn't get sick but we could barely look after him. We were staggered in our sickness by several hours so the "least sick" (i.e. whomever was vomiting less) person had to parent. Anyway, the...
