Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Friday, January 21, 2011. Having an active fantasy life is a pretty amazing thing. Now that I’m doing so much armchair travelling, it seems that the weight of the world is getting lighter by the day. That said, I haven’t managed to escape reality entirely, as happened recently upon the death of one of our old sheep. I write about this now because it is snowing and Sasha is away getting better so I’m the one who’s just...We tend t...

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Monday, March 29, 2010. The miserable cold with which I’ve been afflicted has lingered on and on, causing the last week to have become a total blur. Apart from crawling to the barn twice a day to feed the animals, I have spent most of that time in bed, coughing and wheezing and lapsing in and out of sleep. It’s a good thing my professional workload has been light. In the meanwhile, having wrapped his film in the city, Sasha came ...

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Friday, December 31, 2010. In the four months that have ensued since my last post, the “sturm und drang” that heralded my leaving home have morphed into something else as my husband and I have both had time to process the events of the late summer. Over time the iciness between us has melted and by now we have grown close again, sometimes even able to really talk. With the next chapter far from written and the words just beginnin...

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Saturday, June 5, 2010. I am definitely more of a “broad” than anybody's notion of a “girlie girl.” An old boyfriend once disparagingly compared my walk to that of a football player and, despite a certain verbal grace, everybody knows that I can. Nightdress, a treasure purchased years ago in Boston, recently became tattered beyond redemption and turned out to be hideously expensive to replace. Not sold in Canada, and availabl...

The Llama's Pyjamas: October 2011
http://thellamaspyjamas.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Sunday, October 9, 2011. It’s Thanksgiving weekend and I am quite sick, which may be a good thing since this is the first time in twenty years that I’ve had to navigate this holiday entirely on my own. It is a simple thing, but this year it will be enough. We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love. Canadians Against Proroguing Parliament. Cooking eggs. The Oscars.

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Monday, April 5, 2010. To my great delight, the spring peepers arrived two weeks early this year, just days after the croaking bullfrogs let their presence be heard in our pond. Although we can’t actually see them, falling asleep at night with their magical mating music streaming through the open window is one of my favourite manifestations of spring. We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Sunday, August 22, 2010. It is early Sunday morning of the last weekend I will spend as a permanent resident of this old house. He is upstairs in the second bedroom, asleep under the same roof for the first time in six weeks, and I am here in the room we made into an office, reminding myself that a week from today I will be drinking my morning coffee somewhere else. It is hard. Canadians Against Proroguing Parliament. TWO WOMEN A...

Searching for a life of the mind while living a practical life on the farm. Sunday, August 28, 2011. It would seem that a new life can come at a person from any direction, even from an old one. With the gentle rain falling outside my window, I am looking forward to an indulgent day of reading, curled up on one of my pretty new love seats, with an old cat purring on my lap. Plays out, doesn’t mean it is always a bad one or that it won't be fulfilling for me. We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come a...
