Barn-Raising: November 2009
http://barn-raising.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Our learning journey on and off the farm. Tuesday, November 24, 2009. What they chose to do today. Jesse started a screenplay that is already five pages, printed out and cast, ready for its first day of shooting tomorrow with Eli, Alexander and Gillen. There will be more actors added on Friday. Right now, props and masks are being created. In his spare time he cracked many pecans from the farm for the pie. We're all still cracking now, while watching SYTYCD and we are only half way there. Magazine came t...

Barn-Raising: December 2009
http://barn-raising.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Our learning journey on and off the farm. Thursday, December 17, 2009. In the midst of the usual sibling wrestling and screaming, there was this - an inspired moment of giving. Gillen got up before Jesse did and decided to make him breakfast and bring it to him in his room. For a moment, Jesse said, he thought it must be Christmas. Labels: Gillen and Jesse.

How Many clothes Does One Need? February 7, 2009 at 5:29 pm ( challenge. So I need a plan. I need to decide exactly how many pants, skirts, shirts, blouses, sweater, jackets, and coats to keep. Do any of you out there subscribe to the system where each time you buy a new item, an equivalent item has to go? If you do, then how do you get to the starting place where you decide you have enough? So how many of each item of clothing do you have? February 8, 2009 at 1:11 am.

http://heirloomgardening.blogspot.com/2010/01/whats-next.html
Would You Eat Them With A Fox? I would not, could not, in a box. I could not, would not, with a fox. I will not eat them with a mouse. I will not eat them in a house.

Barn-Raising: Learning something new
http://barn-raising.blogspot.com/2010/02/learning-something-new.html
Our learning journey on and off the farm. Friday, February 12, 2010. In addition, waiting for Gillen to come out of his guitar class one day, I bought a keyboard. I've been reteaching myself piano (it's been thirty years). Crazy, eh? Of course, when you are surrounded by kids who have the freedom to follow every new passion and whim where it may lead, you tend to want to follow suit. Especially when they are old enough that there is room in the day to do so. Labels: learning about learning. I learn every...

Our learning journey on and off the farm. Friday, November 05, 2010. Giving up control over my kids' food choices was a long, hard road. Floating, taunting GMO, pesticide, dye and corn syrup monsters. Would swirl around my head, laughing at my inability to protect my kids, every time they ate anything that wasn't organic or was too processed. I didn't always. I'm glad to have let go of the protective health fanatic persona that used to try to run the show. Now, food is a dance between following our s...

Our learning journey on and off the farm. Saturday, October 16, 2010. Playing a great new board game that we bought a few weeks ago, Settlers of Catan. We have played most every day since:. Not me." Great debates ensue with no one thinking they are going to change anyone's mind, they just love the debate. I'm grateful for all of our friends, near and far.
