Goal #1 – Take Full Advantage of Having My Husband Home 24/7 On Monday it snowed 8 inches, but by the time Friday rolled around the HH and I were both working hard in the garden from sun up to sun down. Our house doesn’t have gutters {maybe it’s a New England thing because of all the snow that accumulates in winter? I don’t know}. So we are moving the pea gravel a little at a time to where the snow melt hits on the ground but it’s been slow going. Our current outdoor projects include removing the previous owners...

Goal #1 – Take Full Advantage of Having My Husband Home 24/7 The HH pulled Manny out of his winter hibernation, fired him up and tilled up the {soon to be} raspberry and asparagus beds. We are still waiting for our plants to arrive in the mail, they were supposed to be here a few days ago but I think pretty much every seed company is swamped right now, so they’ll be here when they get here I guess.

And just in time too! Three days after we finished, the ground froze. Goal #2 — Garden, Garden, Garden The day before the ground froze we planted a row of arborvitae trees along one side of the fence and moved 6...

Goal #1 — Spend More Time Doing What I Love I think we only have about 60% of the boxes unpacked, but the best part is all nervous energy is gone and I don’t even care that we’re sleeping on a mattress on the floor or that our stuff is strewn all over the house.  In another week or so things will be in their place, we’ll have a proper bed to sleep in and I’ll have found the hairdryer. Moving is super stressful, but all the hard stuff is over now {well, the HH does still have to put...
