Lazy Day

Today, it is chilly, but sunny, and I am off from my job. What a predicament since I know that I have tons to do, but I am enjoying the quiet and the peace of just sipping some hot coffee and catching up on the YT channels I like to follow and being all around lazy. I am working hard on trying to get motivated to get the house tidy and getting ready to move, even though that is several months away, some unset date in the future.

I think the hardest part about the whole ordeal with waiting to move so we can get a bit closer to our homestead life is being patient. Right now, I work with other homesteaders and get to help them get closer to their goals, but its soooo frustrating because I just want my time to be now. That being said, patience is a homesteading virtue. And while I do not get to go tend to MY chickens, I am bettering myself and constantly educating myself to be better.

Sometimes, I have to make hard choices, what homesteader doesn't? And right now, those choices are about what I will plant in the yard, or won't I plant in he yard. And where will I invest my money and if my investments of time and money are sound ones. But I digress, right now, today, I am going to enjoy my coffee, and get up so that I can make my life a little easier down the road by sorting through my crafting supplies and patching some clothes that have been waiting to be patched.

And one last note, my little sistr is coming to visit me, and I couldn't be happier. We are taking a drive down to Florida, where she is currently living, and I'm going to help her get her back yard set up to be a true, permaculture homestead. While she isn't as interested as I am, in maintain a full fledged farm/homestead, having a nice yard that produces food with minimal work is REALLY appealing to her. So that whole journey is probably going to be a YT video

'little' sister and I. Pssst, she's taller than me! 



Stay busy, guys! Summer and warmer days are almost upon us, and I know that you guys are going to be getting ready for the busy and craziest time for most homesteaders, so plan accordingly!
