Cloudy, waiting on rain and wind today. Mild temps in the 50’s. What do you do when you are a very tight budget and need to fill some garden beds? You use what is available naturally as much as possible that you can get for free. That may look different wherever you are. For instance,ContinueContinue reading “Leaf it to me.”

Just Blows You Away
This here states perfectly the idiocy of how certain people “think.” They can’t understand the concept that the atmosphere is heating due to human behavior and has been since the industrial revolution. But they believe that somehow humans are changing the weather with tech aiming weather around at a whim. Science is fake! Climate scienceContinueContinue reading “Just Blows You Away”
I’m not the only one who sees.
https://www.facebook.com/will.tveit/videos/858717552755116 I tried to embed the video, but a link is the best I could do. Stupidity is right. It’s dumbfounding. I’ve talked to smarter people then I in person to ask if they thought I was over reacting. One in particular is a lady i work for who helped invent the super computer. She’sContinueContinue reading “I’m not the only one who sees.”
Be Silent, Shut Up
Be a good little citizen as your neighbors get marched off to the gas chambers. As they get rounded up and deported or moved to concentration camps. We’ve seen this before in history and yet so many are willing to see it again, and are celebrating it. They celebrate a “man” who stood on stageContinueContinue reading “Be Silent, Shut Up”
Just been watching-
It’s been a couple months since I’ve really posted anything. I was tempted, considering all the crazy weather disasters that have been happening but I didn’t feel like it was sensitive to those who are suffering, lost, or dead to have talked about it so soon after the event. I know the people affected inContinueContinue reading “Just been watching-“
Dear Dad: Middle Village in Chinook
Dear Dad, do you remember that little spot along the road you wanted to stop at every time we passed it but for one reason or another we never did? Today your dog Rider and I did stop this time. I kick myself for not taking you there sooner, when you were still breathing. YouContinueContinue reading “Dear Dad: Middle Village in Chinook”
Puppy Neutering and Yard Improvement: A Personal Journey
Yesterday, I took my pup to be neutered. This was the pup my narcissist relative insisted on buying from a breeder. I did at least find a good responsible breeder and not one of the backyard breeders. Unfortunately this relative wanted him to be bred and didn’t want to put any work into the careContinueContinue reading “Puppy Neutering and Yard Improvement: A Personal Journey”
Climate Change and Homesteading: A Critical Perspective
This question is for those of you who live in the south, humid or otherwise. These heat waves are getting crazy. This morning, the youtube news is showing California burning. Now, California has always burned. To an extent. The trees and bushes are adapted to fire. But not these fires. These fires are now hotterContinueContinue reading “Climate Change and Homesteading: A Critical Perspective”
Navigating Family Trauma: Reuniting with My Incarcerated Brother
Today, my youngest brother pulled up the gravel driveway and parked his 30 year old red Nissan S.U.V. next to my 2016 Nissan rig. His big foot tire cover matching my big foot bumper stickers. I haven’t seen him in 5 years. The gritty details is his story to tell but it was traumatic theContinueContinue reading “Navigating Family Trauma: Reuniting with My Incarcerated Brother”
