I thought I’d share a list of all the stuff I’ve been able to do with the time I used To spend handwashing my dishes. Some of you may get a kick out of this, others may not. All I’m saying is, give a homesteader 2 extra hours a day, and WATCH OUT!
Finish knitting my 1st pair of socks


Make my oldest some new jammies with thrifted flannel. Kid is growing WAY too fast.

Catch up on Latin lessons

Pop some banana bread into the new bread machine

Lift some weights
Have a cup of tea
Do some light reading

Daydream about sheep and goats
Obsess over my presumably pregnant dairy goat

Wind hanks of yarn into balls
Start knitting my 2nd pair of socks

Play with my goofy kids

Spend time in God’s word and in prayer

And all the other things I wanted to do instead of standing at the kitchen sink.
To be fair though, my podcast listening has decreased. Somehow, I’m ok with that.
