So many times I have taken on a project, only to realize halfway through that there were numerous aspects I had not considered that added to my timeline and budget and drew out the project much more than I originally thought. That's not to say I don't plan ahead prior to beginning- but that this … Continue reading Homestead Update: Kitchen Remodel Progress!
Homestead Update: Project Fridays
Hello all! I'm particularly filled with joy this Friday as I just got the entire family to help me deep clean the kitchen! The kitchen. The heart of the home, my sanctuary, my mission field. We spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Or kitchen adjacent. Our main room is one giant open space … Continue reading Homestead Update: Project Fridays
Living Sustainably
Well guys, we've had a time lately. Lots of issues going on with the house and causing structural issues, and lots of resulting water damage. We've lost a lot of clothing, baby/toddler stuff, and lumber we had in our basement - a reminder that we are completely dependent on the Lord to provide for us, … Continue reading Living Sustainably
Nesting
I've hit a period of urgency in my nesting. I've been saying the whole 2nd and 3rd trimester that it feels like Baby is coming early. She's dropped significantly in 24 hours, and while I sensed this would be the case, I'm still not totally prepared. So, because we're done with school, and I don't … Continue reading Nesting
Bathroom Update DIY

My biggest focuses have been on areas with damage, or excessive wear and tear, and I've been doing it all whilst keeping small children alive and educated and fed, and nearing the end of pregnancy. The master bathroom is in need of … Continue reading Bathroom Update DIY

We have a baby due in 15 more weeks, which means (based on history/experience) we have a baby coming in 12 weeks. I've been struggling through some depression and anxiety, some of it warranted, some … Continue reading Homestead Mini-update
Quick Projects
So my pre-baby checklist includes a lot of things my husband will probably deem frivolous and unnecessary, so I'm doing them myself. In fact, they are neither frivolous, nor unnecessary, but rather multifunctional in saving my sanity as well as bringing order and beauty to various spaces in our home. First up was cleaning out … Continue reading Quick Projects
Homestead Update: What’s New and Formal Rabbitry Introduction
Well, we certainly had a very busy holiday season. My husband's family came in for a visit. We had so much good conversation, sooooo much good food, and we got a lot of project loose ends tied up before cold weather hits. Speaking of cold weather, that romantic image I had in my head of … Continue reading Homestead Update: What’s New and Formal Rabbitry Introduction
Homestead Update:Knitting, Projects, and News
It seems an odd thing to me to be knitting mittens on my front porch in 65° weather in December, but such is life in East Tennessee- Weather is a fickle mistress. In any case, I've completed 2 of 4 pairs of mittens, and am working on pair #3. Mitten in progress, The Knitter's Handy … Continue reading Homestead Update:Knitting, Projects, and News

I've got folks coming in for a visit next week so I will try to do as much updating as I can in this week so that I can enjoy our guests next week.
