Still here, slogging around.

There has been progress on our move to the country. It's slow but moving forward which I guess is better than fast and moving backward. It's going to happen and that's what's getting me through. Reading about the family in Mother Earth News who lived in their pop up camper for a while made me see we can definitely live in almost 1200 square feet. And they had 5 kids - we've only got three! So I'm feeling more optimistic about this day by day.

Marriage stuff is going better.

And I just realized in the post below I mention Mace's birth being in 2004. I'm too lazy to edit that post, but it was obviously 2002. I'm a dork when it comes to dates.

Not much going on of late. It's summer, and it's hot. We've gotten lots of cabbage and some peppers, eggplant, zucchini and cucumbers from the garden. No tomatoes yet, oddly. Just as last year, they're still green. We had lots of them last summer, just later than usual, and that seems to be repeating this year. I WILL put up sauces and veggies. I WILL do it this year. Last year I canned a bit just to get the hang of it but I didn't really do that much. I need to get with it on the tomatoes this year. I want some sauces! I think in trying to get the hang of gardening I didn't think through what I wanted and needed. Too much cabbage and too many sweet potatoes. Ah well, plant and learn I guess.

Fighting some stupid ill-timed baby lust again! What is wrong with me?!!? One of us needs to make some permanent changes and it needs to be soon.

That's all the news thats fit to print from the house of me.
