Looking back now, I can see my anger and frustration could largely be attributed to my having been pregnant! I've calmed down, and want to put my nose to the grindstone on this home re-creation project, now that Iris has been born. I will try to keep my posts less political and more personal, except for when it impacts us directly (e.g. my husband not qualifying for unemployment anymore because congress has refused to extend the benefits another time...but they still think paying for perpetual war is acceptable).
We don't know if we'll be in this house next year. But I can't allow that uncertainty to diminish my desire to make my home-life my gift to my children (and my husband). There are quite a few plans I have for this place, and I hope to post the progress of the projects soon. First on the list: weatherize, then make mid-winter appointment to tap these Maple trees!
Wow. You have so much energy! Let us know everything . . .
