The weather outside is //

As I look outside my window // The garden is calling me! Thank goodness the forecast looks mild. I have most of the pathway wood chips pulled out and am hoping we can get a gravel delivery late in the week. Other farm tasks on the docket: organizing the shed to accommodate a big feed order, doing a check for any baby chick products we might need to reorder, and starting to fertilize a few beds for some cool-weather crops.

As I look around the house // We’re currently living in a house with a hundred in-progress projects going on. I have a new dishwasher in my kitchen waiting to be installed, a box of bookshelf pieces waiting to be assembled, Valentine gifts waiting to be boxed up and sent to far-away family, etc etc. It’s chaos and while I wish my house looked tidier, I’m trying to lean into this season and take it one task at a time. It’ll all get done eventually.

Introducing // our new little kitten! We are quickly reaching zoo status around here. As someone who never had pets growing up, I still can’t believe this is the life I have now, ha! He is just the sweetest tiny little thing and we are all in love.

On this week’s to-do list // – get the dishwasher installed – mop the kitchen floor – bake bread – work on valentines to mail to far away relatives – finish our taxes – organize the shed to accommodate a new bulk feed order – research automatic waterer options for the pigs to use when the temperature warms up

– order dewormer
