    Round One of "Show Me Your Life And I'll Show You Mine"


    (with bonus pictures you didn't even ask for!)


    ~~~~~


    The crappiest "corner" in the house, the office. But wait, see those shelves in the background? We are finishing them right now and so there is hope for this room.



    A Window With A View


    (this is where I sit and blog)



    The current contents of the fridge



    the one and only kitchen counter



    the utensil drawer (I'd say I'm ashamed but really, I'm not)



    the table in our family room



    le bathroom



    my slippers (think it's time for new ones?)



    I feel renewed in my place of peace



    Melissa wanted pictures of our new fruit trees, here is the only one that we did not fence (the others just look like little squares of fence)


    pear tree, the others are nearby



    pear blossoms



    and the compost bins



    and a bonus just-tilled-garden shot



    the prettiest stump in the world



    stump jewelry



    There you have it, a glimpse of bits and pieces of my life.  I am not the most organized and tidy person in the world but I am happy with what I have.   


    Round two will be held tomorrow, refreshments will be served on the porch and I will be wearing my slippers.


    I will save a smartdog for you.


     


     

  • because I am fidgety and this will be fun

     


    Let's play a game! 


    (taken from Tracie)


    It's fun, I promise.


    Tell me what you want me to take a picture of and I'll post it.


    My favorite shoes? My pantry? My most hated corner of the house?


    You get the idea. 


    After I show you mine, you can show me yours!!!




    READY, SET, GO!!!

    Only This


    ~~~~~


    the greening



    Joy



    freedom



    strength



    history



    solitude




    I look for the cracks because I love them.



    you don't know this but I make this face every day



     


    It is enough.

    Extra, Extra


     One of my favorite unschooling magazines, "Live Free Learn Free" is having a subscription sale for the next week.  I highly recommend it to anyone who is unschooling or considering unschooling with their children. It is a bargain at $25.00.


    Here are the contents of this month's issue, check it out!
