Winging It

I have found my old blog!

ANOTHER blog!

Six pregnancies must be taking their toll on the old grey matter.  Earlier this year I started to blog here but after neglecting to post for several months, have failed to remember anything about it ... title, username, password, the lot!  I should be very worried.

I don't really have much time to blog but do enjoy reading other peoples and usually glean some help or encouragement from my random clicking.  This ring sling came in this afternoons post which might free up some time and leave my hands free to catch up on chores.  The kids (who are blogging over at homeschool blogger) want to be able to leave me comments too. 

Baby Enoch 3 and a half weeks new!

Whilst I'm not really a homesteader (or very organised/domesticated for that matter), I do aspire to these things and am currently learning how to use a sewing machine, patchwork and preserve ... skills I was never taught  which I would like to be able to pass on to my daughter.  Yesterday I visited a friend (a real homesteader who should be blogging here) and her beautiful home reinspired me.  Tomorrow the kids will be posting photos of their visit for Show & Tell where they learned how to make Irish potato bread on a griddle over the fire.  Go to their blogs for a sneak look at D & J's home.  They built it themselves and it is hard to believe that it is a brand new home, as it has all the charm and character of a period cottage. 

Now it is time to hit the hay.
