At this time of year on the blog, I usually have a load of posts scheduled for publication. Reviews of the year, books I have read, a year on the farm. Since the pandemic hit in March though, I seem to have lost my mojo for everything. On the face of it, I should have … [Read more…]
This is my second year of doing a New Year goals list. Last year, I made seven goals and I achieved five of them. I did not lose 40 pounds and my sweat peas died. Rather than focus on the negative though, I learnt to crochet and have made countless granny squares. I started a … [Read more…]
