It’s been a challenging couple of months. Since joining the local volunteer fire department late last year, I’ve been spending the last 6 Saturdays in class for an Emergency Medical Responder class that has kept me in a constant state of feeling like my head might explode. Due to various circumstances, our final test in class [...] We’ve had some rather moist mornings lately. The other morning I was up and milking early in the fog, and on my way to class I pulled over and snapped this shot with my iPhone of a neighbor’s field in the [...] I suppose this is akin to my Best Moments of the Week lists, but a blogger at Bless Her Heart posted about here 30 days of a grateful heart and it sounded like a good idea. I’ve been posting one thing a day over on Facebook, but I figured I’d collect them here for posterity [...] First, the Internet is a wonderful thing. Every year, since 2003, I create a CD that was a compilation of my favorite music of that year, things that I listened to obsessively, songs that plucked my heartstrings, each instilled with moments and memories.

My to do lists are never-ending, I just hope that I can get a few things checked off my list per day so I don’t feel so behind. Everything is going well, but it’s been a steady flow, [...] My friend Sam came by today to show me how to make baguettes and croissants.
