Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Hey! I'm not in the picture!
I used to carry Myranda around like that. Didn't know we could do it when I had Jill... but loved that with Myranda!
I could wear her when I worked in the garden! :-)
The guy with the chisel took a break.
Here's a suggestion, especially if you have stairs in your house. Get a couple of bags of flour and carry them with you up and down the stairs. It's amazing when you realize that a few months ago, that flour (or whatever you're carrying) was the weight of what was stuck on YOU! Vey enlightening!
This sheet is actually more comfy than the sling is. Only, there is no discretion for when I need to nurse her (they don't make the sheets long enuff for that!).
As it ought to be!! Good on you,Lil!!
Or my beauty is too much of a challenge for him. hehehe
Okay, ducking the rotten veggies being thrown my way now!
Well, I always wanted to sit down and relax for that anyway. Nursing was great for relaxing as I recall! :-)
For some of us, that should be bags of potatoes... I pick up my youngest brother sometimes. He weighs just a bit more than the amount I've lost. It's incredible.
I'd think so. Products from bovines that eat pesticide-free soy/grains will differ little from those that eat pesticide-treated soy/grains as far as the fat profile and nutrient content is concerned. Cows are supposed to eat grass. "Organic" milk will probably lack the hormones and antibiotics and thus be marginally better than commercial milk. But pasteurization pretty much nullifies any benefit anyway.
There's a nice collection of citations regarding pasteurization here. A lot of interesting research was done back when pasteurization was being debated. Hence the dates on the research. Now that it's "settled science", no one seems interested in researching it further. No money in it, I suppose. (Yes, I'm kind of a one-note piper these days when it comes to nutrition. But I really like the Weston A. Price Foundation's work- even if they do come off as a little strident.)
Way cool... been doin' some of that the past few days too (by hand though - no tractor yet). Been cleaning dead and low-hanging limbs from some of the trees in the back 40. Cut them into burnable 6-foot lengths with the Sawz-all and got them stacked this morning.
mmmmmmmm.... sawz-all...
*exhausted sigh*
Evenin' folks! Finally made it to my favorite spot in the house.....my computer chair! *grin*
Ohyeah... the wonder saw.
I cut up a 22ft sailboat with one of those one time. Into pieces small enough to throw into the pickup and take to the dump. In several loads.
Evenin' evellybody! [sip]
I'm in da Bay Area again. You can just feel the liberalism here, like a stink in the air.
Evenin'! How was your day? I saw "Spider-Man 2" again :)
i am trying to fix our ongoing email issue. not sure if it's gonna work or not. Last time, they said it was *because* of the antivirus software, this time they are saying we have a virus and *need* antivirus software. hmph!
oh well, I am going to play nice nice with the tech, cuz he was nice to me, download the software and call him back!
Hi Ruthy!
Glad you made it home and into that spot! :-)
"I'm in da Bay Area again."
You travelling to SF or is there another Bay Area in Washington unknown to us Cheeseheads? :)
Hi there handsome! Need some company? :-)
Nope, that's the one. SF. More precisely, Menlo Park, a little south of SF.
