I set my alarm to quarter to 8 so I could be up & tea-ed before anyone else, It felt fantastic.
One of the first things my son suggested we do was make bread, since I bought 25 kilos of flour not long ago & have fresh yeast for this very purpose I saw no issue with it & we had a nice morning of kneading & rising while we aired our bedding & changed all the sheets in the house, bread has turned out yet again to be of good texture & taste I just want to try to get it a little higher, I see buying loaf pans in my future.
I between we made a bee out of some pods & leaves we found it has compound eyes & everything (he's so fantastic).
As well as feeding chickens & doing normal garden stuff, we went & collected some more leaves for our caterpillars which were eating so loudly that we could hear them during breakfast.
I finally found some socks I needed to send out to a customer & I wound another 10 skeins & dyed 3 more, I am so happy with yarns I'm producing, Trystan even did 100grams for himself & his imaginary pet foxes.
In the afternoon we walked to the post office to send business stuff & send off some forms for TAFE & after that we went to the park for 2 hours still getting home in time to get dinner on the table before 7 eating at the table really does work better that the coffee table or anywhere else which is to be expected I really must do it more often though I may make a point of working in some lessons in table manners over the next few months.
Getting tryst to sleep was a case of 2 thing books, 2 bear & chook books, the mitten, & two chapters of olga da polga I definantly need to start reading at quarter to 8 which is his bedtime so I can get out of there before 9 I just start to feel too tired after then.
I'm hoping tomorrow to start some tomato seedlings, I loved the tomato jam I made last year & I don't feel like I can affortd to go nuts with decent store bought tomatos ignoring that they are pale imitations of home grown.
I may start the beds they'll be in if this rain doesn't keep up, oh & I need to get my worm farm together, fancy making a 14 page guide to keeping worms but not including the assembly instructions :p
Hope the world is well.
