A lot of January was working on new habits and figuring out what a morning routine would best look like for this first quarter of 2026. I don’t have it nailed down yet, but I’m making progress. I do know that the most important things need to be put first, and those things have a…
I have been thinking about productivity vs. fruitfulness. I think as a Christian, as much as possible, I should use Christian words when thinking about life. The word “Productivity” is not in the Bible, but there are verses that talk about the idea of having fruit, faith, and being diligent. I’m meditating on that and…
I’m a day late because a busy weekend kept me from my planner and this post, but I figure Tuesday is better than never, right? Can you believe we are already at week 50 of 2025?!? Week Review Projects & tasks from last week: Projects & tasks for this week: Since the Farmstand is shut…
Well, it was Thanksgiving. That’s all I have to say for myself… Week Review Projects & tasks from last week: Projects & tasks for this week:

In November and December I always start thinking about goals for the new year and things I’d like to do or improve. I used to plan all my goals during the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. But I’ve been keeping a list and adding ideas to it throughout the year so I can…
I hope to make a semi-regular habit of posting what’s going on around here. These posts will be things that aren’t really worth a full post themselves, but things that I think you might find interesting or helpful or fun. Seed Snail starting Have you heard of this? A couple of YouTubers I follow have…
For 2023 I’m going to alternate between weekly updates (goal check-ins, garden progress, notebook updates) and weekly “things shared” posts.
