A New Beginning

It’s time again. I’m ready. On my last post over on blogger, I said perhaps I would blog again one day. That day has come.img_20180729_1827031Many happy healing things have happened since that day. So many things. So many things that I’m not even going to name them all on this first post–assuming that that was even a possibility, which it isn’t. img_20180610_110815For now I’ll just say that we found this amazing little cabin on a hill, in the woods, with four acres around it–and we can call it our own. It’s mostly the shenanigans and adventures of our lives on this resting spot that I’d like to to share with you.img_20180417_203011I share, not just for your benefit, but for mine. To remember well the blessings that God has given us in this season of our lives. img_20180517_134521So here’s to a new chapter. Welcome! It’s nice to be writing again. It’s nice to have you here.img_20180610_1850531

“What do the fairies use fairy dust for anyway?” I asked the Night Gardener the other night. “It is used to dust anything about to ripen. All summer the fairies add color and sweetness to the fruits and vegetables. Stuff can ripen without but not as well or quickly. Sometimes it can be used to…

A Beautiful Evening

Having the house for sale this summer has me counting the lasts. Noticing things and taking notes on how I did things and if I’d do it that way again. People should see my house in the golden hour. Or dusk. Anyway, interested parties trickle through. It’s beautiful but still a lot of work. But…

The garden people are not near as disgruntled by the smoke from the northern fires as I thought they would be. They have other problems. The fairies are all in a flutter. Only, flutter, they cannot. It seems that not only is there an upcoming ban on the use of fairy dust, they have also…

Hello,

I’m Lisl

Herein lie the events, ponderings, people, and animals that make up the cacophony of our life.

Pictures of farm and family

I posted a few words on the blog yesterday. Two posts actually. Look for posts with a title for our real life. Posts with just a date for a title are our fun pish-posh. Havilah has been helping with the story line and images. There are strange things happening over on the blog. It's such a strange summer. Closing a chapter of our lives. Wondering what living gracefully between chapters means. One moment feeling excitement for the next thing, another moment grieving what has come to a close. A quick photo dump of our lives yesterday. Church on the patio. Here we are waiting for the livestream to start. We got to church and it was so packed out that we left, opting to watch church with my dad who was home with a bad ear infection, rather than watch church on a screen in an overflow area at church. Then we stayed for lunch and the guys played Monopoly. There. I took pictures today. Bag balm and the moth. The only picture I took today. I'm struggling to make the pictures happen and it bothers me. One never knows where they will find their teenager. The kids are asking about Bible translations. They have the right man for a dad. They won't go out into the world without an understanding of how we got our Bible and how different translations happened. Chickens in the morning, waiting to be let out.
