Dog On The Roof

Look at that morning sky. It’s gonna be an awesome day. The kids are not going to be impressed with the cleaning projects I have up my sleeve today!

I finally have proof that Mercury really does go up there. So…is this normal in your world?

The confusion on the homestead concerning the ban on fairy flight has finally been cleared up. Something happened here on the farm on the day of summer solstice. I was not home that day as we were off to Cheney Lake that day with family, so I have had to glean my information from a…

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…

Hello,

I’m Lisl

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.
