We changed homes and moved from the city to the country (well sort of... three acres.) Bought a tall old farmhouse. Stories of that house, maintenance, horses, chickens, family, friends... or whatever I am getting feisty about at the moment -- you can find here.

About Me
- Blue Shoe Farm
- Welcome to the Blue Shoe Farm. Click on my pic above to access three blogs; one on home restoration( I am using the term Home Restoration very loosely),a blog about mortality and the mental gymnastics I do to ignore it (shall we say that will not be a winning battle), the third, blueshoefarm, is a bit-o-everything. I ramble on about maintaining our old 1904 farmhouse, three'ish' acres, job, life stuff, chickens, kids, truths and untruths. My kids determine my life plan and focus, our house/property/animals determine where my money goes. Love working, a bit giddy, hate meetings, might be a bit stubborn, endlessly curious.
