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.

We have been told every day we would get pummeled with tons of snow... but until this morning we had nothing. It has been snowing since the wee hours and is lovely! I will post pics as soon as I bundle up to go out and take some, however I got a kick out of this video (sans the Tijuana brass band soundtrack). Here in the NW we kinda have a reputation of sucky snow driving. (For full disclosure, this is on a hill). Where most drivers fail is they drive the same in snow, as they do in rain or sun. That means quick starts, quick stops, and if something worries them (snow on hill!) they go a slow and uneven speed, or sometimes stop. On a hill. With ice. With traffic, In the lane of traffic. Which basically means they can't get up a hill. It is all unimportant however... because we are going sledding!!!!!!
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.
