056 It might look ugly but…
The storm blew off my garden house roof just the teensiest tiniest bit. I really am impressed how much is still left standing after THAT storm. Um… but we’ve got to fix it. I will need to get the big ladder to get a better look. Luckily, I still have materials in the garden house.…

055 Finishing the kitchen construction
Last time, I tore apart my kitchen, and started building a shelf. Now, I want to finish it. I knew the bottom half would be the hardest to build. I would need to use imperfect tools for the job. It was most of the reason why I put this off for so long. But this…

054 Let’s take apart the kitchen
It’s finally time to tear apart the kitchen and finish the kitchen project I started in spring. The basement pantry wasn’t working for us, so it was high time to figure out something more usable. I finally get to make a mess of my kitchen. I started this project last spring. Now, it’s time to…

053 Q&A (Garden Edition)
As promised, you are getting answers today. This time, I’ll tell you all about the garden: Do I own the land? Where is the garden? Why am I doing this? Do I have a master plan? Will I be getting….? We live in a tiny apartment in the middle of nowhere. That nowhere is a…

052 Preparing for a lot of mess
I’m about to make a big mess in my basement and kitchen. Let’s get some tools, and prepare for said mess. I wanted to take apart the kitchen the next day, so had to get anything out of the way that needed the kitchen intact. I won’t be able to use this cart until the…

051 Q&A (Personal edition)
You asked, and today, I am going to answer. We’ll talk about shoes–or the lack thereof, protective equipment, what I study, where I have lived, and my chronic illness. Now that there are more of you. I asked for your questions, then tried to make this one cohesive episode, but there is just too much…

050 Snowed in
Within a few days, winter arrived early and in full force. We went from winter wonderland to snowed in. I built a cart to cover and mulch my beds, but then the snow came. We went for long walks in the winter wonderland before the snow storm snowed us in–and I couldn’t even get to…

049 The projects I want to get to
After playing catch-up for weeks, I finally get to do some of the things I want to get to. The first snow falls in the forest outside, and I make the best of being stuck indoors–and actually get some things done. In a year without a summer, fall fell fast. And then winter came even…

048 I had so much planned for this weekend
It is so unfair how beautiful it looks outside because it is literally freezing out there. While I am stuck inside, there is a lot to get done around the apartment–a lot of which I won’t get to. I am waiting for my winter gloves to arrive, so I can go back and work in…
