I'm in the garden to check on everything and it is so cold again but there is life everywhere and I'm very happy that nothing is lost.

At home, things were slowly taking shape. We had the bare essential to live again. It was a time of waiting. Waiting to find a more permanent home. Waiting for spring. Waiting for my operation.

Whenever my brain needed a break from studying, the kitchen was in full swing. Pancakes, sourdough pizza wheels, and syrup for drinks were made while avoiding exam prep. I’ll show you all that while talking about good sources for ingredients and ranting about supermarket organic.

I am leaving Youtube. I won’t quit making videos but I won’t be uploading them to Youtube anymore. When I started making this video, I was pulling out before Youtube pushed past my comfort zone with their policies. By now, the line has been crossed. If you want to continue watching my videos, to continue following my journey, you’ll need to follow me at least to Peertube.

The garden is now an hour’s drive away. It’s a rare refuge. I lucked out that my appointments in the area aligned with a rare beautiful winter day. A day in the garden, away from all the politics and injustice out there, it’s rare but it’s everything. So, today, I won’t rant about the world out there. Today, we’ll harvest some spinach and talk about pretty things.

For weeks, I’ve been reacting to things going wrong. Finally, I am back to acting, choosing, planning. When we found out we’d have to move by the end of the year, things got chaotic quickly. Add two ER visits, and I’ve had quite the end of the year.
