It's been way too busy to post. Summer's glorious here as usual but both Craig and I are overwhelmed with work and stressed with what are next move is going to be. That's why it's been rad -ish. Ha, ha. I keep saying to myself, quit the blog, what a time waster but this excercise, again, I find so helpful in seeing what I have been prioritizing, capturing on camera the simple beauty I find around me and recording the mundane around what seems like chaos.
The beauty of summer here captured at a farmer's market, little girl's birthday party and our new kayak!
The ugh-ing it bits include the mosquitoes, deciding where we're going to live, busy with work in form of training a couple of soapmakers right now and Craig's usual job-related stress. We decided we're keeping the Horniman, that's for certain, kind of as a weekend/holiday retreat, but we're leaning now a move to the town of Nelson so that Edie could attend the Waldorf school and to lower our environmental footprint indentation by avoiding all the driving around we find ourselves doing in this rural set-up. Plus, the mosquitoes are driving me insane! My strawberries are popping but I can't bask in their juiciness because the critters are finding me just as appetizing. So, those are my big motivators but it's a tough decision. We're still flip-flopping up to this point.
