I enjoy gardening, using my resources wisely, composting and learning more about permaculture and how to be in better harmony with Creation.
We have a rental house with a small wraparound yard and a somewhat flexible landlord (won't let me kill the lawn with landscape tarps, but will let me put in raised beds), So I'm excited about what is coming for us.
I do Celtic, fantasy, folk, nature and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts and other events in western OR and WA. Plus I do some mental health peer support specialist work which I'm state-certified for. I also have a pop-up garden and vintage+ stand which I set up outside the house to sell from when weather and circumstances permit. My husband works at the grocery store, loves his videogames and is good at cooking. He enjoys learning new skills and is what we call a "social introvert", whereas I'm more extraverted.
We're Christians, we love playing in the water, we camp, we're politically moderate, even though we're family oriented and are close to our family we are childfree by choice.Our marriage has a nontraditional structure.
I set out to become good at gardening and permiculture pursuits, and I've made some progress and want to keep learning.
The hardest part of my day is getting up. So the idea of doing this twice is horrible. I only nap if I literally can't keep my eyes open, I fight it, because it isn't positive for me to go back to sleep once I'm up and about.
Going with the deep ocean, even at the very bottom there are incredible creatures just living their life like its golden, as the saying goes. And there are some we've never seen.
Welcome to permies Lisa, thanks for sharing about your lovely space with us, I hope you can find the right new situation for you and that someone will see that this will be the right next land project for them.
This was a three parter and y'all talked a lonnnnng time about chickens. I hope the result is that Samantha convinces Paul to finally get the chickens she has for him and all y'all at Wheaton Labs.
