- Go to the gym a lot and try to make muscles happen.
- Read a lot about permaculture.
- Read a lot about taking care of chickens.
- Read a lot about taking care of cows.
- Practice baking pies (so far, pies have given me a very, very hard time).
- Start my own seeds inside and scale back my yard-transformation plans a bit.
- I canceled my gym membership because I wasn't using it.
- I read Gaia's Garden, checked out a bunch more permaculture books from the library, read half of one, and knit instead of reading any more than that.
- Nothing.
- Nothing.
- I did make one very successful quiche, which gives me hope.
- Done! My seeds are doing well - all but the peppers, which don't want to germinate. And I have more modest expectations for what I will accomplish in the yard this year.
With this in mind, here are my goals for the two weeks that remain before I start on the farm:
- Daily yoga. I've gotten out of this habit, which was my daily goal for the year. Bad. It's helpful in so, so many ways - very worth making the time to do it, even if it means I knit a few less rows each day. Also, I need to do vigorous yoga for now, with a focus on arms.
- Read a book about chicken care.
- Read a book about milk cows.
- Bake at least two pies.
This is reasonable.
I think you have gotten a lot done, and knitting is never a waste of time.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you need me to taste the pies.
