Ember Madrone: August 2014
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 05, 2014. I'm pretty good at avoiding the realities of life. This personality quirk keeps me optimistic in the face of scary stuff. Money is painfully tight right now. I'm not making enough to cover all our expenses, and the tax bill will continue to creep up with penalties if I don't contact them soon. But I still have work, and I can always try for something more if things get too desperate. I just have to do more sites. That's doable. Loved that middle shot, just felt so "small town".

Ember Madrone: July 2014
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 09, 2014. Summer rains and kitten wrangling. Wednesday, July 02, 2014. Not much to report. The days are long, the weather's warm, the tea is sweet. Kitten's name is still Ansel. Big cat got his cold. Garden stuff over at Dark Meadow. Accountability stuff over at Melanie's Gym. My days this week are spent working, tending the garden, making exercise habit, and allowing myself to work slower at the laptop when there's a kitten hogging my left arm. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, November 24, 2014. Sap, Grass, Leaves, Snow. I'm buried in Thanksgiving prep and the impending visiting of family, but this post of Ben Hewitt's. Rang so true to me this morning, that I had to repost it somewhere. I still pray for the days when the wheel of my year turns according to that subject line. I will make it happen. Thursday, November 13, 2014. Yea, I fell behind yesterday.it's bein' a hard week. Wednesday, November 12, 2014. Morning : Noon : Night. Monday, November 10, 2014. Again Becau...

Ember Madrone: June 2014
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 23, 2014. I keep trying other names, but that one's sticking for some reason. We tried Orion last night, but it's not flying with me this morning. I almost don't want to name him Ansel, because Les flips it around a bit and calls him Aslan instead, and I'm not a huge CS Lewis fan. But when I look into his little kitten eyes, that's the read I get. I'm actually surprised they neutered him at a month and 27 days, because 2 months is norm, but he must've seemed strong enough. But boy, when your...

Ember Madrone: The calm and the storm
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-calm-and-storm.html
Monday, December 22, 2014. The calm and the storm. Sunday was Yule, so we got up and opened our presents to ourselves and then had breakfast. I popped out to the store once, but otherwise stayed close to home, reading and gaming. Didn't want to bake because we still don't have room in our freezer, and don't want stuff drying out between now and Thursday/Christmas. And then it was Monday (today). 10AM came and went. 12 noon came and went. Dear dotcom CEO,. You locked me out of almost 4 days worth of work,...

Ember Madrone: 2015
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2015/01/2015.html
Friday, January 09, 2015. I don't have a word for this year. I have goals, but they're not written down. I want to get healthy. I'm recognizing that means detoxing and performing large changes to the way I eat and move my body. I'll be posting more at Melanie's Gym. I want to make more money, so we can get the tax debt under control. That means hunting. And if I can't find something in my field, it means getting work elsewhere and running myself into the ground a bit. I'm OK with that. Subscribe to: Post...

Ember Madrone: February 2014
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 24, 2014. Yea, it's been awhile. End of February already. Time's flying, and I can't decide how to feel about that. A byproduct of some classes I'm taking to boost my knowledge for the nonprofit, is that it's showing me how to market myself as well. I know a girl from work. Who's a self-published author. Hop on over to Melanie's Gym. And Dark Meadow Farm. If you get bored.I'm still fighting the big butt fight, and diving into permaculture on those outlets. Friday, February 07, 2014.

Ember Madrone: January 2014
http://embermadrone.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. I'm definitely in a bit of a dry spell on this particular blog. Maybe it's winter, maybe it's work.just ain't a whole lot going on here to justify a post lately. As my work for Ashevillage. Increases, I'll be posting more over at Dark Meadow. Plus, once Spring starts to sneak in around these parts, I'll be wrist deep in the soil and writing about that over there. I'm also in a dry spell over at Melanie's Gym. It's been actual winter around here! Getting proactive about the indoo...
