We managed to find a replacement for my beloved blackberry (even farmers love technology) on ebay for less than the cost of my replacement with insurance. Sixty dollars less, which for a under employed person is quite a bit.
It won't arrive until Monday though, which is irritating. Yesterday was the kind of day that makes you clench your teeth and roll your eyes, for 24 hours straight. But it's okay, because it ended wrapped up on the couch, cozy with the suddenly angelic puppy. That makes a big difference.
Today, I am feverishly consuming copious amounts of greenhorn (young farmer) materials. And getting ready for work. And reminding myself of the goal, which has been made easier by reading "The Dirty Life" by Kristin Kimball. Here is a girl, who leaves NYC for the love of a farmer and the farm they build together. It's revolutionized my thoughts on how we might build our CSA. They build a year-round CSA, supplying the members with their entire food supply, dairy, grains, cheese, meat, veggies etc. AND they do it with draft horses. Incredible.
More on this when I'm not rushing to the cafe job. Soon. In the meantime, check out that book, and enjoy.
Gah, that book is on my list. I'm so behind with reading. I need a clone to knit, and another to read, so that I can be at practice and still get all of this done.
