Yule time

Well, I think it's time to wake this blog up again. It's December and I'm not too busy this time of year working outside. Time to settle in for the winter and enjoy catching up on inside activities.
It's snowing outside right now and that never fails to make me want to curl up with a good book and spend the day being lazy.
I have stocked up on herbs for medicines, made an Elderberry tincture for colds and the flu, put up a few Yuletide decorations and now looking forward to hibernation. If I didn't have to leave the house to work, I would be one happy bear. I think it's good for me though, not just for the money, but I tend to become a hermit and I need to get out and be around people.
Over the last year I have managed to accomplish a few things around the homestead. I will be posting some pics in the coming days.
In the meantime I do have a few new pics of my tiny house on my Facebook page, this link should get you there...
I have added siding, and expanded the deck, I also have the floor done for a 10 X 12 room I'm adding on. That will be a bathroom and closet. Can't wait till that's done! I have the materials waiting for the walls and roof, all from the local sawmill.
I am also in the process of putting cedar shingles on the roof which looks pretty nice, better when it's done.
The Winter solstice is Dec 21st, on the night of the 20th there will be a full lunar eclipse, mark it on your calendar, those don't come along very often!
Thanks for hanging in with me, and thanks to my followers for asking where I've been. I will get back to posting regularly now, and have some new pics for you.
See ya soon!
