Hello there!

Lots has changed for us.

For starters we moved. We are now in the Great Lakes Region of the United States.

I've completely changed directions with our home education. I'm hesitant to post too much about that until we are into the school year somewhat.

My iPod has been raised from the dead once, traveled halfway across the world only to be again, dead and I'm fine with it. Personally I think it is a Good Thing.

Those aren't even the major points and since a full recap is too overwhelming to me right now, I'll just say hello and sut mae to you all. I'll be posting more herbal stuff the next few posts as I've joined a blog party and I'll be posting a recipe for my fertility chai and some info about a weed I've grown quite fond of.

Also, this morning I fought off the songbirds and mosquitoes (really? mosquitoes at 9 am, I mean, come on! That is absurd!) to pick a quart jar full of ripe elderberries with three out of four children. Just imagine me like Snow White, only shooing the birds away and slapping mosquitoes.

I'll tell you what I'm going to do with it later.

But for now, I'm recovering from an illness that reminds me way too much of mononucleosis/glandular fever but is definitely not strep throat (I had it checked) and I feel the need to rest a bit.

Thanks for hanging in there to this poor neglected space.
