Taking a break
I’m taking a little break, for about two weeks. We have family come in to see Tommy. And it’s time to fall clean house, and get ready for winter. And my daughter (19) has moved out a few weeks ago, and her room is now my sewing room. No more kitchen table sewing. So I am cleaning it up and getting ready for sewing.
You all have been a great blessing to me. And thank you for all your prayers, they are felt daily.
For those of you that are following Tommy’s health updates, I will still be doing them. See: Up dates on Tommy’s health
I will check in here every other day or so. But will not be posting for about 2 weeks.

About
My new life as a widow, mother, and Nana. This is now about our new journey down the road of new beginnings, our ups and downs, and what we are doing and learning. And hoping to keep as much of our old ways as I can, while learning new ways along this road. We live off a fixed income and make as much as we can ourselves. We find new ways to use old things, or use them in a different way. We try to live as simple as we can, by choice. I’m hoping that this blog will help others along their journeys in life. As our journeys here on earth are changing, some changes we like while others are hard on us,but by God’s grace we will make it through them all.
The simple life, living off God’s land, one day at a time.
(Before becoming a widow)I’m a homesteading, homeschooler, farm mom and wife. I’ve been married 10+ years, kids(his ,mine and ours is 9). We raise and grow 80%+ of what we eat. I enjoy : knitting, cooking from scratch, reading, blogging, canning, quilting, and more. My husband has prostate cancer in his bones. So I’m now learning all about that and new drugs. I love learning new things. I like to find all the ways I can to stretch a dollar, it’s become a mission. I am very creative and try to make do with what I have on hand. And would like to share with others what I know. I by no means know it all. We started living off the farm more then ten years ago. Tommy said I could stay home with the kids. What a blessing. But with only one income and 5 mouths to feed, well I start homesteading, farming, gardening, canning out of have too. Now I do it because it’s just much better food. The Lord has blessed us much over the years. We have only had the Internet for a few months, we have no cable etc. We do have power but we hang clothes out side, use the power very wisely, it’s going up in cost too.
Lately, a lot of my friends have ask me how to do this or that, how to store food, what to store. So I started blogging, they can come here.
Welcome to our life on a farm.

Have a great two weeks and that is wonderful news about hospice! I know you will be working hard, but a vacation from blogging at least will be one less thing you have to do to. Have a grand time. Take care.
I hope you have a nice visit with your visitors.:) I will continue to pray for Tommy and for your family.
Hugs and blessings,
Joyce
