Brent has done a wonderful job of the adventure playground - by next weekend he is hoping it is all netted in & roof completed.
Where the grass bit is will be also netted as another outdoor area - with a bench seat so I can sit in the sun & read - not sure much reading will get done with kittens wanting attention.
The next stage is another cattery barn at end of concrete facing the other one. Brent's taking leave in March so that's when that will begin.
A warm welcome to our families daily
blog. "Living The Good Life"
We are a family of four & I’m the
luckiest girl I know! Married to my best friend for over 21 years, raising two
wonderful children on our 3 acre farmlet in New Zealand.
I was a Bank Manager in previous life
(before kids) and now a kept women - home schooling our two kids. Brent
is a Service Projects Manager and brings home the bacon for the family.
We got
"off the bus" ie away from continual comsumption & accumulation of
material goods & find much joy in living a simple life.
I enjoy writing & sharing views on
living a simple life, menu planning, living on one income in a two income world,
home schooling, dyslexia, severe food allergies, raising coloured sheep, goats
& hens, quilting, reading, cooking, gardening and of course cats.

The
best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes,
flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you.
Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes,
certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life.
