I have a patient husband...
who knows that I have to have some project(s) to devote myself to or I will go crazy. So he allows me to overrun the kitchen with my starts. He even tries to make me feel better about it by telling me how much he appreciates that the girls are being exposed to how things grow, and where we get our food.
The longer I live the more I see how much we can learn from the simple things, like; planting a garden, figuring out your favorite whole wheat bread recipe, or the smell of sun dried clothes. I am so grateful for this time that Albert has been in school and we have had to live more frugally. I can't imagine how much I would be missing out on if I hadn't tried gardening, or crochet, or any of the other things that felt like neccesity at the time. So, believe what you may, a higher power, Karma, a Father in Heaven (as I do) but there is a reason for the experiences we have. And to quote an amazing woman "Life doesn't have to be perfect in order to be wonderful."
Yes, I am feeling a bit philisophical today, don't worry it will pass ;)
