The Mother of the Munchkins Independent contractor/freelancer typically found entrenched at home fighting the good war against the gimmes and the I-don't-wannas. I blog recklessly, as all mothers of children under the age of seven should, and have finally given up on that, "supposed" great American novel. Instead I allow myself to be very much distracted by urban homesteading, politics, "crafts", depression survival and graphic design. With time leftover for plenty of humor!
A trip through life DIY (do-it-yourself) style. Following my trek toward self-sufficiency on just over 1/10 acre, one project at a time.
The regular blog of a landlocked but determined girl, trying to be as self-sufficient as possible in a city - come and visit for windowsills full of lettuce and tomatoes in the bathroom. Wahey!
