About Me:

In 2006 I quit my city job of 20+ years to remarry, move and become a "farm wife". For the most part, I am a stay at home mom.

As of the 2007 school year, we are a homeschooling family.

We also farm. Our farms include a large garden, haying, horses, cows, geese, chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, 2 stocked ponds, small vineyard and an orchard.

We live at the main farm (the one with the animals) and our other farm is currently growing hay, nuts and firewood to harvest this fall.
In the spring we will be adding sheep, and turkeys.

We have 5 daughters, (including 2 sets of twins) 3 who are still at home.

I love to camp, travel, garden, fish, bake, do needlework, sew, genealogy and ride horses. One of my favorite places to travel to is Northern Indiana (LaGrange county), where I have Amish cousins and to learn about my ancestors.

My goal is to help this family stay on track financially and to stay out of debt, other than our mortgage.

Every one has been sick around here. Numerous trips to ER and dr. Ranging from severe ear infections to twisted intestines. As a result, I have had to take a leave from work to stay home with sick kids. Two resulted i short hospital stays, so I will be gettig bills from that, with no income. As a result, I have not been spending much at all-mainly just gas and utilities and some food. I have cabinets and a pantry full of canned goods and 2 freezers full of food, so that will carry me for several months. But, still have to buy milk and some perishables, such as fruits.
