Well, not a storm really, but my mind and body have taken a pause from blogging, because I’m gearing up for an emotionally heavy post, and it seems that I stop all activity before I put so much of myself outward. So, have patience with me please, I haven’t forgotten. I’m just allowing my thoughts [...]

Post Christmas Let Down
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged bath and body, christmas on December 27, 2007 | 4 Comments »
I love the blog stats thing! But I think I check it way too often. There’s about three people still reading after my holiday break. Anyway, for the few of you who are left, I thought I’d talk about the holiday let down a bit. I haven’t really experienced this this year- it’s [...]
Christmas Tour
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged christmas on December 22, 2007 | 5 Comments »
First of all, I resized these, so no fears about clicking on pics anymore. And second of all, I apologize for the dimness of the pics- I know the flash went off- the only thing I can think of is that the batteries are going to die soon.
Now my Christmas stuff!
Welcome to my little apt. [...]
Rise Up Singing

So, in searching for nonannoying kids music for Fairy Girl, I’ve discovered I REALLY like folk music. I like it for aesthetic reasons, but I also like it because it’s fluid, changing to suit your purposes- if you add a verse or change some words here or there- well, that’s the folk process. That’s how [...]
Cleaning Routine- Household Notebook
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged cleaning, household notebook on December 19, 2007 | 3 Comments »
Just a quickie post today, because I’ve been doing other things during Fairy Girl’s nap, and I don’t have much time left.
I was inspired several months ago by Rockin Granola to make a household notebook. So, I did. It’s nothing pretty, or fancy, and it’s not super organized into all different sections. It’s just [...]
Christmas Crafts

I seem to be hitting a bit of blogger’s block. Or rather, I think it’s that I have so MUCH to say that I don’t know where to begin. It could also be that I haven’t had much time to sit and reflect about what I want to say. So please excuse the lack of [...]
AWESOME new birth blog!
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Birth, blogs, doula, midwife on December 16, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I followed a link from Navelgazing Midwife’s blog to this new birth blog called “Close to the Root”. It’s amazing- she’s verbalizing a lot of things I feel about birth, and defending midwifery, which I feel needs a bit of defending with the unassisted birth movement. Please don’t misunderstand, I 100% support unassisted birth, but [...]
Pictures

Ok, here are the collection of pictures that were on the camera. They go all the way back to early fall. For some reason, a lot of them turned out blurry. I’m sorry. I also apologize for the sizes of these. I have fiddled so much with the photos tonight, that I’m just going to [...]

YESTERDAY
Yesterday, my fairy child woke me up way early for us (about 8am- we’re late sleepers around here), and despite plying her with “O”s (Oatios), and Signing Time videos, I admitted defeat, and got up. I was able to unpack a few boxes, and do some more organizing (we moved into our new [...]
What child is this?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged intro on December 14, 2007 | 2 Comments »
I’m Katrina. I live in the Midwest, and I am 25 years old. I’ve been married for nearly 4 years, and I have a nearly two year old. We homeschool. Unschool, actually. We live in a tiny apartment, and try to live as naturally as we can. The cool thing about being “green” is that [...]
