This Week at Ramsey Farms (Week Ended 5.4.14)

I don't care for these weeks that leave my mind in a blur. Where did the time go? What did we do with all that time? What day is today? This is supposed to be about slowing down, not getting lost in a blur and shuffle of time and tasks.

This week we...

• recuperated from the 750-mile / 28-hour road trip to Georgia. 
• celebrated the Ramsey Farms' recreational coordinator, Stephanie's birthday with food, fun, beer, and bocce!
• relished that spring break is over.
• enjoyed two days of rain.
• worked at our "day jobs" and did the usual weekly routine of school and extracurricular activities and soccer games and dentist appointments and laundry and dishes and cleaning and church and breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.
• got approved for a farm/land mortgage!
• listed my house for sale!
• had the first house showing!
• got excited that someone is going to buy this house!
• took house photos.
• baked bread for home and the Ramsey Farms Bakery customers and added a couple new happy customers.
• had a semi-surprise visit from my mom!
• chatted with neighbors and visited with friends here on the farm. 
• read some books and did a lot of writing and thinking and pondering the mysteries of the universe.
• repainted the kitchen and dining room ceilings.
• uploaded new pics to the Cold Frame page for you to see!
• got worried that no one will ever buy this house.
• can hear and see my dad in my mind saying, "You can't make everything happen when you want it to happen, Baby."
• reseeded lettuces and radishes and ate and gave away lots of organic lettuce.
• daydreamed about the Big Farm in Georgia.
