A short break.

  I’m back, I took a short, much needed break from all my endeavors to work on a writing course I started in on quite a while ago.

  Life got hectic for a bit, and I just couldn’t focus on it while dealing with everything else that had been thrown my way. And to be honest, it can and does get a bit wild at times.

  But I am focused on the future and am working towards writing and content creation, becoming my full-time job when I finally get to retire.

  Progress continues here on the micro homestead, I’ve been vloging about it because it’s easier and more expedient than writing, but writing is my passion.

  I’ll try to figure out how to post videos here, I attempted to share one earlier this month, and it didn’t work. More new things to learn. There is a button to share videos. So I’m stumped for now.

  I’m ready to submit my first test from my creative writing course but naturally I lost the paper my student ID was on so I find myself waiting for a reply to email.

  I have a couple of new projects in the works, one is a small wood burning stove and the other is the walipini which is nearly done.

  The woodstove was painted with the wrong paint by whoever made it, most of it burned off during the first firing, which fortunately I had the foresight to do outside, just in case.

Just out of the box.

  So I ordered new paint, good to 2000° , I’ll grind all the old paint off when the paint comes in. I’m also replacing the gasket on the door because the ones it came with fell off from the heat and will add a thermometer, so I’ll know how hot it’s getting.

Progress on the walipini.

  Thank you for stopping by. I’ll try to be more regular with my posting on here. Hava a great day.
