I finally occurs to me that I have been here just over six months. WOW... that is rather overwhelming.
Today a fellow came by who hasn't seen the place in 3 of those so it was enlightening for him to ooooh and aaaaaah over the things that have changed. It feels really great to make such strides.
We expect the buildign permit within a couple of weeks. it is all getting close now.
This past week a took a hard fall in my wet boots on cement. Bruises are dark purple and my hip is sore along with a hell of a headache... so I will probably slow down for a little bit. Still the garden goes forward and I did spend an hour or two making bean poles out of bamboo this morning for the beans that are sprouting in my little greenhouse... they are already 4 inches tall and growing by the HOUR!!
Things with a building crew aren't quite working out as we had planned so we are interviewing for a couple of master carpentes again. Still, the adventure is extraordinary and I look forward to getting started.
Rain hs been heavy this week. Mud up to our knees is the standard. Still we managed to complete the landscaping on the wallking entry to the orchard. and it is truely lovely. No matter how heavy the rain, how hard the work or how complicated working relationships....this is the adventure of a lifetime and i am thrilled to be living it!
Just another day in paradise!!!!!!

I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet
hit the floor each morning, the devil says
"Oh Crap, She's up!"
