I have definitely bent the "prime directive". The cabin I am residing in now haw a kitchen off the floor... three sides of counter top and a built in set of shelves. Everyone is amazed. The guy I hired (they told me he is too expensive at $10 a day) is a housebuilder, not a finish carpenter but with my guidance he got it done. It was a good dry run before we do the house. I am ecstatic!!!
Dad continues to work. As I have said before, I am waiting for him to fall off the wagon but every day of work and good spirits is a gift to his family. He enjoys people stopping by seeing him planing boards in his yard. They obviously have something kind or complimentary to say as he beams and works on. I have taken a few photos but can't get them off the camera yet. I smashed mine in that little motorcycle crash and am using Theo's... but we will get it all put together for you to see.
Their 14 year old son, Natee, has asked to be in charge of the chickens. He is building a chicken house today. We will buy the laying hens in the next couple days. They asked for 10; I told himto build for 20. It turns out that when we buy the pig food, they will give us chicken scratch for free! What a deal....
Okay, off I go to cook some dinner for us all. Just keeping you posted.

Just another day in P A R A D I S E !!

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!"
