I think I’m going to have a coat made out of this sheep hide. That will keep me warm in winter. Wool inside, leather out. @tinkeringtailortom.bsky.social can you do it??!
@wrenispinkle.bsky.social today I got a free 10 min chair massage and all she kept saying was “your ___ is so tight, what are you doing?” And all I could say was have you seen the world? Thought you could relate Fyi there is “inner oral massage” for jaw pain apparently.
Our occupational separation and work loads make it hard to connect and share in the joys we share together. But there is a blueberry pie waiting for @carl-gustav.bsky.social and I hope those small pleasures carry us week to week.
I’m doing things I never dreamed of, learning skills I never considered, feeling stronger and more able to do anything that must be done. With reverence.
Just a lady in 2026 tanning hide all by myself
Raising animals for food is brutiful. We eat way less meat because of that. Today is a hard day. Reverence is the word of the day
@blakethebutcher.bsky.social talk me through what I need to do with a sheep hide and head tomorrow. I have lots of salt.
Farm tour today. 14yo boy thought scything was hard but cool 12yo like bottle feeding Doby The both dug potatoes and harvested kale for the first time ever and planted seeds.
The formerly glacial till, compacted garden,1st tilled by a pig, then tilled.This is hügel beds and lasagna beds with sheep bedding. Potatoes, squash, dent corn. Our old friend @arcticvelocipedist.bsky.social would be delighted by the hügel beds

Wow, our tiny market, open 5 hours a week, did over 3k in SNAP and over 3k in produce vouchers just this month in a city of only just over 20,000 people.

My loves foraged chanterelles while I was at work and then we harvested broccoli and kale.
I love my job. We’re building community, strengthening the local food system, nourishing people and making sure everyone has access to food. And I get cookies.
Humans are ok sometimes. 7am: An unhoused man was telling me how he got to shower to visit with his mom,he wears a 31 but tied a knot in his 36 pants to look nice for his mom. 1/3
Danielle is the sister of my 1st ever Twitter friend @killyhurts.bsky.social (D. Montoya) and could really use some help with classroom supplies this year. She can be trusted implicitly. Please share and consider donating if you're able. 📚
Danielle Montoya@d-montoya.bsky.social · 3w agoMost of these supplies are usually bought by my school. This year, we were told that they don't have the money. I am asking for assistance to help with these supplies for their homework/practice folders and some supplies for my room. Thanks in advance. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
I always said I don’t like sports. No one ever showed me mounted archery. Holy wow that is a sexy sport.

Look at my boy controlling those reigns to move that gorgeous mustang. She was spicy. He is spicier. They’re an amazing pair.
I’m n recent months I posted this might become a “horse girl” account and our friend AV made sure to say he was here for my “horseWOMAN account.” Anyway, I rode today without a saddle on a pad and the horse was spicy. Balance was hard. But I had fun!
A vegetarian came for a tour to convince herself to buy a lamb share since they’re having some health issues. She pet the sheep and now she’s not sure she can go through with it. 🥴 I get it.
