The Need for Warmth

I do not do very well in cold weather, it brings aches and sickness. When the dying seasons (Fall & Winter) approach, I want to escape the North like the birds and fly South.  . . . and in truth, I would never fly back North, making a permanent home in the warmer Southern parts of our country right along the Ocean .  . .  or anywhere .  . . in the World . . . would be fine.

Since living in Paradise, sipping on non-alcoholic Pina Coladas or fresh coconut water, swimming in clear blue-green water, riding the waves is not my current reality, I must find ways to cope with my situation.
When warmth is not found outside, then we must create warmth inside our homes, our kitchen, our bodies. . .

Community Garden


We have been busy trying to get our community garden on it's feet. If you have been following this blog, you know that I put 100% into everything I do. Since, I put so much love and energy into it, sometimes I get burnt out or just burned by others. However, I can't see doing it any other way. With Noor Janan Homeschool, it has been a little of both. A couple of comments that were left has me reassessing what I am trying to do with this blog. It is such a huge responsibility to run it all on a volunteer basis. I think some people may forget that I have a family and other responsibilities and I am doing this as a service to others with no financial compensation. I think some people may forget that I am a person with feelings and usually the most creative people are the most sensitive.
