I find this topic so fascinating! It started when a homeschool/back to the land blogger all of the sudden (at least to me) went alt right...wild.

You might also like the piece Meg Conley wrote over on Home Culture on a similar vein. Thanks for sharing your writing and other great writers too!

YES! I read this piece too! So you can imagine my surprise when I went to check out a recent follower’s grid and was like, uh, we are not talking about the same thing here.

Such lovely words on a chilly and damp Sunday. As my strength waxes and wanes, I’m learning to be kind to myself and to stop hating myself for being ill. Life is still full of small joys and surprises-they’re just a little quieter now. And knitting and reading still bring me peace.

Stay warm.

Love to you, Amysue. It can be so hard to quiet the inner critic, can’t it? Wishing you more of the things that being you peace.

How do you so often know what is unspoken in my heart? Thank you for your words, my friend, and for the quiet respite from the hustle and bustle of life. (also, realizes that I'm cold and goes to look for a blanket...)

Oh friend, I think it is because we are kindred spirits. 💙💙 Love to you, Sarah and Miss BB, and looking forward to tomorrow’s book discussion week!

I look forward to your email. I read and ponder while drinking my tea. Once again, I have so many thoughts on your words but yet, I feel the need to ponder and mull them over so I am at a loss for words.

Simply perfect. Every word. My heart rate slowed as I read, tucked under a cozy throw with Oslo in my lap. Sending gratitude, gentleness, and a heap of coziness to you and yours.
