Soap Box | November 30, 2013 For several years, I’ve wanted to make changes in my lifestyle. For instance, I have not been happy with how much I drive around town. I used to ride my bike everywhere, but as my schedule filled more and more, I had less and less time to commute, so I drove …
At the beginning of the year, I had this crazy idea that I would do the Pilates 100 exercise once on the first day of January, twice on the second day, three times on the third, and so forth, seeing how far I could get. I started to video my 100’s, partly to keep myself …

I have always wanted to live on a farm embracing not the simple life but the essential dirt, hatchings, birthings, hardship, death, compost compost for the soul sweet grasses sweet trees wildness and domestication side by side sisters the essential piling up like the photos on the piano carefully each month I pull them down …
