http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Monday, September 13, 2010. It is still a beautiful world. Written by Max Ehrmann in the 1920s -. Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,. And remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender,. Be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly;. And listen to others,. Even to the dull and the ignorant;. They too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons;. You are a ch...

A Firm Tree: December 2009
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Monday, December 7, 2009. On top of it. It's entirely possible that I don't update this often enough. So Welcome to December! Since I haven't updated since. hmm. August . well, there are lots of pictures to share! I'll do a few now, and more later. There's been too much between then and now to even try covering it all, so I'll take a page from Kerouac and ramble like a madman. :). The cleaning lady came today, and I can't wait to go h...

A Firm Tree: April 2010
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Thursday, April 29, 2010. Stealth cat hides from the bothersome sunlight. (This is Angel.). The children told me we need a new cat. I told them no. Friday, April 23, 2010. I've had a little pipedream about small-farm life for years now. Well, really, as long as I can remember, it's been there. (Along with a few friends, like the "grade school teacher" dream, the "famous fiction writer" dream, and the "entrepreneur" dream.). It'll be f...

A Firm Tree: Weather.com, you done me wrong
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010/05/weathercom-you-done-me-wrong.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Monday, May 10, 2010. Weather.com, you done me wrong. Today, a garden update. Sometime in Mid-April, about 15 days before our last "normal" frost date, I looked up the 10-day forecast on Weather.com. They assured me that for the next 10 days, there would be no threat of frost. Well, hot diggity! I thought. "Then there's only 5 more days until the last risk of frost has passed! Then, this past Friday, I hear the unthinkable. Then on Mo...

A Firm Tree: March 2010
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Monday, March 15, 2010. Today, I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, water running, and I went to button the last button on my pants. And the button popped right off. And fell into the running water. And went down the drain before I could catch it. Some days, I swear. Like a sailor. Wednesday, March 3, 2010. Eso Si Que Es. I haven't updated in a while. Wow, that's a shocker, right? Larry and I have separated. It has bothered...

A Firm Tree: Charm-ing
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010/05/charm-ing.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Tuesday, May 18, 2010. First things first, updates, and then a story about my unparalleled sophistication. Everybody got new swim stuff for birthdays from Andy and Leanne. They are REALLY HAPPY about it. They got to wear it all to swim lessons on Thursday. Bear Hunt stepped in and rescued me one day when the boys were really tired and cranky. He just wrestled them to the bed and put a sleep spell on them. And now. telling on myself.

A Firm Tree: October 2010
http://lbsmithfamily.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Friday, October 29, 2010. Trying to come up with a name for the imaginary farm that I aim to bring to reality in the next two years. So far, we've got these as the best candidates:. From the Ground Up. Or a new idea? Thursday, October 14, 2010. I was so excited to be able to come here and say. I finally dumped my camera photos! And I finally organized all of them on Photobucket so they're easier to find! It's been a heckuva year so fa...

A Firm Tree: December 2008

Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. Friday, December 26, 2008. Christmas Bug, and other things. I did get most of this week off (which was by no means certain, what with all the impeachyness going around at work), and have loved every moment of it! We wrapped it all up, and came home. Glen got a bit carsick-y on the way, but we made it home and everyone went to bed. About midnight, he came in and told us he had a belly ache, and couldn't sleep, and could he plea...Those...
