Re: What I Spend
I have been really interested in your experience with learning and working with your brain. My son just got diagnosed with ADHD a few weeks ago. I pursued the diagnosis because of behavioral problems and some curiosity if we could help him. DH was diagnosed as an adult and could have used some diffe...

Re: Just Gravy
What a shit show! But, I would be curious how everything would shake out once it became the “normal” thing that you worked part time. Like maybe the office just needs some fresh drama to take the attention off of you? Is there some drunken office party with the potential for embarrassment coming soo...

Re: Just Gravy
Ah, sounds rough to watch your Dad going through this. I’ve been an overplayed record with my in-laws about getting ready for old age. Very little has resulted from my harping, so now I’m resigned to watching a similar (possibly?) decline you are witnessing. What a great reality to have siblings tha...

Re: mooretrees journal
For the last two months I’ve got in around 21 hrs of deliberate exercise; x-c skiing, hiking, walking and biking and some treadmill comprise my cardio. I’ve dialed back the intensity in favor of consistency, acknowledging that I’m still not adapted aerobically to do much trail running without needin...

CRAP! I knew my lead was shaky, but I’m not quitting. Hitting the snow tomorrow, hoping for twice next week if I’m lucky.

Re: A Journey of Mindfulness--the Remaking of Life in Midstream.
Can you write more about the dramatic changes in your lower leg circulation? Also, I enjoy reading about your medical experiences, not boring at all! One area I am focusing on is rehabbing myself and problem areas. For me that is the hips, ankles and so on. I’m guessing you have some areas that need...

Re: Quail Haven, an ERE Mountain Enclave
Well we’re coming! End of March and maybe we can do some nature journaling and tinkering with motorcycles while we’re there? Plus cook sourdough flatbread, hike and long talks! Can’t wait.

Been there!!! Still figuring out how to keep us financially solvent, but holy cow is that minor stress worth it for the free time. Welcome to the slow lane of semi-ERE!

Re: mooretrees journal
10 trips now. Today was the longest I’ve skied yet, still under five miles. But I’m feeling like my movement is better, more efficient and graceful. I’m still nervous in icy snow going downhill….

Re: mooretrees journal
Up to 9 now! Was super tired from a good lifting session in the morning but still went skiing! Partly because DH kicked us out of the bus to work on the big electrical project and partly because you were catching up!

Re: Journal
Ha, I didn’t know you were a couple! Fun. I’ve gotten interested in a Japanese mending style called Sashiko, which definitely has a wabi sabi ethos to it. It’s hand stitching in the vein of visible mending. Any way, not really important but just a comment to say enjoy learning about sewing! sewing i...

Re: mooretrees journal
Alright @mooretrees. I have gone 5 times. I assume you are winning in this category. I have skied 123 km this season. Yesterday I skied 21km on 4-8 cm of fresh fallen powder on top of the grooming to try to catch up to you. It was mostly not fun. ha! Watcha got? I’ve gone 7 times! So win for me. Ho...

Re: You Don't Need Health Insurance
I’m gonna push back a bit on the “no plan for preventative care” comment. We’ve got a six year old and we haven’t paid for a single vaccine or well child check up his whole life. My mammogram is covered (at least the first image😜). When I was pregnant, I paid about $300 for my whole care during preg...

Can you go more into the oven less quiche?! We don’t have an oven and I’ve always loved a good quiche/frittata. We have a wood stove I could try for “baking” so I’m really curious!

Re: Cargo bikes
We had a cargo bike for a few years. It was built for flat places with too few gears for climbing any hills. It worked much better with the electric motor installed, though that also was temperamental. We had a trailer/stroller combo that was pretty useful. The one benefit with the cargo trailer and...

I don’t have any tax suggestions, but think it’s great you’re working on them. I hope to file by hand every year and chicken out every year… Super interested in what you and your DH’s criteria for where you settle. We haven’t found any problems with keeping our bus on other people’s properties for t...
