I said in last month’s goals round-up that August would be the month where we were drowning in flowers, and . . . I was right. I put in crazy hours this last month harvesting, prepping bouquets, and then marketing those bouquets (or directly selling them at the local flower’s market), and I can definitely …
Seeing as it’s been a loooong time since I’ve done a house update (around 6 months, in fact), I figured it’s high time I give a progress update on how the house and yard projects we wanted to complete in 2021 are going. When I made up the list in February, we were still riding …
In case you’re new around here, I’m currently working on my second 101 in 1001 list, which is a list of 101 goals or things I hope to complete/do in 1,001 days (which translates to about 2.75 years). This format for goal-setting has been highly motivating for me because it combines the power of a …
Well, here we are in August already — my oldest starts first grade in two weeks (seriously?!), everyone’s trying to cram all the last-minute summer parties and fun in, and we are positively swimming in flowers from our cut flower farm here at the house.

While we still had a good number of things we had to work on and do in June, it was overall a much more laidback month than any of the previous spring months as the flower farm was mostly all planted out by the end of May (which freed up an enormous amount of time …
Even though it’s been three months since my last report and I’ve been planning to do these quarterly, I was seriously tempted not to post an update this time around. You see, it feels like we’ve made almost no progress over the last quarter, at least when you compare it to the quarter just before …
Welp, it’s happened again, just like last time—I’ve found that so much has changed in the last 8 months since making my second 101 in 1001 list that many of the goals are no longer relevant, or at least no longer top of mind. (I mean, I didn’t even CONSIDER that starting a flower farm …
Since March 1st, I have literally been going pretty much nonstop on flower farming stuff with every single spare second I had. But now, after three solid months of craziness, the flower farm is basically 100% planted out (with the exception of a few succession plantings of things that are still in the grow room), …
