I love fall. I love that the weather is starting to cool off and that life's pace is slowing down. We are eating more soup and I can bust out my favorite long sleeve shirts.
We've done a lot of the past month so let me catch everyone up.
My brother-in-law got sent to Switzerland for work at the end of last month and i decided to join him. I got to spend several days in Geneva while he worked at the W.H.O. and then we spent several days hiking in the alps and checking out small villages.
While I was gone, Firefly had a wood insert installed in our fireplace (we were going to do it after I got back but she wanted to surprise me)
Our Silkie hen went broody on us and stopped laying eggs and was also causing the other hens to slow down as well. To finally break her of being broody, I dunked her into a bucket of water. This is not as mean as it sounds. You have to find a way to cool her off and lower her body temperature. Dunking her in cool water on a warm day is the best/fastest way to do it.
Firefly has finished one chair and is getting ready to start on the second one!
I have a list of projects to make for Christmas this year and I'm also thinking of starting a wood working blog/website to start building my wood working portfolio. I really like old wooden toys and I think I might try and focus on making them. I like that they last a long time and don't contain harmful chemicals or metals. Maybe they'll even be passed down for a few generations. Stay tuned for more on this.
