My two kids are unschoolers and home with me, so I have to be flexible. When I have my druthers, I prefer to work early in the day, break for lunch and a short nap, spend until my daughter’s bedtime with my kids and husband, then go back to the computer for a couple of hours at night.

When I sit down at my desk, I light a stick of incense, put on my handknit woolen socks because my floor is cold, and have my notebook in front of me to jot down things I want to remember or work on next. I have a big white coffee mug but it often holds tea.

I’ve just discovered WordPress after using blogger for my first blog for a year. I love your blog and have learned so much from you. Thank you and please keep the posts coming. I also like your salad because I hate lettuce but love tomatoes, cukes, onions and olives.

Shine On,
Lill
