I want to thank @Penny M for joinin me for my first live today, we had a few hiccups at first with sound but once we figured ot out we had the best chat. It was amazing how similar we were in out thinking and views of the world, it's wonderful to fine another person to connect with. I can't wait till next week's live, anyone who wants to join us it's marked in my calendar Tuesday at 10am. Thank you again Penny 💓

We've had a few new comers to the community please give a warm welcome to @Josephine Shelton , @John DeBaie , @Melissa McShannock , @Douglas Mcphee , @Ilona Hirschfelder . Welcometo the community, thank you for joiningus. I ask all new members to jump in and say hi, introduce yourselves and tell us why your here. This community runs on participation, if you guys don't comment, ask questions, or give opnions there's no point in being here. We have an assignment were working on so go check it out, there are categories to choose from at the top of the page, generally discussion, canning q&a and so on one of them says weekly assignments & homework. Ask any questions you have and I love e suggestions for topics to discuss.

So for anyone who was planning on joining me on a live today I've had to postpone it till tomorrow morning. I thought this was a good time to ask people about attending a live . 1. Did anyone even know I was going live today? You should have received an email yesterday to tell you, did you get it? 2. Are you interested in attending a live? This is something I plan to do weekly, Tuesday at 10 am for 30 minutes. I'm only going to do this if people are interested ofcourse, I talk enough to myself when I'm not being recorded. 3. In the live we will talk about what ever people want to talk about, I'm hoping to have the topic picked ahead of time so let me know what you want to know or we could just chat. Please respond to this post so I know what people want.

I hate making posts like this but I need to be transparent about these things. We lost one of the baby goats, she looked strong and was nursing well but sometimes there are things I miss or the universe decideds nope not this one. I don't know if it could have been prevented but I do know she wasn't ment for this world. Nature does as it wants and sometimes I find when there are 3 one dosen't make it. I'm not sharing this for sympathy and I'm not sad, we are no strangers to loss on the homestead. If you plan to do this you need to prepare yourselves for it because it will always happen.

Let's welcome in @Autumne Shaw , @Jean Phyllis R. Cardona , and @Work With Lizzy . Please tell us a bit about yourselves. We have a few poles going on if you would give some feed back that helps me know what direction we should be heading as we move in to spring.
