I arrived late in the season at Moonhill. Moving a bit more north and a bit more rural, I arrived to my new home both in the darkest and coldest time of year. I had to run around with weather striping and plastic for thin windows, scramble to secure wood for the old blaze king, and I spent days chopping frozen rounds in the snow.

The house perched on a hill, hence its name that it's had since the beginning, is dry, and its cedar walls give it a warm and cosy feel despite its high ceiling ... read more

I like taking on a new skill or habit each year and just to up the ante this year I joined the power of less 30 day habit challenge. A challenge that encourages daily reporting (you don't have to, but you can) . I like the zen habits blog and self-realizing online community that surrounds it. I thought it would be a good one to join. Below is a post from my daily report, and thought I'd share it as it is somewhat relatable to others organizing their text life.

Spinning Drum

Ahh, the scent of styrofoam and fresh circuitry, after lengthy research I finally obtained the proper midi control for my needs - The Akai MPK49. It has twelve drum pads, note repeat, an arrpegiator, 49 semi-weighted keys and 8 knobs and sliders. It also comes packed with a dozen or so presets for you to [...]

OK, so my roomie, Miss Bliss, and I talked it over last weekend and we decided as a household to take on the zero waste challenge. Inspired by a recent article in Ascent Magazine detailing one woman's waste free odyssey, it made me think it's time to take my environmental consciousness to the next level. So I have been doing my research, which mostly consisted at re-looking at what the f**k I was throwing in the garbage, and paying a visit to the local recycling depot to have a long chat about what they accepted, and what they didn't. It turned out in this day and age you could recycle quite a bit.

Already a low waste household, about one shopping bag every 2 weeks, our little cabin here at Latimers End seemed the perfect candidate to raise the bar on sustainability. Surely we, if anyone, had a good chance of doing away with our weekly trash pick-up. Certainly we could be using the can for other things. Already I'm thinking it would be a great robust vessel to mix up manure tea for the garden in, but welcome suggestions. One day it will certainly be a blog post all it's own - 101 Things To Do With A Garbage Can: Besides Throwing Garbage In It.

On FAITH

Faith is a state of openness or trust. To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don’t grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float. And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on. In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.

Today a good friend bemused about future hopes and dreams on her private blog, which unsually consists of no more than a few inspirational words - an almost virtual blog haiku - mostly directed at transformational potential. The responses mainly consisted of a few light-hearted quips, but amongst them was a little gem that deserves to roll on further into the blogosphere.

I’m trying to trick all my hopes and fears into the same bag where, like matter and anti-matter, they will annihilate each other in a brilliant flash and free massive amounts of energy.”

Thank-you Will for that flas
