And so it begins...

A friend of mine, who shall not remain nameless (*cough*...Wendy), helped me decide to start a new blog. I already have one, specifically having to do with homesteading, at www.homesteadblogger.com/OurLadysWindyAcres, but what the heck...I'm a homeschooler with nothing more to do than eat bon bons and play on the computer all day, just like Wendy, so I thought...why not? What's another blog between friends? Or strangers for that matter!

Therefore, a wee introduction. I'm Fiona, have one DH (one is hard enough to break in, I'm not likely to go for bigamy - too much work!), 7 blessings on earth, 1 in Heaven, 1 great son-in-law, and our first grandbaby on its way! We live in the Midwest on a small "hobby farm"...heck of an expensive hobby to start, let me tell you! We're trying to become more self-sufficient and in my dream world I'm off the grid and nobody knows I exist LOL!

I'm unapologetically Catholic, although I'm working on Apologetics (no, it doesn't mean having to say you're sorry!). Love genealogy, first gen American having immigrated in the late '60s, reading, learning to do crafts, cooking, gardening on some days not on others, blah blah blah. Enough about me. Comments????
