Stuff
Taking time off from kung fu classes. Will still practice as I'm able, on my own and at a slower pace. Therapy is having an effect, most of which is positive, but stability at speed is not at all what it should be, and the weirdness of uneven limbering up is being annoying.
More chigong and tai chi, and/or kung fu forms at tai chi-speed. Lots of soaking in the tub.
Less gardening this year, as that does a smashing job of wrecking me even more than kung fu.
Need new chair for computer station -- sitting too long in current chair is also worse than kung fu, doing a real job on the right hip and knee, down to the foot if I'm not careful.
***
Signed up for once a week class at Goldthread Apothecary and Farm -- 7 month program learning about growing, preserving, and using medicinal herbs. I got one of the scholarships too, which adds in writing up some blog posts and volunteering one day per month. This will tie in with the Ashfield New Futures group, as Goldthread will be bringing some herbs up for the community garden and I'll be one of the students helping with planting them.
***
House-hunting continues. Too bad we don't qual for more than we do, but hopefully we'll find a fixer-upper that is within our means at some point. Or land we can afford to build on.
***
A tiny bit of weaving happened this month, also a little spinning, mostly I've been sewing for craftiness.
***
Did do a little weeding and planted a few onions.
***
Need to box more stuff and get it out of the apartment!
