Why so silent?

Greetings loyal followers and random passersby. You're probably wondering why it has been so silent around here. It's not for lack of work around the house - believe me, there are a ton of things going on! I figure I've got enough for two weeks of posts about all the different things we're up to.

Alas, the one thing not working around here is our computer. It can manage one application at a time, sometimes two. But it just can't handle pictures anymore. And we have to forcibly restart it several times a day to kick-start its brains.

So you've been missing out on our trip to the state fair, making ketchup, work in the rain garden, tons of scraping and painting, sewing, building our new root cellar, and more! But never fear, we'll be getting a new computer soon and you'll have blog-posts coming out your ears! So stay tuned...
