One of the things I learned about marriage early on is that you have to respect each spouse’s strengths and weaknesses, and settle into a routine where together you manage to get everything done. I’ve always been the cook, generally in charge of figuring out what we’re going to eat and getting it out on the table. The garden, really, has just been a natural extension of that.

Hab Life, and Catching Up
I’m going to skip the obligatory “sorry I haven’t posted since 2016” preamble, and just say that it’s been a long five years. Things happen, things change, people get closer, people get further apart, and we become more aware of the things we care about and the things we don’t. So let’s just move on to the part where I catch you all up on life here at the Warren homestead. Assuming, of course, that anyone is still checking this blog from time to time.

Valleys and Farms
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Someday you’ll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you’ll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I’ve witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There’s so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun’s gone to hell and
The moon’s riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it’s written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We are fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
How Voting Works, and Florida in 2004
Only because I love all you guys, and have been reading too much about this lately, and so feel the need to spread some firsthand knowledge out there. You can rest easy about vote hacking next Tuesday.
Now I’m going to preface all this with the caveat that my information is a dozen years old. However, this is the government we’re talking about here, so I strongly doubt much has changed since 2004 in how this process works. But if you want to believe that either Russia or the global banking cartel plan to hijack voting machines in Wisconsin, I can’t help you. You’re probably, in fact, beyond help.
