Family Selfie From 2016 Christmas Top left, Beau, Max, then Wulfgar and Cord and me in the middle.
I can't believe a year has gone by! What I really mean is I can't believe I haven't written a post in a year. So I decided to start with the latest family selfie. More grey hair - that's for sure but we are all still kicking. We were just getting started with the greenhouse build here on the mountain when we left off. Since then Cord has built 3 more client greenhouses and is working on the fourth. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the boys and Cord are working on our new, large greenhouse every chance they get. We have a deadline and I know they will rally and help us finish.
Such boys! The big ones came home over the holidays and we worked and worked. I cooked and cooked while they worked and yelled and worked and yelled some more. I feed them mostly hot meals when they are working in the cold full time FOR FREE for us - I really enjoy it and I've been flexing my cooking muscles all year. My crockpot never had so much action. It was super fun and they got a LOT done.
Latest news on Cord's health.
The last time we saw the cardiologist, Cord's Ejection Fraction was hangin' around 53-54. The doc is happy and says he is back to normal. He does not have to reach 60% as I thought - 50-55 is more like it. He has to take his heart medicine every day and wear oxygen at night. I am so grateful for this treatment - it works and it keeps him going. He seems as strong as ever and I can't imagine him any other way.
Homestead Progress
So here's what they have been doing in their "spare time" - - remember, the two buildings will be attached - making about 70' of continuous greenhouse (!!!!!!!!) and a 24' long SEED ROOM on the north side. I KNOW!!! We've been pouring concrete all winter - I have a floor - I have walls! One day my seeds will have a home. One day I will be planting tropical trees in the new greenhouse - can't wait.
