Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!
Howdy, and a fine morning to you!
We are getting nice big clumps of puffy snow falling, a precursor to what we expect over the next couple of days here in East Tennessee. It actually looks like our whole nation is expecting some snow, so we are all in the same boat.
I’m actually looking forward to hunkering down a little. We’ve been cleaning up Christmas decor and continuing our whole house sorting/decluttering/purging adventure. The more we haul off, the better I feel!
On that note, I’m off to haul some trash to the dump before the snow comes!
I’ve been working to post one thing I am grateful for each and every day. So far, I have found something. Today, I will add that in another post.
You can catch up on those posts on the regular blog, and also on Instagram or YouTube Shorts.
Here’s my last one.
Keep counting your blessings, even if it takes a minute to think of one!

Homestead Blog Hop will take place every Wednesday and is for all things homesteading: real food recipes, farm animals, crafts, DIY, how-to’s, gardening, anything from-scratch, natural home/health, self-sufficiency, self-reliance, natural remedies, essential oils, & more! Basically anything related to homesteading.
