I would offer to help with something but I think the only thing I could do would be to paint the toe nails and I would even do Jay's!!!:-)

OMG!!!! I don't even know you and I'm in shock. Did you really get all this done? I'm intrigued to see how you do it. I just moved to KS and hope to start a small farm near KC, I"m not sure I could do that. Have your read the book Radical Homemaker? You should be in the book!!
Thanks for the inspiration.
