Would you like to visit the Unassisted Childbirth Forum? It is a great place to meet other mothers of many, and many of the babies have been born into thier daddies' hands, with no outside help needed. It is a wonderful place of information on homebirth, unassisted birth, large families, one income living, homesteading and homeschooling. I have found it to be a wonderful resource for educating myself, and others to the normality of homebirth.The whole website is here.
I use PubMed in my research, do you?
I support breastfeeding, baby-led weaning, and tandem nursing, and breastfeeding anywhere a baby needs to be fed! Not in Bathrooms, or Hidden Places! Breasts are made for babies, so men have to learn to share! On the other hand, you see more breast on TV than you do when a baby is eating..... See the Compleat Mother Website
Want to get a midwifery education Long-distance? Check out

Don't take it laying down!
Educate yourself, and have a safer birth, at home!
Here is a picture of me with my goat,Brownie.
I have had lots of people email me to find out how I trained him. The directions are here. There are also links on that page(and in the table above) to figure out how to harness a goat and what kind of vehicle to get. I have found a source locally, in Seymour, TN. My wagon in the picture comes from Hoegger Goat Supply. They are really great people to work with. The wagon was actually made here in Virginia, by a Harrisonburg man....
Here are some pictures of my landscaping work.This is a picture of our house in Summer 2000, just after we had 14 large trees cut down. The yard had very little done to it since 1946, because my mother-in-law liked the "natural" look. In September 2003, Hurricane Isabel came along and took out two more trees, leaving me with a nice garden space in the uphill side yard. (When I say large, I mean minimum 125-150 ft height- we lived in one of the oldest original "subdivisions" in Petersburg. The house was built by my father in law in 1942-46. What looks like dirt under the tree is cedar mulch. This was taken during one of the worst droughts this area had seen in 150 years. Yes, we irrigate,rarely (never used it during summer 2004). Soaker hoses, discretely placed and a sprinkler system underground with Organic methods of pest control are used. We did all the work ourselves, except cutting the trees. All design, installation and mainenance is ours. My husband did the trenching for the irrigation system, I did the design, and we both installed it. He did the electrical connections, and I built the walls.
This house sold 3 weeks after we put it on the market, for a nice price...See also the site 1667 Varina Ave, a landscaping adventure.
This site is still under reconstruction-- Come back soon!
