Had a lovely walk with the #family my pictures of the life in the water didn't come out well. Enjoy the last light of the year.

Preparing for my annual brothers call. We have an ongoing challenge to see who has lived the best life that year. There's 13 categories, we have a 1 point, star, and 0 system. It's a mixture of judging individually and collectively, then we decide who or how many of us had the best year. I'm pretty such I stacked the most Satoshi. This has been great for bringing us closer together throughout the year. Along with giving us each a level of extra motivation to succeed at life, as we are each rooting for each other. #brothers #challenge #accountability #yearlypractice #permaculture #grownostr #nostr #lifesteading #bitcoin #zap https://image.nostr.build/504bcaab35689da7a0b7dfb4af6b857ae9e1d22675919ed26a2cb49e170b7db2.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1920x865&blurhash=Z3JQl%3F00009G00Io00%7EVRP00%25M%3Fb%252%3FHjFs%3A-oxa00-o%3FHxt-poK%25M4oIp00x%5B%3FbR*NGoft7IUt6&x=82bdcab44313ef98f79bd158873eb9803c8e87f08af4e83dd2dc08cdb6a09a1d

I've made it through 6 hours of editing for my next album. This is from two days of recording in August. These were group recordings, now I have the solo instruments to listen through which is about 3 hours. Then I have my own parts, about 3 hours. Finally the vocal parts another 3 hours. Then I need to put them all together, while constantly thinning down the mix. I'm certain when it done it will be more than a little original. It's a good thing I love this. The edits are ruthless, shooting from the hip. It's a bit like chiseling a stone for a statue. I find that if I second guess myself the project will take a decade.

Today my eldest and I crested this bushe de noel. About 4.5 hours for everything involved. It's one of our annual holiday activities that, and will be bringing it to a large dinner party tonight. My mother made these almost every year as a kid, and so it has become a bit of a family tradition that's getting passed along. #familytraditions #family #parenting #kids #ancestry #holiday #holidayactivities #permaculture #cake #foodie #meringue #grownostr #nostr #zap #bitcoin #memories #feast #friends #lovedones https://image.nostr.build/bbe709dfb62c3f09f86d1f8e86aa9b0e16d0c029041848d120841023963df225.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1920x865&blurhash=ZGI50x0L00-%3BMc-%3BMxWCaL%7Dn4%3BDioexujZkBWXoftK9uwJtR%25gWpkWa_V%408_o%7D-%3Bt8xtM_IpRPkC&x=0466b95178df41dd342b3c1b42cbd7aada5ea9a953999696d8c9cebafea7db73 https://image.nostr.build/92557f7216aa7c0b2ac910e127c572c4a914b514f57f69e2e9cf1a7a156aeb8e.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1920x865&blurhash=Z9He8%2Ctl0x0L%2354%3A%23rInV%3F00IqIAOtS%24n%2CxsNfk900%25K%7D%5B%24Kt7%24zXSxuog8%7BIVx%5EjcW%3DtRR*s8j%5D&x=8b80df612e267d5061d6642fd8c8f0a5136f7f2bdca6679fc28a705a938f63a7

IJust #rescued these #redwoods from the brambles. The three of them were planted about 5 years ago. I think this coming year will be the year that they get above the brambles. This area long ago was a home to redwoods, and these are part of a reforestation project to which around 200 #trees have been planted in the past 5 years. This will also #protect a #wetland from being overly exposed to the sun. Giving thanks for #workthatmatters #grownostr #nostr #fiatmining #bitcoin #zaps #permaculture #care #earthcare #lifesteading
