I grew up with a systems analyst father who talked to me about programming problems, data management, and flow charts as I was growing up. He also prompted me to learn some Basic when I was in high school, and complimented my ability to shut down the early word processor prototypes he'd bring home. (Thanks Dad).

I was horse crazy and studied horses and trained horses from Junior High on and off throughout my adulthood, including a brief stint galloping racehorses before I became pregnant with my third child. After that we moved to Alaska, so my horse endeavors gradually fell by the wayside as I dedicated myself to trying to farm on clay while my mechanic (ex) husband worked on various vehicles in the yard after his day at the shop.

I homeschooled three children, raised all of our own meat for a decade, other than what we hunted/fished and occasional beef. I think this goes to the lifestyle ideals you discuss. I was also an active member of the Regroup Recycling club on the Kenai.

I do a lot of work with plants and recognize the individuality and sentience they have.

I'm very excited about the generational change into an abundance mindset.

SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED! 11 September 2018

I'm enrolled full time fall quarter at the local college in a "programming and networks" course of study. Full time tuition is fully paid. That seemed like a no-brainer. The courses I'm taking are each things I've been studying or using on my own- one on setting up Unix networks (okay, I wasn't trying to do *that specifically), Py, and a "Computers in business and science", which is building websites and making spreadsheets pop-

which should also increase my benefit to this project (hence the Unix, v Cisco, or v whatever MS is peddling the death merchants these days).

I'm hoping to be able to enroll in the remaining three Linux cert classes (20 hour/network and security) next quarter. Maybe I'll stop there. I've also recently learned I can access my transcript from the University of Oregon (buy me a cider; maybe I'll tell), so I am actually just a few classes away from my mythical BA.

Praise the gods and goddesses.

Always I'm telling people about the project. It's amazing what people don't get.

"So how does the project make money? Has the business started yet?" Talk about pushing against a backlog of programmed conditioning.

When even one implication hits though you can sure see it. Sometimes it takes a minute.

This is the Revolution, People. WE ARE THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION.

WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TRANSACTION.

Hmmm. That's a sweet little RAW meme. Not sure how to make the pic just post. I'll get to it later maybe.

Have a fabulous day.
