My New Found Philosophy, Garden Tear Down, and Hay Actifit Report Card: October 9 2019

avatar

Nearing completion of the garden tear down. Yesterday proved another semi productive day. After picking up my 9th hay bale I bought a new tarp to cover it all with. The price of a bale is the same as the tarp, but well worth it, $75 to save $700 worth of hay from rains and snows.

I am rushing the incoming freeze tonight. We are expecting 18F for a low so the garden needs to be done today. I am now down to just the tomatoes and tomatillos that froze and are now mush. They all have a ticket to compost.

The tarp fits really nicely and will be even better once I get all the bales individually covered in pallets bags. Those I will have by Monday.

Last night Spokane's south hill and the airport got 3+" of snow while we got just rain. Trees are down in town and schools got canceled. We woke to clear skies and not a flake anywhere. Silly micro climates.


Stoic Week

I have finally found the philosophy that is my life. I have signed up for and am taking part in Stoic Week. The ideas, concepts, exercises, historical writings, and most everything about stoicism is ringing SUPER TRUE to me. I am in my infancy in learning but feel like I have been mostly living as a stoic my whole adult life. Now I have the information and direction to further my understanding and integration into my being. More on my awakening in a later post, once I get a bit better grasp of what I am learning.

I love your garden and ur autark work.
Stoicism is awesome! But I found most of its essences already out by going my own way over nihilism. :)
I'm philosophing since I can think / remember. My teachers hated me.

Thank you!
I am positive no one "ism" has it all right, but this is by far and away the closest I have found to my own thoughts/mental state/life. I have not gone head long into a lot of the other "isms" but none of them caught me like this has.

My teachers didn't generally know I was there, but my military supervisors and higher ups did as I was nonstop questioning everything. They didn't like that too much. 😆

Yes. I also dont like -isms
-isms are always some kinda rulership.. but I'm very anarchistic
and also found that through nihilism, would call nihilism a good tool to understand anarchy..

I am NOT a fan of religions and pretty much all isms, but to my surprise this one is hitting very close to home. I am only on the first layer of the onion and I haven't even hit the meat of it yet so who knows.

I'm thinking it may very well help with ptsd. Stoicism is a large part of the basis for CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and I am finding that I already embody a large number of the principles but I am not LIVING them as much as I should.
