I've made it a goal of mine to read every day! I started off in 2022 with book series I loved as a child but never finished, and I start 2023 the same. In this thread I will post each book as I finish it, so that I can look back at the end of the year and see my progress, since not all of the books on my tbr pile are physical copies, or even owned by myself.

Home ec and shop classes are disappearing and even the schools that still offer them have limited spaces. Understandably our schools are focusing on college prep, but that means every life skill you don't teach them is a life skill they'll have to outsource or teach themselves!
So teach yourself, teach your friends, and for goodness sake teach your children.

Growing up, my #neighbors and my #family worked together. Together we maintained a large vegetable #garden, processed and preserved food, and in general helped each other.
There's an expectation that you're a more beneficial provider to your home by bringing in an income, so that's what you should WANT to do, but I'd love to argue that skills for jobs you're currently outsourcing can be self taught and are absolutely valuable, and even increase in value if you pass them on.
