Tweet When I ask “who are y’all”, it is YOU I am asking. Not some other person who might be reading this a city or state or even country away from you..and not even that visiting neighbor who is reading this over your shoulder, but YOU! You see…I kinda know who you are in a general sort of way. The software I use to maintain my websites tells me little about my readers. For example, I know that 86% of my readers use the Firefox browser. I know that my “average” reader is a 34 year old stay at home mom, and from that I would guess that a lot of you are conservative middle America types. I know that about 68% of my readers [read more...]
After doing my weekly new scan for several topics, including yurts, I discovered this week that the perception of us yurt-ers is changing, that we are being considered less weird, becoming more and more accepted, and looked at as being less and less…well…less and less “nuts”. We seem to have become just a bit ahead of the curve, and yurts are becoming “trendy”!
Bummer!

The only place, really, for outlets is around the perimete of a yurtr, and who wants lamp cords running all over the place? The only thing you can do to find a place for lights is to look up…but there is no ceiling to install ceiling fixtures on…right? But, there ARE the rafters. Hmmm…
Rafters are the perfect place to install lighting. My electrical system runs from the electrical panel to all areas of the yurt by running the wiring along the outer edge of the yurt at the point where toe wall meets the rafters, with the wiring held in place by zip-tying it to the perimeter tension cable. From here you can go down the wall to low outlets and wall switches…or up along the rafters to lighting…but what kind of lighting?
Hi folks. I have a bit of bad news. Due t my having some extensive dental work done last week, that wasn’t completed when I thought it would be, the “JuicyMaters Living live!” show will not be broadcast this week.
Since there will be no show, neither will there be a recording of it up as a post beginning the next day, as is usual.
Thanks for y’all’s understanding. I have the greatest readers in the world…you!
Hi folks. Today we have a bit of Yurt Yak (insurance…you’ll be VERY interested), a bit of Family Homesteading (a few loose ends on last week’s show), and a message about next week’s JuicyMaters Living live! show.
Enjoy…and spread the word to like-minded folks!
