Frightening and so appealing at the same time:
"We were planning a functioning homestead, not a business; nevertheless we tried to be systematic as though we were handling a large-scale economic project. Our card index of activities had a place for 'jobs to be done', divided into 'clear weather jobs' and 'rainy day jobs', for 'construction planned', and for 'finished projects.' Each project had its cost cards with records of materials used and money outlay for specific purposes. Separate loose-leaf books . . . contained the plans, current activity reports and records from previous years."
