Yesterday...all my troubles seemed so far away?

This snail is my new best friend.  He came out of no where as I was sitting out at the table in the yard.  I was just drawing up some plans for my dream when I felt something on my foot.  I almost brushed him away until I noticed it was a super friendly snail.  I've never met a snail you could just pick up and move without it hiding away in it's shell.  It was a fun few minutes but then I had to put him back in the grass where he belonged. 

 

No good deed goes unpunished.  I came up with that saying the time when I was randomly trimming the hedges at GPs house and a bee stung me!  So, yesterday I was watering the garden and then I decided to trim back this flowering plant because it was getting out of control, and then ants started biting me!  Mosquito bites will go away if you don't scratch them, but ant bites stick around and itch like crazy!  It's like karma is all mixed up.  Get your shit together karma.

 

This summer I will have to practice my name remembering skills.  I'm really good at meeting a dog and knowing it's name right away (sometimes I mix their names up though) these days, but humans are another story.  I feel like I've talked about this before so I'll just make sure I remember this goal since I do keep bringing it up.

 

Hmmm...what makes me feel good?  Drawing up the plans to my dream!  The outline is to have land big enough for the following:

- My Live-in Studio/Gallery

- Large Greenhouse Garden

- Chicken Coup

- Doggy Haven

- Cat Haven

Doesn't that just sound like super fun?! Having everything in one place is good for me.  (My studio right now is about 3 miles away and I never feel like making the effort to drive the effortless way.)  I guess I wont be able to afford to build everything at once so I'll start with the house, then go with the garden.  After that I can sell some of the produce to start on the chicken coup.  Then I can sell the eggs and produce.  After that I can build the Doggy Haven which will hold at least 5 dogs rescued from death row.  Lastly I'll make the Cat Haven because I assume that cats get put on death row too and that's sad!  I can foster out the animals or adopt them out.  I'll need to figure out the odds and inns of all of these different things, but right now I'll just focus on perfecting the drawings.  BABY STEPS!
