Life and Being Sidetracked

 


I am posting this on all of my blogs in hopes that it inspires me and lets others know I am still around just have had some major things in my life come up, change or whatever. Life is really like a box of chocolates. hahaha

Life has a way of sidetracking a person and I feel many would agree the past 3 years has been interesting to say the least on many levels. Creativity and other things has been on hold while my life has been in constant flux of change some bad, but mostly good. Loads of changes with me, my farm, and the things I am doing. Some things get neglected or put on hold while the priority stuff that comes up always something new of course gets done first. I have decided to do some more inner work. When is a Scorpio sun ever not doing inner work most of us are always dying and rebirthing. Out with the old and in with the new. A common cycle for us as a water sign so it seems death and rebirth. My Taurus rising does complain about it though liking more stability and all. haha

I have been working in the greenhouse and landscape industry for the past year that has taken up a lot of time from about April to mid October 50-60 hours per week. Plus trying to work the farm and animals, be in a relationship (long story kind of), and have time for me to decompress from all of it. It was something I needed to do and so I did. Prior to this year 2022 I had worked at a small greenhouse. Thanks for the opportunity Jean. I needed to do more for income to help get necessary work and repairs done. Owning a place either in town or out in the country always needs upkeep and repairs which takes resources like money, time, and skills. I feel most would agree we are sometimes short on all three. 

Life is changing I found a new greenhouse and landscape job also inspires my creative side which is good. I really like the people I am working with another positive. I should be working more 'normal' hours with the option of some overtime if I would want it. This is a plus and I like the flexibility also. I am off until end of march for sure. I will be doing some resting, reorganizing, inner work, and some creative stuff. 

Lots of repairs on the farm and still more to do. It is a never ending job when things start getting older, weather causing some stuff, the same old thing as usual nothing really out of the ordinary to be honest. Time changes everything even us. I am getting older. haha

Winter is here in central minnesota so it is giving me time to do what I need to and get ready for spring, because as usual it will get busy quick and there is much to do. My intent is to get more things done in 2023 upgrades, repairs, etc. I have new family members my cat named Buddy I inherited from my boyfriend when he passed. My rabbit named chubbers I got from my friend Terri. They are both young and characters. The rabbit is better behaved than the cat. haha They are both loving little critters and a good addition to the family. I never have to fear not having children animals are always coming into my life when the timing is right. I will post pictures of both when I can get some. Until the next post. Happy Holidays from all of us on the farm.
