It just Really. Never. Ends.

Okay, so it seems that life as A Professional Gardener is sort of on hold. That's okay. I go back and forth in my estimation of my occupation. On good days, I'm doing what I love, beautifying the world for others, living in nature and helping all green growing things along, organically even. On bad days, I'm spending my dwindling days tugging the errand blade of grass from an area no one sees anyway, or shoveliing rocks. Usually, it's somewhere in between: I am doing what I love, which just happens to be tugging out errant blades and digging in the dirt.

There are other things that I want to pursue, however. I do want to write another book, dammit. I do want to draw more than I've been, and work on my colors. I've pretty much given up watercolors, incidentally - to work in watercolor, you have to be decisive, and I'm not, or at least not sufficiently, so I'm back to oil. If only for the smell. Linseed oil smells like....happiness.

We all know I want to fix up my house. We also know not to hold our collective breath; if we didn't, we asphixiated long ago.

One other thing I want to pursue. Waiora makes health products, and I've been using them for some time and been impressed with both the products and the company. http://my.waiora.com/home.php?255701 Yeah, it's a network marketing thing, although I didn't get into it for that - it sort of evolved after experience with the products and wanting to tell others about them. I'm not a bandwagon kind of gal, but someone I know personally has gone from working five days a week at an opthalmologist to working one day a week plus doing the Waiora thing, and that sounds good to me. It's not in my long range plan for my life, but I need to make more money and I'm trying really hard to learn to be open to anything instead of only what I think is appropriate or part of The Plan. So I'm willing to give it a shot, and to do that I have to sink a little time into it. And from the weather above, it looks like time is just what I've got along about now.
